Our Declare community wants to know God and make Him known.

We make Him known in a variety of ways.

Through how we live our lives. Through typing out a message. Or through the spoken word.

What if you feel called to do the latter. . .to speak?

What steps should you take to pursue that calling?

Well, you’re in luck because the fabulous Chrystal Evans Hurst is sharing some tips and encouragement on how to begin speaking publicly.

You also get a couple bonus pep talks. One about trusting God to bring the right opportunities. And another about living out your story instead of coveting someone else’s end product.

Chrystal is a wise woman with loads of experience and insight. Couldn’t be more excited to have her keynoting this year.

(And she also hosts her own podcast. . .make sure you check it out here).

What we chat about:

• What Chrystal may be scheduling at the Cooper Clinic after the conference
• How God gave Chrystal the push into speaking and writing
• Chrystal’s advice for those who want to start speaking publicly
• The benefits of living out your own story instead of pursuing someone else’s
• Being content with our voice and our current opportunities, not letting other’s product distract us from our process.
• How God brings opportunities, we don’t need to orchestrate them
• Is the She Speaks Conference for you
• How to bloom & grow where you are
