I got the recommendation for Angela Johnson to speak to our MOPS group off this page and I'm SO glad that I did. She shared her presentation - My Battle Plan - which is about moms not having to be reactionary, but instead being intentional! She was real with our group and shared some personal things happening in her life...she could have easily cancelled on us at the last minute, but she didn't! I'm so grateful that despite challenges in her life, God used her to speak into our moms' lives. Highly recommend. Authentic, Funny, and Encouraging! - RACHEL WOLOHAN

Angela has been given a gift of reaching moms with the words that the Lord has placed on her heart. If you are in need of a speaker either in person or through zoom you won't be disappointed! She has spoken twice to our group this year and each time our mamas are so blessed! - MOLLY SMITH

If anyone is looking for a virtual speaker for your group I would highly recommend Angela Johnson. She can also be found on the MOPS [Mother's of Preschoolers] speaker network and was a coordinator for her local MOPS & MOPSnext ministry for many years. This morning she shared with us her presentation called “My Battle Plan” which is all about being intentional with our thoughts, our actions and our faith. She offered very practical applications for our season of motherhood, encouraged self-reflection and taught us ways to incorporate & study scripture. This was such an encouraging morning and our cups have been filled with hope, faith and direction for this season. Highly recommend! Thank you so much Angela! - ANNELIESE EDDY

We had an incredible meeting on Zoom this week featuring speaker and MOPS leader, Angela Petrosino Johnson. We loved her authenticity, fun personality and really great presentation on "Identity in Mothering". We highly recommend her as a speaker for your group. You can find her at Warrior Raiser as well! Thanks again Angela! We were just so blessed by her! - LAUREN HERMANN

We had such a great meeting last night with Angela Johnson (MOPs network speaker!) who zoomed in from Ohio and joined our in person meeting here in Tacoma! She gave a great scripture-infused talk about raising worry-free kids. We all needed to hear that one! I would highly recommend her! We loved her handouts and discussion questions too ! - MONICAL SANDSTROM

I'd had enough. I’d had enough of the bickering and tension. My husband and I were at odds again. I wanted to leave. However, history taught me not to leave abruptly. The last time I'd left upset, I went to sit in[...]
