ROLL CALL for Birmingham...here we come!

We, LifeWay Women, are thrilled as we look ahead to this week! The first days of December may be packed with decorating and Christmas shopping for many, but for us it is one of our biggest events of 2010!

In a short two days we will be in Birmingham, Alabama for the YOU Lead (Leadership training pre-conference) on December 2-3 and then Deeper Still: The Event on December 3-4 with Beth Moore, Priscilla Shirer, and Kay Arthur!

We experienced an incredible Deeper Still event earlier this year in Denver, Colorado and are anxious to see what the Lord does in our hearts and lives in Birmingham. Any of you who attended the Denver Deeper Still can encourage those who will be in Birmingham this week with your testimonies and stories. We always love hearing your stories and how God worked through Deeper Still!

It really is like an unopened Christmas gift every time we enter an arena. We've prepared and prayed for you for months. We anticipate your arrival. Then as doors open we see your smiling faces and the gift of God's grace is unwrapped! Did I already tell you that we can't wait to see you in Birmingham this week?!

Just for fun we would love to hear where everyone is coming from, who you are coming with, and how you are getting to Birmingham! So let the ROLL CALL begin! Birmingham Deeper Still here we come!

Pssst--if you can't make it to Deeper Still join us for .mom in Birmingham in September!

I gave my daughter-in-law the tickets for her birthday so that we could attend together.I want to grow closer to my two daughters-in-law and believe this will be a great opportunity. Please pray for my younger son and his wife they have 4 month old twin sons so she could not attend this time. Pray that the twins will both continue to be healthy and will grow up knowing Jesus as their savior

This weekend was nothing short of fabulous! Kay, Priscilla and Beth spoke with such conviction and love. God answered my prayers as Kay began to speak Friday night. He knew how badly I needed to hear from Him. Praise God!

Thank you for all the effort put forth in bringing these 3 godly women to Birmingham. I left with much to treasure. Please come again soon!

Merry Christmas to all!

Michelle,

I absolutely LOVE the Deeper Still opening video and wondered who wrote the readings from it and the painting segment? Are they available in print anywhere??

It was a great weekend!!

Blessings,
Dori

As far as I know that was written specifically for Deeper Still by Travis Cottrell and is not in print anywhere. It was created by our production team. The same thing for the painting...what we call art reveal. The artist Nate Griffin with our production team and Stephen Proctor with production worked with Travis and the event coordinator, Betsy to create and add an experiential element to that portion of the worship. I don't think they are captured (maybe archived footage) and can only be seen at the live events. So glad you were blessed and God used it to draw you closer to Him!

Hope you will be able to make the final Deeper Still in 2011 in Kentucky!
