KBC’s latest blog designed to encourage women in ministry

Louisville—Working to better equip women for ministry, the Kentucky Baptist Convention launched its latest blog, “Cross-Eyed Living,” an online resource for women’s ministry.

The blog can be accessed at www.CrossEyedLiving.com and is authored by a team of three women. Shelly Johns, KBC women’s and senior adult ministry associate, is the lead contributor to the blog. Donna Coffey and Aundie Starks also offer their views on the site.

Johns said the blog is designed to be “a place where writers share experiences common to women at different seasons of life.”

“As we are honest about our struggles and provide resources for Christ-centered success, I hope the blog will encourage leaders to keep their focus on Jesus in every area and role of their lives,” she noted.

In her role at the KBC, Johns organizes training events for women and senior adults. She also helps churches implement women’s ministries, working closely with Kentucky Woman’s Missionary Union and other Christian women in the state.

Coffey is a graduate of the Women’s Ministry Institute at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville. Starks holds a Bachelor of Ministry degree in biblical counseling.

According to Johns, a variety of issues that affect women will be discussed on the blog, including “whole-hearted devotion to Christ, singleness, Christian leadership, relationships in general, health and beauty issues, the different roles women play, and other topics as God directs.”

Johns said she hopes to “expand with guest writers periodically who will help keep the blog fresh and current to our readers.”

Cross-Eyed Living is one of 11 KBC blog resources available to Kentucky Baptists at www.KyBaptist.org/Blogs.

Readers of all KBC blogs may choose to receive e-mail updates when new posts are added.
