Speakers | Woman After God's Own Heart

SPEAKERS & GUESTS

Lynda Randle

Creator of the Woman After God's Own Heart conference, Lynda Tait Randle has allowed the heartache and pain she experienced in childhood to be used as a vehicle of Hope and inspiration, not only through music but through speaking and sharing her story of being victorious in Christ. She wants women of all ages and backgrounds to know how deeply they are loved by the Father.

In addition to hosting WAGOH and speaking, Lynda will also be sharing some brand new music from her upcoming EP's "Free to Love" and "By The Riverside" with some special guests!

The Katinas

Since the days of their youth playing in their father’s church worship band, Sam, Joe, James, John and Jesse strive to touch people’s hearts through music with message. They have traveled the globe by way of American Samoa with the mission of hope and love at the heart of their vision. In a world of constant change and uncertainty, their commitment to this mission has been unwavering. Who you are, where you’re from, what you believe, it does not matter. The love of Jesus Christ is a gift for us all.

Mandisa

One of the most commercially successful contemporary Christian and gospel vocalists of the late 2000s and early 2010s. Mandisa sang in her church and has continued singing Christian and Gospel music on all her records. In 2006, she competed during the fifth season of American Idol.

Mandisa continues to share her testimony and encourage women to put their trust in God. "I wish that I had all the answers, but at this point I say, ‘Okay God, I’m either gonna trust you with all of my heart, or I’m not. There’s no middle ground here. I’m going to let the value and the weight of the character of God outweigh my need to know or understand.”

Lisa Mills

Lisa Mills is on the road and building a successful full-time comedy career and speaking business from the ground up. An accomplishment she credits to that one moment of insane courage years ago, while standing on that stage telling jokes and sharing hope with some amazing women.

Convinced that there are more things that unite us than separate us, she brings all types of people together through laughter. Lisa’s hilarious authenticity makes her a definite dynamo to any program.

Shannon Benton

Shannon is the founder of the Divine Call Dance Team. After a few years dancing as a guest artist, she is excited to dance with Störling Dance Theater full time. She continues to teach dance and is a faculty member for Störling Conservatory.

Identity is another key topic of our day. Shannon explains that if we listen to the world’s ideas for identity, we will have a hard time finding a “place to stand,” but if we look to our Creator, our identity is built on a solid foundation. May you be encouraged by Shannon’s words to be faithful as you walk in your calling as an artist.
