We believe God created us for relationship—with Him and with one another. We were never meant to follow Jesus alone. Some of the most meaningful moments in our faith happen when we have women around us who encourage us, challenge us, pray for us, and walk alongside us.
That’s why we’re so excited about this year’s Unshaken Conference focus: discipleship.
But when we say discipleship, we’re not talking about having all the answers, knowing the Bible inside and out, or being the woman who has everything figured out. It’s not about becoming an expert before you can invest in someone else. It’s about learning to follow Jesus, being changed by Him, and helping one another take the next step along the way.
We may be in different seasons of life, with different stories and experiences, but none of us has arrived. We’re all asking the same question: What is my next step with Jesus?
Maybe your next step is getting to know Jesus for the first time. Maybe it’s learning to trust Him in a new way, allowing Him to change you, or discovering what it means to live not just for yourself, but on mission with Him. Maybe it’s investing in someone else and helping her take her next step, too.
Wherever you are in your faith journey, there’s a next step for you. And that’s what we hope Unshaken will help you discover.
We’re excited to hear from God through our speakers, Ruby Kedney and Rene Clark, and through the conversations throughout the weekend. We’re praying for women who are ready to know Jesus more deeply, experience His transforming work in their lives, and discover what it means to join Him in His mission.
And we’re praying for genuine community—because we believe following Jesus is something we do together.
Sometimes that looks like sitting across the table from another woman and asking, “How are you really doing?” Sometimes it means praying together, sharing what God is teaching you, or simply making room for someone who needs to know she belongs.
That’s the kind of community we’re praying for at Unshaken: not a room full of women who have it all figured out, but women willing to say, “I want to know Jesus. I want to follow Jesus. I want to be changed by Jesus. And I want my life to be part of the mission of Jesus.”
So wherever you’re coming from, there’s a place for you here.
Whether you’ve been following Jesus for decades, you’re just beginning to explore who He is, or you’re somewhere in between—come. Come with your sister, daughter, friend, coworker, or neighbor. Come expecting God to meet you where you are and show you where He wants to take you next.
Because our prayer is that when you leave Unshaken, you won’t just leave encouraged. You’ll leave with a next step.
- A next step toward Jesus.
- A next step toward becoming more like Jesus.
- A next step toward living on mission with Jesus.
- And maybe even a next step toward another woman who needs someone to walk alongside her, too.
We’re praying that Unshaken 2026 is more than a weekend. We’re praying it’s a catalyst for women who want to know and follow Jesus, be changed by Jesus, and commit to the mission of Jesus—and for a community of women who are willing to walk that journey together.
We can’t wait to see what God does. And we can’t wait to see you at Unshaken.
With love,
