Church Lady―Freed to Be a Woman of God

Somewhere along the way, this woman of noble character--wholesome, God-fearing, lovable, kind, giving, and serving--lost her respect. You've seen her. You may even be her--the godly and beautiful woman who, in spite of herself, has resembled her complete opposite twin, evil and ugly, a time or two in her life. And wouldn't you know it? That was the exact moment someone snapped a picture and recorded it on the hard drive of her mind, filed it under Stereotypes, and titled it Church Lady. It's time for a do-over, a truce, a meeting of the sisters. Delete the hard drive, wipe out the negative stereotype, and shine up her tarnished reputation. Join Chandra Peele and reclaim the honor and humility that is the Church Lady.

Chandra Peele, author of Priceless and Radiant and coauthor of Great Love (for Girls) and Great Love (for Guys), is a highly recommended speaker and author. She has been endorsed by pastor and author Max Lucado; nationally known youth speaker David Nasser; Stan Lee, founder of Dare 2 Run Ministries; and many other ministers of youth who have invited Chandra to minister to their youth.Using a high-energy, zany approach, she motivates, encourages, and equips teens to live a lifestyle of holiness. As she shares the truths of God’s Word with more than 8,000 students each year, she has audiences laughing, crying, and, more importantly, growing in the love of Christ. She speaks straight from her heart, and God uses her authentic style to lead others to the feet of Jesus. Her passion for Christ is contagious! She believes that to have the best relationship with others, we simply must desire Jesus first. “Through His Word, prayer, and fellowship, we can each enjoy the sweetness that comes from being filled with the joy of the Lord. Then instead of chocolates or pizza, we begin to crave and want more of Jesus!”This former minister of youth is the founder of GAB (Godly and Beautiful) Ministries, Inc., a ministry with the mission of reaching teens in a real world with a real God. She is a certified abstinence trainer and has worked with such ministries as Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Youth Specialties, and WAIT Training. In addition, she frequently works with Teen Moms and pregnancy care centers across the United States, as well as other programs needing assistance with at-risk children.She writes a monthly column, “Dear Gabby,” for the Christian Beacon (San Antonio) newspaper. Although she travels extensively, she and her family call Spring, Texas, home.
