Come Away and Rest with Jesus

In a chaotic, stressful world, we can find rest in Jesus, our Creator, who promises to restore us and all of creation. This Bible study digs deep into Jesus’ own words and example to see how He is our rest.

Stephenie Hovland is a Christian speaker and author, deaconess and teacher, wife and mother. She loves to camp and invites you to join her in faith conversations, like friends sitting around the campfire, enjoying God’s creation.

Lori Merrill

Godly Priorities for Women- Titus 2 & Proverbs 31

Lori and her husband Steve have been married for almost 40 years. They have 3 children and 5 grandchildren. Because of Lori’s need to understand how to be a godly wife and mother, she began to study God’s Word for the answers. This passion eventually led to a Bible study for women based on Titus 2 & Proverbs 31, titled, Called to be a Keeper and then, the Little Keepers curriculum followed. She is also the author of Jesus, Our Perfect Example. Lori recently retired from Keepers Ministry after 21 years. Lori resides in Edmond, OK where she enjoys leading a home Bible study for women and she and her husband lead a class at their local church. Lori loves spending time with her grandchildren, playing pickleball with her friends (and husband) and reading.

Faith Gladem

Anchored In His Presence - The Practice Of Christian Mindfulness

Faith Gladem is a devoted wife, mom, grandma and passionate follower of Jesus.  She also loves coffee, deep conversations, laughter, the sound of the wind through the trees, falling snow and falling leaves and so many other beautiful moments large and small.  With each passing year her faith continues to deepen and her excitement for sharing God's love grows.  Faith was created to love God and to love others - she finds great joy in investing in her family, her community and her work.  She believes that one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself and others is to be fully present.  Not always an easy task - but an obtainable one.  Faith is excited to share her knowledge, experience and training in the field of Christian Mindfulness with all of her One Heart Sisters.  Being mindful encourages us to give our full attention to the moment we are in.   That is where we want to find ourselves as often as we can.   We know that being still and before God in our daily lives brings peace to our mind, heart and spirit.  When we are experiencing peace in our mind, heart and spirit we are centered, vibrant, efficient and useful vessels for God!  Together we will move through a deeper understanding of what mindfulness is, what God's Word says about it, - Matthew 6:34, Psalm 46:10, Exodus 14:14 and additional passages,  why it is a vital component of daily life and how to practice and incorporate mindfulness in our lives.
