All Access

Now Look Where We Are

Pam Case - June 5, 2008

It's a new day for LifeWay Women. We're stepping out into the blogosphere.

This is LifeWay Women All Access.

So, why have we jumped online, smack dab in the middle of it all?

Well, studies are telling us that blogging is now mainstream among us ladies. Seems that more than a one-third of us aged 18 to 75 are blog participants. Out of those of us online, 53% are reading blogs, 37% are commenting and 28% are writing and updating blogs.*

That's a lot of us grown-up girls cruising the web.

It only made sense that we provide a blog home for accessing what we do at LifeWay Women. But we wouldn't settle for just a little access. We wanted to give you real insight into our world at LifeWay Women. Our plans are to include behind-the-scenes looks at the life and times of what we do. As a ministry. As a business. And lots of fun conversations with and about our ever-growing roster of women authors and platform speakers behind the awesome Bible studies and LifeWay Women's events we produce.

As time passes, we'll introduce you to the women (and yes, a few men too) who help make up the LifeWay Women's team. I'm not real objective when I talk about these teammates. They are some of the best in the biz, with hearts for following Christ like no other!

My fellow "bloggers" on this site are five fabulous ladies who know and love LifeWay Women. Some of the ladies work daily within the walls of our Nashville offices. A couple of others are long-time LifeWay Women followers who we brought on board to help us tell our story on a regular basis. We think you'll enjoy the insights brought regularly by each one. (I'd stop right now and bookmark this site!)

Allow me a moment to introduce the LifeWay Women bloggers:

Meet Kris. She's the lead marketing strategist for LifeWay Women.

Meet Dawn. She's also a marketing strategist for LifeWay Women, with specialty focus on African American women and churches.

Meet Paige. She's the Director of LifeWay Women's Events.

Meet Melanie and Sophie. They are two of LifeWay Women's biggest fans, sharing thoughts and real life moments from outside the walls of LifeWay, with a touch of family fun and humor, just to keep us honest.

And then there's me, Pam. As Director of Women's Ministry for LifeWay Women, I simply consider myself "glue", just trying to hold it all together.

It's going to be an interesting ride. And we don't plan on riding alone.

As we move forward in this new venture, we'll welcome your comments and questions. We'll be moderating every comment that comes our way on a regular basis with plans to be snappy in our response.

We're even going to introduce an exclusive opportunity for YOU to help us create an upcoming Bible study by Priscilla Shirer that releases next year. You sure won't want to miss the chance to participate in that.

So, allow me to be the first to say "welcome to LifeWay Women All Access".

May God richly bless this opportunity to interact with you in a brand new way. We at LifeWay Women commit this place to His work, for His glory alone.

"Commit your activities to the Lord and your plans will be achieved"
- Proverbs 16:30 (HCSB)
