Special Guests:  Lisa Harper & Kim Hill

General Sessions will include the teaching of best-selling author and speaker, Lisa Harper.  Not only is Lisa a gifted communicator, but she is also a challenging and inspiring Bible teacher.  Come listen as she teaches from her latest book, A Perfect Mess.  Throughout the conference she will use the book of Psalms to teach how our loving Father adores and transforms imperfect people like us.

For six years Lisa was the Director of Focus on the Family's national women's ministry where she created the popular Renewing the Heart Conferences.  She is now a speaker for the Women of Faith stadium events and travels around the country teaching God's Word.  Her books include:

A Perfect Mess, Relentless Love, What Every Girl Wants, and Holding Out for a Hero

Singer, songwriter, and worship leader, Kim Hill, will lead worship during the general sessions and perform a concert on Friday Night.  Kim is a three-time Dove award winner and Grammy nominee.  In 1997, Focus on the Family asked Kim to lead worship at their Renewing the Heart National Women's Conference.  Not only did this give Kim the opportunity to lead over 200,000 women in worship, it also ignited her own heart of worship.  

Kim continues to be a favorite for organizations such as the MOPS National Conference, Moody Bible Institute, Billy Graham's Training Center at The Cove as well as for noted speakers and authors Max Lucado and Angela Thomas.

In addition to the general sessions, the Refresh Conference will also include workshops taught by well-loved Bible teachers from the Central Coast.  Here's the line-up:
