Revelations 12:11 
“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, 
and the word of their testimony;
and they loved not their lives unto the death.”


2026 Breakout Sessions

Jen DeBrot                       Embracing Change
If you're needing to embrace the change that's come, rediscover your identity in Christ, and rebuild your life after divorce, I invite you to join us for this breakout session. My prayer is that you'll be able to release the broken dreams of the past and step into a future filled with hope, purpose, and newfound joy. I look forward to welcoming you and walking alongside you on this journey of rediscovery. Isaiah 43:18-19 "Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland."

 
Selena Stevenson           Faith That Stands Under Fire
The lives of the martyrs challenge us to examine the depth of our faith. As Kingdom citizens, we are called not only to confess truth but to live it—no matter the cost. This session explores what it means to remain steadfast when faith is tested through pressure, threat, persecution, and injustice. Discover how unwavering obedience to God’s Word shapes a faith that endures.
A sacrificial life—yielding what God has called us to surrender and dying to self—prepares our hearts for the most precious treasure of all: Jesus Christ.
 
Sharon Jolliff                    What’s your Story
Scripture is comprised of God’s story, of Himself, of mankind and of His plan to redeem man. 
The interesting thing of God’s story is there are many facets but the same outcome. So it is true of yours and my stories. But how do we share those with people that pass through our lives?  We may only have five minutes, or maybe a few hours. Maybe we are on a journey with them for a long time. How is my story, which is God’s story impacting them?
 
Tami Nederhoed              Testify with Purpose:  Developing the Story God Gave You
As women, each of us has a God-story—a testimony of His faithfulness woven through our lives.  We carry a unique story shaped by His grace, strength and presence.  Our stories can inspire courage, deepen faith, and empower others in their walk with Him.  How can we communicate them in a way that resonates, makes a lasting impact and truly connects?  This session is designed to help answer that question!
 
Rita Caviness                    What If Persecution Comes?
When the world strikes at your faith, it only echoes what it once did to your Savior. We will face storms and persecution if we are truly serving GOD!! .... FAITH GROWS FEARLESS UNDER FIRE!!
In the storms of persecution, the anchor of faith holds fast. WE will not be DEFEATED by the one who sounds like a roaring LION!!
 
Chandra Warren               Living Fearless
How can we live fearless in the midst of persecution?  How can we continue to have hope and stand in faith, when we are tried in the fire? God has given us many examples to learn from. Let’s look at Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego. They refused to bow before a golden image.  The king issued an order to have them thrown into the fire, but our God was in the fire, glory be to God.  (Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abed-Nego are some stories in the bible we can glean from.  We will look at the life of Paul, the Apostles, and more.  Most of all, we can stand on the promises of God that were given to us.


Kerri Kilcoyne                   Raising Fearless Children
In a world that pressures children to blend in, God calls them to stand out—set apart, bold, and unashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ. This workshop equips parents, leaders, and mentors to intentionally raise children who know the truth, speak the truth, and live the truth. We will explore how to disciple kids who pray boldly, lay hands on others, share the gospel with confidence, and live unashamed of their faith at school, at home, and in their communities. Through biblical foundations and practical tools, participants will learn how to cultivate courage, discernment, and deep conviction in the next generation—raising kids who don’t just follow Jesus quietly, but follow Him boldly.


Heather Smith                  Anchored, not Anxious
In a world that feels loud, uncertain, and constantly shifting, this message is an invitation to return to center. Anchored, Not Anxious is about staying grounded in faith, clear in your calling, and steady in the middle of life’s storms—without being pulled by fear, noise, or pressure. Learn how to live led by the Lord, rooted in His purpose, not rushed or reactive, and confident in who God has called you to be.
 
Katrina Ford                      Stones of Remembrance: Teaching Our Children in Everyday Moments
God instructed His people to build memorials so future generations would know what the Lord had done. In this breakout, we’ll explore how ordinary moments—dinner tables, car rides, bedtime routines, and daily conversations become sacred spaces where faith is passed down. This session will equip us to intentionally recount God’s faithfulness so our children can walk in the freedom we’ve laid hold of for them.
