The Renewed in Spirit and Empowered Symposium, R.I.S.E., returns in 2026 with a powerful and timely theme: Rooted in Truth, Rising in Authority.
This year’s symposium is designed for women of faith, leaders, creatives, and vision carriers who are no longer searching for their voice, but are ready to stand firmly in it. R.I.S.E. 2026 is not about becoming someone new, it is about embodying what has already been formed.
Through faith centered teaching, holistic well-being conversations, leadership insight, and spirit led dialogue, participants will be invited to deepen their grounding in truth while stepping confidently into their God given authority.
This experience centers spiritual maturity, clarity, and alignment. Authority here is not forceful or performative, it is rooted, discerned, and stewarded with grace.
At R.I.S.E. 2026, you will be invited to:
• Strengthen your spiritual foundation
• Align faith, leadership, and lived experience
• Release striving and lead from conviction
• Rise with clarity, wisdom, and peace
R.I.S.E. is a sacred space for renewal that leads to embodiment, and empowerment that leads to responsibility.
We are seeking speakers who can thoughtfully engage the intersection of faith, leadership, wellness, purpose, and spiritual maturity. This includes pastors, theologians, counselors, coaches, entrepreneurs, creatives, and leaders whose work reflects depth, clarity, and alignment.
Ideal speakers will:
• Speak from lived experience and spiritual grounding
• Offer substance, not spectacle
• Align with faith based values and holistic leadership
• Understand authority as stewardship, not status
