womens conference 2025
Do you long for more in your walk with Christ? What does it look like to hunger and thirst for God? Is the desire of your heart to know him intimately and follow him faithfully? Because God delights in making himself known to his children, our pursuit of a growing relationship draws us more deeply into his presence and equips us to love him with all our heart, soul, and mind and to love others.

Join us in March as we delve into:
• Loving God—which grows out of knowing him as he has revealed himself
• Loving His Word—which grows out of plumbing its depths and excavating its truths
• Loving His People—which grows out of reflecting the love of Christ to those around us

With 3 teaching sessions from Immanuel’s own Wendy Blackwell, Marty Crabtree, and Laura Corombos, worship with Jessa Anderson, breakout sessions including topics like visual journaling, church history, scripture memory, and more, this weekend will be a great one of encouragement, teaching, and fellowship.

Meet Our Worship Leaders

Jessa and Jordan Anderson (of Jordan and Jessa) - After more than a decade of solo albums and EPs, touring the country, and leading worship together in the local church, Jordan and Jessa Anderson have come together to create their latest album, Hymns.

After meeting and marrying young, the couple pursued their shared love of music and songwriting, releasing their first solo projects in 2008. Their experience over the years of leading others in song and performing their original music, combined with their time in ministry to the local church, has given them a unique love for church music and encouraging others in the gospel through song.

Their desire is that their gospel-centered music will provide deep encouragement to the church body in our daily pursuit of Christ. Between tours, you can find Jordan and Jessa at home in Nashville, Tenn. with their children: Lorelei, Jagger, Sylvie, and Haddie.

We are thrilled to welcome Jessa and Jordan to lead us in worship and share some of the duo’s original songs. To learn more about Jessa and Jordan and to hear some of their music, visit https://www.jordanandjessa.com/home.
