MY SPEAKING
You will laugh, cry, and learn to apply God’s Word to your everyday circumstances.
I’m a Bible teacher who loves to study and talk about Jesus. When speaking, I use scriptures, stories, and sometimes songs to lead people to encounter God so they can experience the fullness of His abiding presence.
While I much prefer teaching people in person, I’ve learned to speak every bit as passionately to a camera when necessary. Click over to my Speaking Topics page to see samples of live events and studio recordings.

Shawna spoke at our annual Community-Wide Women’s Conference and the line I consistently heard from our women was, “Best conference ever.” Shawna is professional, prepared, and delightful.

She is a delightful presence with a depth of talent in many areas… Her messages are practical and you leave ready for a closer walk with God.

Robin Brown
Hebron Baptist Church, Dacula, GA
I knew you were going to be good for us; I just wasn’t prepared for how good. Your voice, your stories, and your scripture knowledge all wrapped together make an impressive package that God is truly using to reach the hearts of women.

This is the 12th year of the Christmas Outreach and everyone said, hands down, this was the best one ever! The women want Shawna back—they love her, her message, her song!
