I love surprises!
Update below...

Do I have a surprise for those of you coming to She Speaks this year!!!

Guess who will be joining us to deliver the keynote message Saturday night??!!

Go ahead, guess...

I'll give you a couple of hints:

* She's way cute.

* She's way smart.

* She is a woman who walks by faith.

* She lives in a state that starts with the letter "M".

* She loves coffee and she loves Jesus and she just wrote a book combining these two loves.

* She's been on the Dr. Phil show and on the Women of Faith tour.

*New clue added--- She has an assistant named Kathryn who lent this little tidbit of info via a comment today:

I happen to work for the woman who is going to be the speaker at She Speaks, and Tera, I guarantee you she could NOT give up sugar or caffeine or sleep or food in general for 3 hours much less 3 days. Lest you think I am slamming my employer...she is telling me what to post so that she will not ruin Lysa's surprise.

Okay--- enough clues. Take a guess and I'll enter you to win an amazing gift pack DaySpring just sent me. They heard about this post and decided to help out with our little letter writing challenge. You will be soooooo excited if you win this!

And you will be sooooooo excited if you are coming to She Speaks.

Almost as excited as my backside is that I've given up sugar. Three days and counting y'all. My taste buds are madder than a wet cat.

Jennifer Rothschild.

Blogger Becky said...

I am guessing Jennifer Rothschild, too. I thought it is funny that she is married to her own "Dr. Phil." : )

I hope you are having a great Spring Break and winning more Scrabble games.

I'm so excited for She Speaks, I'm having a hard time sleeping. I think my kids will happy to have Mommy back in August. : )

Blogger Angie said...

Ok..I've done my googling and Jennifer Rothschild would be my answer.

Blogger Kimberly said...

Phew! I am so glad someone else had to google! :)
I'm going with Jennifer Rothschild, too. :)

Thanks for this giveaway! I already love DaySpring's stuff...and their super generosity on your blog makes me love 'em even more. :)

Blogger Laurie said...

I am also going to go with Jennifer Rothschild. This is exciting. She is amazing.

Blogger Tera said...

I don't think I have ever gone three days without sugar...you must be calling on your superwoman powers! I have no idea who it is but I'm sure she couldn't give up sugar for three day! That's just not possible for us mere humans.

Blogger Wifeof1Momof4 said...

I know, I know, Pasty Clairmont!!!!! Am I right? :)

and three days w/o sugar? whoa!

Blogger On Purpose said...

Okay so here is where honesty for me hits the rubber road...ouch this is hurting...I was totally clueless...oh and didn't even think to google...and as I started reading everyones answers...I was 'um hello people how can you get Jennifer's name on here, the clue was that her name started with an M!!" And as I scrolled down and almost everyone was guessing Jennifer...I had to go back and read the clues...oops...its the state that begins with M...anyway...now that I am frustrated...humiliated and tired...I am way too pooped to even guess...

Blogger Wifeof1Momof4 said...

Ok, I googled like some others and it is Jennifer Rothschild. Either way, I would be so pumped to be there!

Blogger Lisa said...

Must be Jennifer Rothschild - although I have to be honest and say I have not clue who that is. :-)

Anonymous Anonymous said...

"My taste buds are madder than a wet cat." OH MY!! You are too funny!! Thanks for the laugh this morning and THANK YOU for the chance to win this giveaway!! My guess is Jennifer Rothschild. : )

My guess in Patsy Clairmont. She lives in Michigan. I'm not sure, however, if she's been on the Dr. Phil show. Good luck ladies!

Blogger Beverlydru said...

I'm sayin' Jennifer Rothschild. I was blessed by her ministry when we were both just young things in Tallahassee. That was a few years ago.

By the way, I never mentioned how much I loved your session last Thurs. on Women Inspired. It felt amazingly personal for the format. That's just ONE of your gifts- really connecting with women. Thanks.

I could just cheat and say what everyone else has said. :)

But I am with you on the sugar...although I haven't gone three days. Does 3 hours count?

Blogger Kathryn said...

I happen to work for the woman who is going to be the speaker at She Speaks, and Tera, I guarantee you she could NOT give up sugar or caffeine or sleep or food in general for 3 hours much less 3 days.

Blogger ET @ Titus2:3-5 said...

Ack! Not reading, not reading, scrolling down...

My good friend, Google search, is just not helping me much today! Because she's from Michigan, my best guess is Patsy Clairmont. (But I can't seem to find her in connection to the book you mentioned.)

Oh, my competetive self does NOT like being uncertain about the answer. I'll click 'submit' and see if any of the other commenters have it. :)

Jennifer Rothschild

Blogger Digging for Pearls said...

Well I'm guessing Jennifer Rothschild as well since she lives in Springfield Missouri and her new book is entitled: Fresh Grounded Faith: Devotions to Awaken Your Spirit.

Sounds like She Speaks will be wonderful this year. I will be praying for it.

Blessings,
Pearls

Blogger goad092395 said...

My guess is Jennifer Rothschild. Sounds like a great conference!

Blogger Jennifer said...

Since Jennifer Rothschild has the devotion "Fresh Grounded Faith" I am guessing that is who you are talking about. I have done one of her bible studies with video and it was excellent.
Smiles!

Blogger Lola said...

Anita Renfroe? Thanks for the opportunity to win!

Blogger Melinda said...

Jennifer Rothschild. Yet another reason I'm SICK that I can't come!!

Blogger Denise Courtright said...

I'll guess it's Jennifer Rothschild. That seems to be the consensus! I'll have to check out her book.

Lysa,
You crazy thing, I cannot belive you are on this plan. I'd love to hear how you like the plan and how you're doing.

Blogger ThreeGirlyGirls said...

OH my goodness! I'm so excited!! Who is it??? I'm guessing with the other's Jennifer Rothschild and my guess is her's because I know she has a new book out.....not sure that Robin McGraw does....and I know Jennifer's assistant is saying she is telling her what to say IT MUST BE!!!! =)

Lysa I'm so excited how the Lord has provided for me to come this year!!!

Blogger Chatty Kelly said...

Well, I didn't know who but now I do (Jennifer's new book is Fresh Grounded Faith). So enter me to win the fun surprise! I love DaySpring and use their e-cards, as well as their purchased cards ALL the time.

Blogger seesawfaith said...

I wanted to say Nicole Johnson but she lives in California so I will go with Jennifer Rothschild.

We are doing her Me, Myself and Lies Bible study in our women's ministry and it is wonderful! I am halfway through and it is making a HUGE difference in the way I think about myself, and helping me stop the junk before it gets started in my thoughts!

Whoever gets to hear her will be so blessed!

Shannon

I stink at Google. I never got any of the names everyone else got. And that means I read everyone else's guesses and disqualified myself.

But I'm excited and counting the days until She Speaks anyway.

And the sugar thing. I'm so proud of you!!!! Trust me on this (this is Fitness Friday girl speaking)...once you break the addiction, you will no longer crave it. I know, I know. You cannot see how in the world that is possible. But it's true.

I once gave up all sweets for 40 days. I was going to celebrate my accomplishment by going to Cheesecake Factory (I'm so warped). I ordered a SALAD...and NEVER HAD CHEESECAKE. I didn't want it at all.

Bow down and worship God right now.


Sandy


p.s. Thanks again for directing your readers to Holly Day yesterday. My poor little blog is panting like crazy from all the traffic. It didn't know what hit it!

I did Jennifer Rothchild's Bible study and loved it! Would love to go to She Speaks - still praying God will work it out :)

Blogger Laurie said...

Lysa,

I would have a hard time giving up sugar for ONE day!

I would have to say it is Jennifer Rothschild speaking at this conference. Would love to win this drawing!

Also, I love your thoughtful and humble posts!

Blogger Shannon said...

Blogger JottinMama said...

Ohhhh - y'all are making me so jealous. I wish I could attend She Speaks. (Baby #2 will be making her grand entrance right around that time.) I'll be thinking of you all though :)

Whoever the keynote speaker is - I know it will rock :)

Blessings,
Kate :)

Blogger DeenafromIowa said...

I too googled and came up with Jennifer Rothchild.

Is that no sugar really working for you???

Blogger Mauimom1 said...

Jennifer Rothschild?

I am so embarrassed to admit I just ate 3 teaspoons of that marshmallow stuff called "fluff." Right out of the container...I even double dipped. I just could not do the "no sugar" thing, but hang in there sister, if you can do this, maybe I'll try it....tomorrow!

Jennifer Rothschild!!!

Blogger Angie said...

I feel so like I cheated. But I am also guessing Jennifer Rothschild!

Thanks, Lysa!

A guess...and a challenge...

The guess...

Jennifer Rothschild

The challenge...

Last Friday as my daughter and I went shopping I tried on a dress. She exclaimed with glee "Mom, that looks GREAT, you MUST get it. It looks so awesome on you." Of course, I bought the dress. On the long, quiet ride home she turns to me and says,"You know that dress you tried on, it made your butt look sooooo big!" To which, she quickly covered her face and said, "Oh my goodness, I did not just say that out loud!"

So, here is the challenge.....

If you remain "sugar-free" until May 30, I will send you the dress! That is the date I begin my Be Still and Know that I am God tour. I thought it would be the most appropriate date.

That's 45 days. Can you do it?

Blogger Laurie Ann said...

Jennifer Rothschild? How cool would that be?!

Blogger Tina said...

I was going to guess Beth Moore,until I found out she doesn't live in an M state...Joyce Meyer lives in Missouri(I think)...but I am going to along with the other guesses...
Jennifer Rothschild...that's my final answer :)
I hope God can get me to She Speaks again this year,it sounds like it will be another good one!

Blogger Wrinkled Shirts said...

Okay, I'm going with the majority...Jennifer Rothschild.

Thanks for the Holly Day yesterday courtesy of my buddy Sandy!

Blogger Jennifer said...

Jennifer Rothschild. Maybe?

Blogger selah said...

Jennifer Rothschild, of course!

Blogger Lindsey said...

I don't know how I missed the "little red flag" post, but I'm glad that you linked back to it so I could read it.

I'm a huge fan of written notes...have been for years. I have always sent a few notes a week, but during this past Lenten season I decided to be more intentional about it.

God blew me away with some pretty sweet letters in return as well! I love the red flag!

Blogger Beth said...

Gotta be Jennifer Rothschild!

Blogger Joyful said...

Well, we all must know Jennifer Rothschild fairly well! ;o) She was the first name that came to my mind too as I was reading your post. How exciting!!!!! How I wish I was coming. I know she'll be a blessing!

Hugs,
Joy

Blogger Toknowhim said...

Would love to win the Dayspring pack...thanks for the chance..

Blogger Leane said...

I wish I was going, sounds lovely. She is my kind of woman.

Blogger Still Learning said...

I've never heard of Jennifer Rothschild but everyone else seems to. I'll have to check her out.
Girl, I'm so proud of you on that sugar thing. Sweet pete I'll be praying for ya.

Blogger ConnieH said...

Hmm....let's see, could it be Jennifer Rotschild? ; )

Blogger Stephanie said...

Majority says it's Jennifer Rothschild but I would be super excited for Patsy Clairmont. I just saw her a the Women of Faith conference and boy oh boy what a little lady! Can I suggest both?

Blogger Deb said...

I think it is Jennifer Rothschild. I would love to win.

I was going to say me, but then I realized I don't live in a state that starts with the letter "M" and then I realized I haven't been invited! :)

Just kidding!

I was thinking Patsy, then I cheated and read everyone else's guess that it's Jennifer. Still, I'm sticking with my first guess...me, Natalie Witcher. Do I win? Do I get a medal or ribbon or something? How about a chocolate cake?

:o)

Blogger RefreshMom said...

I'm probably too late to enter, but I couldn't resist--I was born in an 'M' state and had a coffee devotional published; does that make me runner up?

I got to meet Holley from DaySpring at a conference a couple weeks ago. I don't know if she's got anything directly to do with all that DaySpring has been doing in support of Proverbs 31 Ministries and SheSpeaks, but if the rest of the folks there are anything like her (and I'm betting they are), "they're good people." It's fun to see all that's happening in support of the conference.

i love jennifer rothschild!

Blogger Lelia Chealey said...

I can't believe that every author of the books we've done on YES to GOD is going to be at She Speaks!!! I think I need to come down to hear you all! I'm sorry...ya'll! :)

Lysa, Lisa W, Micca and Jennifer too! I've got to get to Charlotte!!

Blogger Kelly S. said...

I am doing Fingerprints of God (by jennifer rothschild).....it is awesome!! And WOW can she sing!
Jennifer would be my guess.

Blogger Lynda said...

Beth Moore?

Blogger Tasha said...

Hope it is not the late to enter. Jennifer Rothschild would be so wonderful to see in person.

thank you,
Tasha
