WHO AM I is a conference for teen girls and their moms. Be one who
Do the teens in your life struggle with these issues? YOU BETTER BELIEVE IT! YES n e e t r o f ce n e r e f n co a o h s i w I e n M o WHO A heir moms. Be e h t f o s t ie l d e n h a t s t l s r in gi a e h g t a l l s a d t n ta ha s w y e l e s d l o o b et d i s n i k e e P . .. . d t l r u o b wo a ll a s i t n e excitem Dear Leaders & Parents, The world is feeding our girls lies minute by minute, day by day. Our Christian teen girls are being devoured by issues such as body image, eating disorders, self mutilation, boy craziness and more. The result heartache and pain. As mothers, we tend to carry the heartache and pain we experienced into our parenting and hesitate to acknowledge its effect. I remember all to well what happens when you believe the lies from the world. I was left with the same heartache and pain that I see girls facing today. God is full of grace and mercy and I am so thankful that he healed me from the inside out and I can now reach out to girls during the hardest years of their life, including my own daughters. The greatest protection against the lies of the world is confidence in Christ. The next most influential person in their life is their momma! At the beginning of my journey to full-time ministry, God called me to write this book. It became very evident to me as I worked with teens in their struggles of daily life, girls need truth. This conference is an extension of the truths found in a life-changing book. Created to encourage, educate and equip girls, the Who Am I conference leads them to an absolute understanding of who they are in the eyes of an Almighty God. The transformation begins from the inside out and secures their confidence in a lasting place—CHRIST. IN CHRIST, Hannah Arrowood Founder, Present Age Ministries, Inc, Be one of the ones boldly standing against the lies of the world. Conference 411 WHAT? WHO AM I, is a brand new conference for tween/teen girls designed to explore the realities of who they are in Christ. This conference is filled with games, deep Bible teaching and touches of craziness. Conference sessions will include, Dare 2 Be Rare Fashion Show, Reality Check as we focus on today’s culture and more. Hannah Arrowood will teach insights based on her Teen Devotion book Who Am I? Practical Truths in a Deceiving World. This is guaranteed to transform from the inside out. WHY? The barrage of messages about thinness, dieting and beauty tells "ordinary" girls that they are always in need of adjustment—and that the female body is an object to be perfected. When you partner body images with other culture influences, such as entertainment, issues of purity and more, it is no wonder that 83% of teens say that moral truth depends on the situation. It has become crystal clear that even Christian teens are struggling with what is right and wrong. Black and white things have become very grey. It is our desire to paint a new picture based on Biblical truths and ignite a wave of confidence in our girls. Your students can be confident in who God has made them to be. Your students can face the struggles of acceptance, peer pressure, purity and more. Let us come beside you to help!

About the sessions Our children are bombarded by worldly views everywhere they turn. When my daughter hears truths from Hannah, it holds in her thoughts. *Mother of Teen Can You Guess? This game show is designed to inform and educate the effects that worldly influences have on teens. In a high energy and exciting way, we focus on the realities of the world we live in today. Everything from music, TV, friends, and social media influence our lives—do you recognize it? Reality Check Let's face it, growing up in today's culture is nothing like it was twenty to thirty years ago. Being a teen today is difficult - but being unaware of the dangers they face is deadly! As we tackle the issues of entertainment, trends, social media, and more - you will walk away encouraged and equipped to effectively handle life in a way that would honor God. I AM BEAUTIFUL& Fashion Show What is our definition of beauty? Who created this definition? This is the beginning of our journey to the world of Beauty and Fashion. As we address the lies of the enemy and how they affect our perception, we will be forced to look at the topics of eating disorders, self-harm, and modesty. How can we renew our mind and restore our perception as God would desire? We will find the answer to all these questions and more. PLUS we end with a Fashion Show that is sure to energize everyone. Taking what we learn to the catwalk—we will redefine showcase what being unique is all about. 5 About the sessions C U L8 E R cont... Pornography, Purity, Pressure! The top two struggles indentified in scripture are pride and sexual immorality. If Solomon; biblically notes as the wisest man in scripture recognized the need to guard our hearts from sexual immorality, why don’t we talk about it more? In this session, Hannah will address the pressures that exist and the battles that rage within each of us. Becoming transparent as she exposes her own personal struggles and heartache, Hannah will connect the dots as we redefine our worth. The asking price—no one can afford. I AM WORTH IT We are all destined to play a role in the production of life. We must not wait for others to take the lead. God has called you to do great things. The first step in understanding your role, is to understand who the director is. Do you know Jesus? Do you know why God sent his only son? In this session, we will let the power of the Gospel speak to hearts as Hannah takes us through the Word. Once we have a foundation of understanding, then and only then can we accept God has designed each of us with a unique purpose and plan. I AM DESTINED Discussion Dare 2 be Real as we sit face to face and discuss the pressures of life. With questions provided to spark conversation, as well as time to talk freely, this Groups intimate session allows for vulnerabilities and fears to be met with strength and truth! Separating girls by their age allows for a more candid look at what their realities are and an opportunity to lead, guide and direct their path. A LOL s e m i t Good maz ing 5 What others are saying... She is able to connect with many different people...I count myself lucky to know Hannah, a woman of great faith. She has left such an extraordinary impact in my life and walk with Christ. Erica Adcox., Teen Hannah possesses a unique burden to reach teen girls with the message of God's love and their true identity and worth in Christ. Hannah's beauty (both inside and out), vivacious personality, and contagious enthusiasm make her a natural magnet to young ladies and gives her the ability to effectively reach them. Through Hannah's servant heart, leadership skills, and tireless efforts, God has poured out His blessings on this much needed ministry. Connie Davis, Women's Ministry Director, Pitts Baptist Church If you are looking for a speaker to influence the next generation you should run, not walk, to the nearest phone. Hannah is one of the most entertaining, influential and convicting speakers for young women today. Hannah will reach your teens like no other speaker I know. Teen girls will leave your conference forever changed, convicted and convinced to stand firm in their faith because THEY want to, not because YOU want them to. Shari Braendel, Founder of Fashion Meets Faith, Author Good Girls Don’t Have to Dress Bad I just wanted to take a moment to thank you again! I had wondered how anyone might be able to speak to a group with such a range of ages and keep it meaningful to all of us., but you certainly met the challenge. We enjoyed your enthusiasm and your love for the Lord just shone so brightly in your life. I certainly felt the tug of the Holy Spirit in my own life because each one of us allows things into our life to drag us further and further away from where we need to be in our spiritual lives. Thanks so much and we are looking forward to having you come again. I have taken the liberty of passing your name along to other people in our area. May God continue to bless the work that you are doing. Becky Davis, Woman’s Ministry Director, New Horizons Baptist 4 What Now? COST RUUP 4IT $1,200 plus travel expenses and two night’s hotel.
