Introducing our Health Talk with Pastor Verna Hughes of AVC Medical!
 
During this Breakaway Session Pastor Verna will share her personal journey with weight and MENOPAUSE. Don’t get caught off-guard by the the big “M” word, come and be equipped on what to expect and how to cope with peri-menopause, menopause and their effect on your weight.
What if the chapter you’re in isn’t the end of your story?
 
Sometimes we find ourselves feeling a bit stuck and unsure of what’s next. How do we embrace tomorrow when we’re afraid to move forward, or if we’re wondering whether we’ve missed what God has for us?
BUT what if your story is still being written?
 
We’re so excited about the Business Breakaway Session at Arise Fearless 2026!

My years in fashion have given me an eye for detail, presentation and design, while my experience in business has taught me how to negotiate, build relationships and never give up. My main focus now is helping people buy and sell property and building a successful real estate career with Keller Williams.
  
I’ve always loved working, growing and pushing myself beyond my comfort zone. At this stage of my life, I have the experience and confidence to know what matters to me, and I’m excited about what lies ahead!”

How can we best protect our children in online spaces? The dangers are many, and as parents, we keep learning every day. BUT we are not called to live in fear. We have a God who equips us for every battle.

This year, Debbie Hemmens will host a practical workshop focused on the steps we can take to protect our children and teens in a digital world. We’ll explore some of the online risks young people face, such as:

  • Grooming & catfishing
  • Cyberbullying
  • Sexting & sextortion
  • AI deepfakes, altered images & screenshots
  • Gaming & digital addiction
  • Social media and its impact

Debbie will share preventative strategies and the practical ways parents and families can respond. We don’t want our children and teens saying, “but I didn’t know, or why didn’t someone tell me.” We want them to know what to do, who they can talk to and how to make wise choices.

Girlfriends, there is a battle in the spiritual realm, and we are God’s invading army, on the attack, bringing light into dark places. This year, we are thrilled to have one of our keynote speakers present a powerful intercessory workshop where we’ll be equipped for warfare. Make sure you sign up, space is limited. 🌿🐅
 
“A final word: Be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on all of God’s armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. 12 For we[a] are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.”
Ephesians 6:10-12
