Hi Everyone. I’m Anna, and I’m excited to be a new Co-Director for The Well Conference. I pray that my conference contributions result in rewarding and fulfilling experiences for attendees and sponsors alike. I’m an award-winning, best-selling author, workshop facilitator, certified speaker, podcaster, and prayer warrior. I love to connect with others through stories from the Bible and everyday life. I aim to convincingly stir my audiences’ spiritual appetites, so they look to the Word with fresh eyes and a renewed desire to discover God’s plan for their lives.
My biblical fiction series, The Lambswool Chronicles, transports readers into the world of ancient Israel where David, the apple of God’s eye, seeks to fulfill his purpose as king. In my books, Legacy and Lunacy, trouble and hardship abound amidst love, forgiveness, and hope for a better tomorrow. Look for the publication of book three next year, hopefully in time for the 2025 conference!
I love hosting writing retreats and speaking at women’s conferences and church gatherings. My speaking topics include:
- Warrior Women: Winning the Spiritual Battle of Your Life
- Get Out of Your Own Way: Overcoming Fear
- Too Late for Dress Rehearsals: Living Life Intentionally
- Your Story: Finding Joy in Sharing It for God’s Glory
I’m also very involved in the Word Weavers critique group, where I formerly served as President of the West Michigan chapter. This year I was blessed to be a 2024 Member of the Year Nominee for this international organization. I’m excited for you to watch the replay of the October 2024 Splash of the Well, where I facilitated a lively discussion about the benefits of writing critique groups.
I can’t wait to meet you at The Well Conference in June of 2025. If you want to discuss writing, securing me as a speaker for your next event, or appearing as a guest for an episode of my God’s Power Stories podcast, you’ll want to sign up for a one-on-one meeting with me there. I hope to see YOU at The Well!
