Featured Speaker Allison Allen

From her kindergarten stage debut as a bovine to performing one-woman pieces with Women of Faith, Allison Allen has always relished the power of story, the thrill of walking in the shoes of others, and watching from the wings as Jesus brings His followers more fully to life.

After graduating from Carnegie Mellon University with a degree in Acting, Allison Allen landed on Broadway in the revival of “Grease”, and stayed there for almost two years.

Following her tenure of 650 performances,  the hand-jive from Rydell High still graces her dreams.

 Currently, she has the joy of teaching at conferences around the country, and wing-womaning Lisa Harper on the popular podcast,  Back Porch Theology.

She is a nationally published author of three books and one Bible study:  Shine: Stepping Into the Role You Were Made For; Thirsty for More: Discovering the Hidden Blessings of the Desert Season;  Seen, Secure, Free, and Hidden: Finding Delight in Your Life with Christ. 

On a personal note, Allison is married to a good and handsome man with whom she can wear heels. This is no small feat, as Allison resides at 5’12”.  Jonathan is a worship pastor, and together they have two delightful sons: Levi and Luke. 

Jordan Anglin

Jordan Anglin is a wife, mom, lover of Jesus, speaker, and worship leader. She has served in multiple areas of ministry over the past 13 years including youth ministry + worship. She has been happily married for over 11 years to Tyler Anglin. They have 3 beautiful children: Elliot, Georgia, and Eisley. They currently have a ministry called Come Alive. Their heart is to see people saved, healed, free, and living the fullness of who God created them to be! Tyler + Jordan are passionate about people not just having an encounter with God but equipping them to live fully devoted to God so they can go and change the world around them.

Rachel Edwards

Rachel Edwards is a pastor’s wife who’s obsessed with Jesus, her husband, and her four kids. After 16 years in ministry, she’s learned that following Jesus isn’t about getting it perfect—it’s about learning to walk closely with Him.

This April, she’s launching Becoming You Bravely—a podcast and companion Substack inviting people into honest conversations about intimacy with God and becoming who He created them to be.

When she’s not speaking or writing, you can find her sitting—usually with a husband-made latte, her family, or a good book. She’s also embracing her aspiring minimalist life while somehow still rotating through new hobbies.

Raised near Seattle, she’ll take a rainy day over sunshine any time.
