Title:
"Co-Authoring Your Future with God."
Talk :
Our current life experience, whether we realize it or not, is the fruit of the story we are telling ourselves. All day long we think, feel and react in response to the narrative we have created about ourselves, our life and our future, as a result of our life experiences. If we want to live out the beautiful plans God has for our lives, we must receive the truth of who we are, our deepest identity in Christ, through new encounters with the perfect love of God that can heal even the deepest wounds and help us write a redeemed story that fulfills God’s original plan and purpose for our lives.
Speaker Bio:
Karen Cruess is a licensed counselor with a passion for helping individuals experience the fullness of God’s plan for their lives. Karen has been married to her husband Scott for 17 years and is the mother to 7 beautiful children. She received her Master’s in counseling from Franciscan University of Steubenville and has been practicing counseling for 20 years, working with people from all backgrounds and walks of life. She is also the host of the Heal, Equip, & Release Podcast where she passionately shares inspiration and practical tips to help women experience healing and restoration, enabling them to fulfill the mission God has placed on their lives. Karen developed her course, Rewriting Your Story with God, in response to the growing need for healing resources in our world today. She firmly believes that as people seek healing through intimacy with God and faith-filled community, the natural consequence is deeper joy, peace, and the fruit of transformation.
