this is rise in strength

Rise in Strength is community of women who are leaders across cultures and nations. With this global perspective we want to celebrate the gifting, vital contribution, and leadership of Christian women around the world.  We call the Church to endorse and encourage women and girls to rise up in strength so that all men and women, boys and girls, flourish.

who?

Rise in Strength is a network of women who are in places of Christian influence. We want to resource, encourage, learn from, and pray with each other. We aim to see women as co-leaders with men, as advocates on issues that particularly impact women and girls, and as respected leaders in many international contexts.

They shake our certainties and give us analysis paralysis.
