We’ve been praying and preparing for The Influence Conference all year long. God has given us the vision to plan a life-giving, Gospel-centered weekend for like-minded women to connect, learn, grow, and leave refreshed with the resources, tools, and relationships they need to make much of Jesus. Some women in our community have shared their hearts about The Influence Conference through their personal blogs. Our prayer is that their own words will inspire those of you who will be joining us, as well as encourage those of you who haven’t taken that jump to buy your ticket, yet.

INFLUENCE GIVING AND SERVING

We are THRILLED to announce a new initiative within The Influence Network--our GIVING AND SERVING ARM. We want to lead this community well, equip you with the resources to make your online life mean something, and then give you ways to tangibly partner with some of the most amazing ministries and non-profits out there. We'll be launching periodic fundraising initiatives, service opportunities, and even trips. The Internet is going to be alive with HOPE because women like you come and give and serve.

INFLUENCE HOPE IN JINJA WITH SOLE HOPE

We have long planned to work with Sole Hope--but this summer, we read a post by Sole Hope founder Dru Collie called A Very Bad Horrible No Good Day. We often talk about staying tender to the needs of the downtrodden and cast away, and this was a moment where our ears were burning and our hearts were pounding. Suddenly, the problem felt personal. We couldn't un-know what we'd read. We needed to act and find a way to fund a nurse (hopefully 2!!) for Sole Hope. 

THE INFLUENCE NETWORK

The Influence Network exists to equip women with resources and community to make their online lives mean something. We have a vibrant and quickly growing year-long community gathering in forums, online classes, and specialized groups. Our annual Influence Conference is located in Indianapolis, IN.
