An experience designed to inspire passionate leadership in today’s Christian woman
We all crave a place to retreat and reflect. Busy with careers, children, spouses, and community commitments, our bodies were not built for endless activity. Inspire is creating a space for women to withdraw from the hustle of everyday life. We believe we are better when rested and restored. We invite you to simply take a few days and breathe.
Discover who you are as a leader. Connect with like-minded women. We believe women are uniquely equipped to face some of the most challenging issues facing our world today. At Inspire Experience, we encourage you to deepen your roots to yield more fruit. This weekend is designed to deepen our personal and collective strengths and visions.
Lead where you feel most alive! Move forward. Press on. Inspire allows you to draw inspiration from those who have been there in order to take the next steps towards the things you were created to do. We believe God calls us to take what we know and make a difference in our communities and throughout the world.
