Her numerous books, including the award-winning Soul Care series and Unruffled, Thriving in Chaos.. reflect her passion to help others develop the strength of their God-given gifts and apply them to their lives.

Afton Rorvik savors words, flavored coffee, time outside, and living connected. She happily embraces her introversion as a gift and celebrates her courage-giving faith in God. She writes about the intersection of faith and friendship and introversion, including living as a Storm Sister. She has worked in the publishing industry for decades as both an editor and a writer and now writes with other women of faith as part of the Redbud Writers Guild. She seeks to embrace the word grateful in all seasons of life. Afton and her husband John have intentionally cultivated a friendship in their 30+ years of marriage as they raised and launched two children.

Afton Rorvik's new book , Living Connected: An Introvert’s Guide to Friendship, promotes introversion as a friendship-building gift. Introverts (and those who love them) will learn how to live connected, something that God calls all of us to do, even in this these pandemic, divisive days.

In her warm, conversational, story-loving voice, introvert Afton Rorvik looks at friendship one word at a time and describes creative and practical ways to live connected in a quiet, thoughtful way.

This one is a hot potato!

Yet, It’s our heart to have a conversation about Women in Biblical Ministry. What does God have to say about it?

In this 3-part series, I (Dawn Damon) along with my 2 Co-hosts Julie Coleman and Dena Dyer, take an in-depth look at the Word of God to see what the Bible truly teaches. We invite you, with fresh eyes… less bias and an open heart to join us.

In this 3 part series- We are going to

·     Consider Jesus and his interaction with women.

·     Look at tough questions and scriptures, Was Paul really against women?

·     How Patriarchy has influenced the church and the lens through which we view things.

·     Offer a mini-summit to go deeper.

Julie Coleman helps others to understand and know an unexpected God. A popular conference and retreat speaker, she holds an M.A. in biblical studies. Julie is the managing editor for Arise Daily, an online devotional by members of the Advanced Writers and Speakers Association. When she is not glaring at her computer, she spends time with her grandchildren, gardening, or walking her neurotic dog. More on Julie can be found at unexpectedgod.com and Facebook.

Dena Dyer loves Jesus, her family, all things literary, coffee, and British television. She’s an author of ten books and many articles, a professional speaker, and a book proposal coach who’s been married to her hubby Carey for 23 wonderful years (and a couple they don’t talk about). They have two young adult sons, Jordan and Jackson, and in 2020 the family was “rescued” by their Maltese pup, Sully. Her passion is sharing words of humor and hope with wounded and weary people, and she enjoys singing on the praise team at the church where her husband is the worship pastor. She spends too much time online or in the fast food drive-through--but she and the Lord are working on it. Connect with her: website, Instagram or Facebook.

Dawn Scott Damon is known as the BraveHearted Mentor; Coaching for women over 40. She is a speaker, podcast host, mentor, and award-winning author. Dawn is also an ordained Pastor, who has served the Church as the Sr. Pastor for the last 7 years.
