We’ve said this event will be a bit of a reunion. It’s been three years since we’ve gathered as a community. So, we’ve invited back some of our favorite people from past national conferences and also engaged some new faces. We’re anticipating that God wants to use these friends to teach and inspire us. Please pray for our general session team.

Allison will be speaking at our Women’s Luncheon on Wednesday, Dec. 7. |
Allison Allen is a woman who has spent a lifetime walking in the shoes of others and champions the power of narrative to engage and restore the human heart. As a student she was chosen as an Andrew Carnegie Scholar at the prestigious acting program at Carnegie Mellon University. After graduating from CMU, she landed on Broadway, for two years, in the original cast of the revival of Grease. Along the way she has written or co-written numerous plays and musicals, including Magdalene. She now uses her gifts to teach the Bible all over the country, and loves nothing more than watching people run head-long into the freedom that Jesus offers. Of late, Allison has been tickled pink to be the 5’12” spiritual wing-woman to Lisa Harper on the well-received podcast, Back Porch Theology. She is the author of two books: Shine; Stepping into the Role You Were Made For and Thirsty for More; Discovering God’s Unexpected Blessings in a Desert Season (Revell). Allison has been married to worship pastor, Jonathan Allen, for a quarter of a century. Together they have two delightful sons, Luke and Levi.
