Main Speaker Tracey Pike

Born & raised in Columbus, IN, Tracey is still in disbelief that one could have so much fun and call it “work”. She is invited to speak regularly at public & private schools, churches, & other community organizations across South Central Indiana where teens & adults are educated and  encouraged with truth & challenged to live a life of integrity.  Her first priority in life is to serve Jesus Christ as she constantly and relentlessly seeks His direction in her life.

Main Sessions

“Refresh” (Saturday Morning) – In the fast-paced, multi-tasking, busy lives we lead, often our sleep is restless.  This session will focus on getting the real rest we need to refresh our bodies, minds, and hearts.

“Renew” (Saturday Afternoon) – This powerful session will look at territory we’ve given away and claiming it back as we gain a renewed perspective on the power and authority we have as women of God.

“Rejoice” (Sunday Morning) – Give the little girl inside the permission to laugh out loud, love as though you’ve never been hurt, and believe in fairy tales… where YOU are the princess!  This session celebrates reclaiming the joy many have lost in our lives.
