Marriage Monday: A Woman Inspired

If you are looking for a little extra umph - a little extra inspiration for your marriage, I have just the conference for you! There's no traveling required, makeup and fixed hair is optional, no childcare is needed and it's financially possible! Let me introduce you to "A Woman Inspired".

A Woman Inspired is committed to bringing you a variety of online conference experiences throughout the year. Each conference is unique, educational, and of course, inspiring!

A Woman Inspired has invited ME to speak at their "One" Marriage Online Conference May 10-12. Once again, I am humbled! And praying God gives me something of substance to inspire women!

Here's a little about the conference:

And the Lord God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. (Gen 2:18)

Many little girls dream about their Prince Charming sweeping them off their feet one day. And some girls don’t even think about marriage until Mr. Right literally walks across their path. After the ring, the dress, the vows, and the honeymoon, REAL marriage begins. Life as ONE. ONE can look very different from one family to the next.

What do you see when you look at YOUR marriage?

Are you in the honeymoon stage, celebrating your golden wedding anniversary, or do you fall somewhere in the middle? Did you marry your high school sweetheart, have a long stint at singlehood first, or have a blended family? Are you passionate and purposeful in your marriage?

Whether you are struggling as ONE or just want to keep your foundation strong, the “one” Marriage online conference has a line-up of speakers that are all experts in their own right. They have experiences and God centered, biblical messages to deliver to you so that you can have the marriage you have always hoped for. Join us for the “one” Marriage online conference and get the hope, healing, and Biblical motivation you desire to move forward and have the marriage God desires for you!

Prince Charming doesn’t exist. Real men have rough edges– and so do we! These edges can be fit together as ONE. Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be ONE flesh. (Gen 2:24)

To see the speaker list and topics click here!

I am excited to share that I have 5 tickets to giveaway to this conference!!! So if this conference looks like something that would interest you, please comment below and I will be choosing a winner on Saturday, April 10th!

Walk with the King!

sheri Bowers said...: Hi, I am also a new reader of yours. I would love to win a ticket!! I am in a blended family and there have been times where it would have been so easy to throw in the towel but the Lord has covered me in so many ways. He has givin me a husband that refuses to let go of what we have. It was me who wanted to leave. Over the past two weeks the Lord has truely changed my heart and has given me a second wind to use his blue print (His Word) for me and not to worry about what my husband is doing. The Lord will take care of my husband. Now every morning I am in searching on the web for good biblical marriage words of widsom ( I found you). Please keep doing what you are doing. It ministers to so many in need of good Godly wisdom.; April 5, 2010 at 8:31 AM

christycole80 said...: I have just recently found your blog and love reading it...my marriage is a blended family w/alot of its problems that I am not sure how to work out and nothing seems to work. I would love to go to a marriage conference and have mentioned it to my husband. I would like for him to read devotions w/me and do lots of things like this if given the chance and opportunity I am sure he would. Thnx again and love reading your blogs that so inspire and help others. God Bless.; April 5, 2010 at 8:45 AM
Erich and Jacquie said...: Outside of my relationship with Christ, my marriage matters most to me. I love being married and never want that to change. No matter, it is still the most difficult thing as it reflects our relationship with Jesus. Where else do you get more practice of dying to self and serving others than with your husband? (That's a good thing!) :); April 5, 2010 at 9:19 AM

Brittany said...: Hi Courtney, I am a 19 year old woman who is passionately seeking to love her husband ALL the days of her life. I think that this conference would be an excellent way to do just that. Even if I don't win a ticket, I would love to know more information about how I can get one. Although there is no manual on marriage why wait until marriage to read about it or learn about it? ;)
Congratulations on getting this opportunity. :)
With God's Love,

I know this isn't related to your post, and I'm sorry to change the subject, but I wanted you to know that your book review on One Million Arrows caused me (and my hubby) to do something good for my kiddos.

I thought you (and your followers) might like to know what good fruit you're producing. :)

The post is called "A Noteworthy Idea" on my Sugar Tails blog if you'd like to see it. Thanks!

Michelle' said...: Thank you for the opportunity to win a ticket. I stumbled over your site through money saving mom. I never really sign up for these giveaways and for some reason I saw the word 'marriage' and 'conference' stick out and because of my story, I clicked on it. You see, my husband left me and our 5 children last May without any warning. To bring you quickly up-to-date, I have been praying (along with my church) for some sort of miracle because I fully believe in the power of prayer and how God can do anything. I am also trying desperately to see what it is that I need and should be doing that is God's will. He is starting to come around and he tells me he is miserable without us - unfortunately he has yet to come home. We are going on our 16th year of marriage and I will continue to pray and seek God's will and anything else that might move our marriage in the right direction. If I don't win the ticket, I guess what I hope more than anything is that should anyone read this, to please pray for Joe and Michelle and their 5 children. Thank you - sisters in Christ, Michelle; April 5, 2010 at 9:33 PM
Tara said...: I would love to win tickets to this conference. With limited income, I can't attend the 'outside the home' conferences, but this is a topic I would really love to delve into deeper.; April 5, 2010 at 9:55 PM
Kristen said...: You know the virtual side to this creates great interest in me! But I if I win, I want my ticket to go to Michelle. The Michelle married to Joe with 5 kids two posts before mine. Am I allowed to do that? :) I will pray for you, Michelle.
Kristen; April 5, 2010 at 10:19 PM
Courtney (Women Living Well) said...: Awwwww Kristen - that's so nice!!! That's my sis with a big heart!!! Great idea - and I'm crossing my fingers you win!!! It's up to random.org!

Michelle - lifting you up in prayer tonight!
Much Love,
Courtney; April 5, 2010 at 10:26 PM
Anonymous said...: I would love to win and if I do I will mail my ticket to Michelle. I know Michelle who is married to Joe. I have been talking to her since August of 2009, and if I win, I would mail my ticket to her. I have been praying for her since August.

Rachel said...: I would LOVE this opportunity! My husband and I have been married for about a year and a half, and have been blessed with a really smooth transition to marriage. In the upcoming months we are experiencing a pretty significant life change as my husband has just been offered a new job which will require a lot of travel. As we look ahead I find myself thrilled for him, excited, but also nervous as our marriage is undoubtedly going to face trials. This conference could come at a great time in our marriage.; April 5, 2010 at 11:52 PM

Claire Voisine- backdrop blog said...: Hi Courtney,
I just discovered your blog a few weeks ago, and what an amazing ministry you have! I am so excited to check your blog every day, and have been enjoying catching up on past posts. I have been married almost 2 years now, and am not a mommy yet, but am eager to soak in Biblical wisdom of being a woman of the Lord. I have already gained much inspiration from your faithfulness in letting the Lord speak through you, and have applied new principles to my own marriage. I am also enjoying reading about your mommy adventures, and preparing my heart for that journey one day as well.

I would love to be able to attend this marriage conference!

willswife said...: Hi Courtney!
My husband put your blog on my google home page! He is the one that found you for me. Hee hee... He knew that your blog would be something I'd be into. We have been married for 5 1/2 years and he knows me well. I have enjoyed your blog very much. We laugh because one of the first things he showed me was your video on "making love to your man anytime he wants"! ha! It was very inspiring.
I do love your passion for biblical womanhood and teaching other women. I do share that passion as there is such a need.
Whether you pick me for a ticket or not, just know that with the most sincerity, you have a fan in Wyoming!

amanda said...: Hello Courtney. I came across your website when i was googling the duggar family values. the Lord put in on my heart to visit your blog and I've been a daily reader ever since. I came to the Lors when I watched my mother-in-law face cancer with the pure strength of the Lord. She passed quickly but her light shined in a way I could not ignore. 3 years later I struggle to lead a godly life as a wife and mother but have found such inspiration in your blog. I knew godly women in my age group were out there, I finally found you! I would love to learn more about how to be an honoring and submitting wife and would love the opportunity to attend this conference. thanks, God Bless!; April 6, 2010 at 11:25 PM
