Women's Groups
Sheila's largest ministry is to church women's groups, where she speaks at outreaches, fundraisers, women's events, and full-blown retreats. Her talks tend to run 45 minutes, and can include a salvation message or a question and answer session at the organizer's request. Both single talks and conference packages are listed below.For a unique way to bring Sheila to your group, don't forget to check out her Retreat to Go package!
Single Talks:
Do You Believe God Loves You?
We grow up singing "Jesus loves me", but do we really feel it? Learn how to move this truth from your head to your heart.
- Don't Worry, Be Happy?
We all yearn for happiness, and get married, have children, choose a career, and join a church all because we think these choices will make us happy. But what if they don't? And what if happiness isn't the point of life at all? Find out how our search for happiness often leaves us unhappy, and how God has something even richer for us, that will leave us contented and at peace.
Finding God's Best--and Leaving the Merely Good in the Dust!
Are you running around all day, looking after everybody else, but in the process making yourself exhausted? Are you always busy, but feel like you never get anywhere? It's probably because you do too many good things, and so have no time for the best! This highly practical and motivating talk will help women separate the good things they do from God's best--and learn how to focus on God's priorities even in the everyday tasks we do.
Blooming in the Desert:
We would all love it if life was smooth sailing. But it isn't. And when things go wrong, how do we keep going? Instead of blaming God, let's learn to let Him carry us and even let Him breathe into us so we can bloom. Available in either a single talk format or a full retreat.
Honey, I Don't Have a Headache Tonight:
It's 10 p.m. You want to start snoring. He wants to start snuggling. How do you break this impasse? A rip-roaring fun talk full of giggles and lots of great insight into this intimate area of our lives. Let's get over our barriers to a great sex life, and learn how to let it be all that God intended it to be!
- To Love, Honor and Vacuum
Do you feel harried? Taken for granted? Like you're running all the time but not getting anywhere? Learn how to make your home and your relationships reflect God's priorities, and bring peace back to your home once again. A fun and humorous talk with a heavy emphasis on the practical!
Conference Packages:
Most of Sheila's talks can be combined into conferences. Her most popular is Finding God's Best, but she will be happy to customize the talks based on your group's chosen theme.One of her newer conferences is:
Extreme Makeover, Heart EditionDo you feel like you're in a rut? Do you long for something new and exciting? Well, there's nothing better than handing yourself over to the Master Potter Himself to do a wonder on your insides. Let's deal with the big things that hold us back: fear, pride, and bitterness, and learn how we can blossom again! This is a two-part talk over one day, and includes my testimony of recovering from the death of my son. It also has a large dose of humour in it about what often stops us women from moving forward.Extreme Makeover: Heart Edition is also available as a Retreat to Go! If Sheila can't make it to your retreat, or if your budget can't really afford a speaker, that doesn't mean you have to miss out on great teaching! Retreat to Go contains everything you need for a transformational women's retreat, including two talks on DVD, all the planning materials you need, ice breakers, drama, and more!
