The JustONE Conference
Need encouragement … challenge … connection … and inspiration …
All while sitting comfortably on your couch with a Latte in hand?
The JustONE Conference is a free virtual conference for all Pastors’ Wives and Women in Ministry. This 4 week conference will include over 20 speakers sharing from their personal lives and leadership.
This year the conference is based on 1 Timothy 4:12b-16 (The Message) “Teach believers with your life: by word, by demeanor, by love, by faith, by integrity. Stay at your post reading Scripture, giving counsel, teaching. And that special gift of ministry you were given when the leaders of the church laid hands on you and prayed–keep that dusted off and in use. Cultivate these things. Immerse yourself in them. The people will all see you mature right before their eyes! Keep a firm grasp on both your character and your teaching. Don’t be diverted. Just keep at it. Both you and those who hear you will experience salvation.”

November 29th, 2011 at 6:53 amLoved the last JustONE conference (definitely needed it) and looking forward to this one. Such a great ministry and an ingenious concept! Props to you! Praying many more women involved with ministry will be encouraged, challenged, and hopeful that they will see the salvation of (their) God in every area of their lives.

January 4th, 2012 at 9:54 amI made a commitment to improve my spiritual health this year. My husband will be graduating from seminary in May. He is an associate pastor, and this is a second career for him. I am assuming at age 45 I’m pretty old to be a “new” pastor’s wife. Pastoral ministry has not been a part of my life for years and years like so many pastor’s wives, and I feel a little overwhelmed about my role and responsibilities. I work full-time in a secular job, and feel somewhat disconnected from our church. I’m looking forward to this “medicine” to help me on my path to improved spiritual health.

Thank you for doing this! This will be my first one and I am really excited to hear from all these incredible women!

January 6th, 2012 at 5:26 amReally excited for this and would like to encourage some of my other women friends in ministry to join with me in participating in this conference. Can you please tell me what to expect in terms of the average length of each of the 4 sessions?
Thanks!
[Reply]
January 6th, 2012 at 10:08 amEach session lasts about an hour … give or take a little.
Excited for you to connect. It is going to be a great 4 weeks!

I just got tapped to head up our first women’s conference this year. 
My corporate background includes major trade show event planning and 17 years of learning and development, so the logistics and putting together solid programs…I’m not so intimidated by. It’s my first time doing something of this nature in a ministry capacity though. (That….I’m a little intimidated by.)
We’ve had a conference for girls focused on ages 9-18 and we’re expanding the vision. (And yes. God has been leading me this direction despite all my valiant efforts to ignore it, growing up in a family full of preachers. )
Yeah.
This came along at the perfect time.
Because yeah…..
I’m gonna need some help.
Any suggestions on groups I should maybe join would be awesome too.
Thanks!!

January 7th, 2012 at 12:18 pmWhen we open Virtual Community Groups in a few weeks, you might consider getting in Debbie Hopper’s group. I know she does a big women’s conference at her church so would probably a great help. Just a thought.

Just been spreading the word amongst my fellow female colleagues.

Woo Hoo! I am excited!

January 10th, 2012 at 10:28 amDoes anyone know how long the session is each day?
[Reply]
January 10th, 2012 at 10:47 amHey Kristin.
They are around an hour each. So that same hour session will play four different times in a week and then the next week, it’ll be another session.
[Reply]
January 11th, 2012 at 5:15 amSeveral ladies from my church are planning on watching it together. However we had a question about scheduling / time. Is it Monday and Tuesday at the times listed or either or? And this is for 4 consecutive weeks?
[Reply]
January 20th, 2012 at 9:21 amEke. Lori, sorry I missed your comment earlier.
So glad you are getting together to watch. Fun!
Monday and Tuesday, morning and evening, are all the exact same session that will replay. So, you just pick the time that works best.
Then the following Monday the next session will start, and so on for the four weeks. Does that make sense
Let me know if you have any additional questions.
[Reply]
January 17th, 2012 at 9:24 amSo excited for the conference….. Cant wait
[Reply]
So cool! Saw this and already told my wife, who’s emailing all the pastor’s wives at our church. What a great resource!
[Reply]
January 20th, 2012 at 9:12 amHow long are the sessions? I am not sure how it will work. Do all 5 speakers speak at the same session?
[Reply]
January 20th, 2012 at 9:19 amHey Louisa.
Sessions are about 1 hour in length. Week 1’s 5 speakers will be shown twice a day Monday and Tuesday so that, hopefully, people can find a time that fits. The next Monday will kick off with Week 2’s five speakers and so on. Does that make sense? It is hard to explain before it starts. But just pick a time once a week for the next 4 weeks. Sit down with your computer for about an hour each week, and you’ll get to hear all 20 speakers over the month. Let me know if you have any additional questions.

I really need conference to have my strength replinished.
[Reply]
So encouraged by these lovely ladies this morning on JustONE! I took notes, and plan to review 1 speaker each day in my QT. Today the thing that stood out to me from Kaye Warren is … “You’re the message!”. In looking over the scriptures in diff translations (Thx iPhone), that line rings over and over.. I’M THE MESSAGE! What a responsibility! What a privilege. So clear, so direct, such a mandate. Others are looking to me. I must be REAL. I must be full of LOVE. I must be worthy of IMITATION. Christ in me.
Thx Lori and friend! What a blessing!

February 17th, 2012 at 3:19 pmWas just told about how great this virtual conference was and was wondering if the sessions are available to watch now that it is over? I would really like to be able to watch/listen to the conference if it is available. thanks so much!
[Reply]
Hey Emily. We will have all of the sessions archived in the next few weeks. We’ll get the word out once it is up under the media tab.

August 9th, 2012 at 9:44 pmHey Verlina
Yes! We do the JustONE Conference once a year. So, be on the look out for it again January/February 2013.
And, of course, we do a retreat once a year. It is coming up in Sept in OKC and the 2013 retreat will be in November in Nashville.
And we are kicking off new Virtual Community Groups in about a month.
Glad you found us! Let us know if we can ever be a help!

January 9th, 2013 at 9:49 amThanks for doing this-this is going to be great!
[Reply]
February 8th, 2013 at 8:42 amI have not been receiving reminder emails to log on. It just dawned on me thus morning that I have missed almost three entries thing. Are there recordings somewhere that we can listen to what we missed?
[Reply]
Glad you enjoyed JustONE last time! We hope that this will be just as encouraging!
