About this Event

You are invited to our brilliant, interactive Rise Women Leadership Tour
These specially tailored events have been designed to equip, resource and empower female leaders (and emerging female leaders) to develop and grow. As leaders we need to be lifelong learners and we have much to glean from one another, our sessions will inspire, provoke thought and equip you!


NATALIE RUNION, RAISED TO STAY, IS SPEAKING

We are privileged to partner with the incredible Natalie Runion. Natalie has taken the social media world by storm with her insightful, prophetic posts championing the church but calling us to authentic, godly living. She is a Pastor’s Kid turned Pastor who lives in Kentucky with her husband Tony and daughters, She has been involved in church life from birth and knows the struggles, the strains, the joys and the breakthroughs. Natalie wrote her first book, with David C. Cook, called "Raised to Stay", which took the Christian world by storm. This first book shared her story of being raised in the church and how she has learned to "stay", holding on to Jesus. Her second release "The House that Jesus Built", gives practical help to us as disciples wanting to navigate deconstruction and discouragement to build on God's Word.

Her latest release "I don't even like Women" is tackling the lies that get in the way of biblical sisterhood. A book for women who struggle with women yet who long for genuine community and connection.


HOSTED BY PASTOR JESS DISABATINO AT JOURNEY CHURCH

Jessica DiSabatino is the Lead Pastor of Journey Church in Calgary Alberta. She loves people and theology and is able to connect with her audiences through her candid humour and her understanding of what it means to be human in this chaotic and messy world.  Following the death of her younger brother, Jess and her dad founded MySafeWork, a philanthropic initiative that brings justice to workplaces in Canada and around the world.  From this work Jess received the Governor General’s award in 2017.  In tandem with her foundation work, Jess has pastored in various churches for more than twenty years.  When Jess is not hanging out with her husband and four children she is busy resurrecting her 1980s rap career.

Join Pastor Jess in Calgary at Journey Church to hear Natalie speak the lessons God has taught her and the wisdom and insight she brings to the Christian family around the globe. We invite you to join us on this leadership tour!
