The following is a small sampling of some of the topics Darlene can present at your event.  She would also be pleased to adapt a message that will suit your theme.

Darlene's desire in her speaking is to encourage women in their walk with Jesus Christ by giving them a hunger for God. She does so with scriptural insight, practical truth, and humor. Below is a sampling of some of her messages:

1. "Getting Back Our Groove" - As women we sometimes loose sight of who we are and what we are designed for. This session takes a close look at how our image was distorted through original sin, but recreated through an intimate relationship with Jesus Christ, that enables us to pour out our lives as a sweet fragrance that glorifies God.

2. "Running The Christian Race" - What does it take to stay in God's race and finish strong? This session will give women the "five essentials" that will help them keep on track and experience personal spiritual growth in the process.

3. "Friendship Is Highly Overrated" - Life is short!  Let's move beyond just "warm and fuzzy" relationships and learn how to make a significant impact in one another's lives.   And who better to teach us than Christ Himself?  In this session we take a look at the impact He made on His disciples and learn how we can follow His example.

4. "Life With God" - The Apostle Paul tells us in Acts 17:28 that believers "LIVE, and MOVE, and EXIST in Jesus Christ."  This session focuses on the character, quality, and vitality of the Christian woman who desires to live life 24/7 with the One who is life.  

5.  "Why We Try So Hard" - Let's gather together and examine the REAL reason why we are on overload.  How can we tell if our schedule is God-appointed, or self-imposed busyness that stems from a need to prove our worth!

6. "Transformed Thinking" - As women in a vital relationship with Jesus Christ, what should be different about the way we think?  In this session we bring into focus the power of having "the mind of Christ," and learn how NEW THINKING can transform our negative thoughts into positive, our doubts and fears into faith, and the distortion of truth into reality-living.

7.  "What A Woman Really Wants" -  As women, we need to sort through the deep issues and longings of our hearts.  We then need to evaluate whether or not we are allowing God to fulfill these longings.  In this session we discover that much of what we think we want may not be what we really need.

8.  "God's Prescription For Spiritual Health" - Is our life flowing from the natural or the spiritual?  This session takes a look at God's prescription for spiritual health from eight principles given to us by Christ  in the Sermon on the Mount.

9.  "Managing Stress So It Doesn't Manage Us" - Stress in a fallen world is inevitable and inescapable.  Let's come together and discuss a righteous way to balance our stress, and experience the peace and contentment God has for us.
