LifeWay Women's Going Beyond with Priscilla Shirer Challenges Women to Pass up the Ordinary

A wife and mother of three young sons, Shirer understands the unique needs and daily stresses of overworked women whose lives seem to be hanging together by a thread. Her goal is to help women in all seasons of life, from all backgrounds, see how applicable the Bible is to their daily situations.

"Women who attend Going Beyond don't just hear about God's power, they experience it," said Paige Greene, LifeWay Women's events director. "Priscilla has a gift for creating a safe place for women who are dealing with hard things. She empowers them to get to the next level in their relationship with God - to push through to the miracles waiting for them on the other side."

The event will be held Fri. from 7 to 9:30 p.m., and Sat. from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. All seats are $45 general admission, which includes two days of music and worship, sessions led by Shirer, and opportunities for fellowship with others.

About Priscilla Shirer

Priscilla Shirer was a communication major in college, had plans to be a television news anchor -- but God had other ideas. While interning at a Christian radio station in Houston, she began to receive invitations to do Bible studies at small women's events in the area. At only 18 she shared the simple truths of Scripture that she was studying in her own personal time with the Lord... and she has been in full-time ministry ever since. Priscilla Shirer's ministry to women across the country and around the world is focused on the expository teaching of the Word of God. Her desire is to see women come to a full understanding of who they are in Christ by hearing the uncompromising truth of Scripture. She is author of He Speaks to Me: Preparing to Hear from God and Discerning The Voice Of God: How to Recognize When God Speaks. For more information, visit http://www.goingbeyond.com.
