00:09:15 Martha Artyomenko: How is everyone this morning? 00:09:32 Katie Meade: Pretty good! How are you? 00:09:59 Martha Artyomenko: Using the break to get in my early morning workout in. 00:10:36 Martha Artyomenko: Did you enjoy the keynote? 00:10:43 Katie Meade: There ya go! I'm getting things ready for this class! 00:11:00 Katie Meade: I sure did! So inspiring! 00:11:31 Martha Artyomenko: Jim always is encouraging. No matter how many times I listen. 00:11:45 Martha Artyomenko: Have you read any of his books? 00:12:23 Katie Meade: That's great to hear! No I haven't! This is the first I heard about him! And this is my first time at this conference 00:12:44 Martha Artyomenko: Be sure to check them out on the bookstore. 00:12:49 Martha Artyomenko: They are excellent. 00:13:02 Katie Meade: I sure! 00:15:30 Leslie: I'm glad these are recorded, as I have to leave during part of it for a 1:1 session. 00:19:42 Classroom 2: We love QUESTIONS. Really, we do. Please *DO* post QUESTIONS into the CHAT window to EVERYONE. Capitalize the word QUESTION. That will help the host not miss any questions and prioritize them for the instructor. Example: QUESTION -- Why is the sky blue? Please *DO NOT* post direct PRIVATE questions to the host. That messes up the chat screen. Enjoy the class! 00:20:06 Classroom 2: Having trouble seeing everything? In ZOOM go to the upper right corner and select VIEW then try a different setting. Maybe Side-By-Side Speaker will work better for you! 00:24:52 Pam Walker: Word Weavers is a great organization! 00:29:27 Katie Meade: I've never heard of that organization Pam! I might do some research into that organization! 00:30:18 Anne Foley Rauth: I am a writer! 00:30:29 Katie Meade: I did and it felt good! 00:30:32 Cher Stein: Sometimes it doesn't feel scary, it just feels like you are an imposter. 00:30:49 Pam Walker: Yes, we are all writers on a journey! 00:31:03 Lea Ann: first time 00:31:46 Yvonne Ortega: I am a writer. 00:32:26 Leslie: My husband is actually the one who will often tell people when they ask what I do. I tend to list my other job (editor), though I do have published works and a book. 00:33:51 Bonnie Holbrook : I feel I have imposter syndrome. 00:34:09 Pam Walker: https://amzn.to/3mRzB8E Refresh Your Prayers Refresh Your Faith Hungry for God, Starving for time Joy in the Journey 00:34:25 Pam Walker: Just sent the link to Lori's books. 00:35:39 Anne Foley Rauth: Would love to have that list of people from the Bible! 00:36:16 Leslie: Yes! I've been working a lot on replacing those lies with truths lately. 00:36:48 Nancy: I agree with Anne. I would love to have that list. 00:38:17 Elaine McAllister: This is a list I just found online:Do you feel like God couldn’t possibly use you?
