Speaking


Kendra and Julie have been speaking to a variety of women's, moms, and MOPS groups over the past several years, and they'd love to speak to yours! They create their messages for break-out sessions, full-day conferences with multiple sessions, or anything in between. They cover topics such as intentional kindness, teaching kids to be kind, hospitality, trusting God, prayer, faith, redemption, freedom, rest, gratitude, friendship and healthy community, and finding your purpose. They can also tailor their talks to a specific topic. (Although Kristin loves to write, she is not available for speaking engagements.)

Some titles of talks the girls have given are: Intentional Kindness: How Random Acts of Kindness Changes Lives, Living Among: Sharing our Faith by Sharing our Lives, Giving Christmas Away, Cultivating Hope Throughout a Lifetime, Identify Theft: Finding Who You are in Christ, Nurturing your Dream: Assessing your Gifts, Healthy Friendship: Three Keys to Finding, Keeping and Loving Your Friends and The Character of God: Clinging to What is True.

We've also done a 6-week series titled: Welcome to the Sisterhood: Exploring what it means to be a woman who loves God and loves others. Kendra and Julie spent six weeks exploring what it means to be a spiritual sister to one another, what healthy sisterhood looks (and doesn’t look) like, and what it means to be sent on mission into the lives of those who surround us at work, school, in our neighborhoods and beyond. You’ll be encouraged, inspired, pushed out of your comfort zones, and launched into the plans God has next for you individually and within the context of your Sisterhood community.

If you’d like more information or would like to inquire about having either Julie or Kendra speak at your next event or weekly series, email us at theruthexperience@hotmail.com.

Testimonials:

“Anyone who gets to hear Kendra and Julie speak will be beyond blessed! They use their biblical knowledge and gift of words to bring God’s word to life; teaching, encouraging, equipping and challenging everyone to go deeper in their relationship with the Lord. Kendra and Julie leave the “surface” behind by authentically sharing personal stories; successes and failures of practicing what they preach. I would highly recommend inviting them to speak at your next event!” -Myndee, Women's Ministry Coordinator

"Our MOPS group has enjoyed having the Ruth Experience come and speak to our group the last two years. Their messages related to our group as a whole, and we appreciated that they were rooted in God's truth. I would recommend them if you are looking for a speaker for your group or event." -Amy, MOPS Leader
