ROOTED IN THE WORD
Women’s Conference
Encouraging Women To Dig Deeper Into Their Faith
About the Conference
September 26th & 27th
Integrity Church, Yaphank, NY
The Word of God is described as light to our path. Just as light is needed to safely navigate a path in the dark, God’s Word is needed to illuminate the path we are called to walk in this world. We are called to walk in Him and be rooted and built up in Christ. Living in a fallen world, our enemy is at work trying to destroy God’s created order by attacking our beliefs, our families and the validity of God’s truth contained in the Bible. We are called to stand firm, take up the armor of God and fight. The only way to effectively do this, is by being intentional and prioritizing our walk with the Lord, combating the lies of the enemy with God’s truth. This conference will help women live their lives rooted in Christ. It will also equip women to influence a rising generation. Because the only way to truly live, is to be “ROOTED IN THE WORD”.

Our Speakers
Keri Early • Keynote Speaker
I’m looking forward to being with you for the Rooted in the Word Women’s Conference. I’m a learner at heart and enjoy connecting with others over coffee, walking and puzzles. When I have time alone, I like to read, listen to podcasts and make plans for just about anything… trips, meetings, curriculum, etc.
I'm part of the leadership team and teach two courses for Prepared, the Evangelical Free Church of America’s equipping program for women in ministry leadership. In addition, I serve online as an adjunct professor at Moody Bible Institute. At my home church, I enjoy investing in women and volunteering with student ministries.
I live in Clive, Iowa, and attend Valley Evangelical Free Church. I’m married to Brandon, and together we have three boys—ages 20, 18, and 13.
