October Guest Speakers - Rebecca Abbott and Penny Mulvey on the power of women’s stories

We have all experienced the power of a good story. Whether fictional stories in novels, TV shows and movies, or true stories in biographies or the news, a good story has the power to not just entertain and inform us, but to shape us, to move us emotionally, and to empower us to think and live differently. As Christians, we are people of story - it's how God communicates with us, through telling us his story through his word.

Rebecca Abbott and Penny Mulvey have been storytellers for as long as they can remember, as professional writers and journalists and in their personal lives. At our October Greenhouse Gathering, they will be sharing with us their own stories, including the story of how and why they began their award-winning podcast, Run Like A Woman, to tell the stories of other Australian Christian Women. They'll give us some insights into how media organisations use stories and how we can read them well. And they'll help us think about how we can be using our own life stories to grow God's Kingdom, both in the media and in our relationships.

You’ll also have a chance to connect with other Christian women, enjoy some delicious food, and hear more about what The Greenhouse has to offer to women in different industries, workplaces, churches and stages of life. We’d love to have you join us!

Can’t make it in person? Join us online! We’d love you to share in the experience.
