From Previous Attendees

“I was only able to attend online, but what a blessing it was to feel the warmth and hope of the conference, even through my computer screen.

I've gone back multiple times to the encouragement of many speakers to be "close to the Source" as we seek to tell great stories for the glory of God.”

— Sarah

“I absolutely loved the atmosphere of the whole experience. It was very engaging and friendly. I loved being surrounded by fellow authors. I was very impressed by the speakers and learned a lot from them. I came home feeling motivated to continue my writing project and serve my readers by bringing them positivity and love.”

— Aleigha

“One of my most favorite things about this conference was that the speakers and authors were gracious enough to "live among us." There was no waiting in long lines to talk for thirty seconds to an author sitting behind a table. Every speaker was approachable, kind, patient, down-to-earth, and generous with his or her time.”

— Jussley
