Eva Marie Everson spoke for our Women’s Christmas Tea in December of 2004 and what a great message she had for us. Her humor paved the way for the truth of the Word to be received and responded to. It was obvious that her love of scripture is the foundation of her ministry. It was a joy working with her in every way. She was professional and at the same time, immediately felt like part of the family. We would love to have Eva Marie involved in our Women’s Ministry in the future.

Weekend Retreats
Arise, My Soul, Arise!
By far the most spiritually challenging weekend you will ever encounter! Using eight songs found in Scripture, Eva Marie will guide you toward spiritual maturity. Learn more about being freed from the captivity of sin, learning to be His servant, receiving your call and moving constantly toward the throne of grace and mercy. This is a very intense, seven-session weekend. It comes complete with teaching, breakout sessions and one-on-one prayer time. If your group is seeking spiritual maturity in Christ, this is the place to begin! Arise, My Soul, Arise will be released as a book in late 2007.
Falling Into the Bible
After her 2002 trip to Israel, Eva Marie wrote an acclaimed series titled Falling Into The Bible for Crosswalk.com. Based on those articles, this weekend presentation explores The Land of the Bible and details the spiritual lessons learned from the holy sites. See and feel the places where God first moved, where Jesus walked, and where His followers first brought Christianity into being. Your group will leave on fire for the Word of God and with a greater understanding as to why the only place we’ve been commanded to pray for is within the boundaries of Israel.
Prayer; What a Concept
Silence. Speaking boldly. Coming into the Presence of the Most High God. Do you really understand what happens in prayer? Are you ready to take a weekend to find out? This retreat requires women to be ready to sit silent before God as it teaches the awesome power and awesome honor of conversing with God.
The Woman In Me Seminar
Studying the lives of several of the Bibles most popular female characters, Eva Marie tells how each one of them has left an indelible mark in each of our lives. The seminar can be a any number of parts of a series that includes the stories of Hannah, Jezebel, Mary the mother of Jesus, Mary of Bethany, the Shulamite Woman, Deborah, Ruth, and the Queen of Sheba. This seminar is among Eva Marie’s most requested presentations.
Shorter Presentations
Becoming the Bridegroom’s Bride
“I believe the sweetest proposal of eternal marriage was whispered from the Cross,” Eva Marie states emphatically. Eva Marie explains what it means to be the Bride of Christ, what is expected of her during the betrothal, how she remains faithful to her vow to serve her Bridegroom, and how Christ prepares a Place for her in Glory.
Power of One
Moses, the man who led his people out of captivity and yet he began life as just ONE little baby boy, ONE who survived. Gideon, ONE poor man from ONE poor tribe, and yet he successfully led warriors into battle and became a noted Judge of Israel. Mary, ONE young maiden, poor and from an oppressed people, and yet she gave birth to the Messiah. Jesus, ONE man, ONE solitary life that changed eternity. In this workshop, young people and adults learn more about what God can do with them, and the Power of One. This topic is perfect for youth rallies, etc.
Why Jesus Understands Your Past & Cares About Your Future
In this zany study of the first verses found in the gospel, Eva Marie sweeps listeners through a history lesson of the genealogy of Jesus and, in the end, explains why Jesus so perfectly understands our past and cares about our future. This teaching is excellent for bringing believers to a new level of intimacy with Jesus and unbelievers to the foot of the cross.
Sex, Lies, and High School
(Presented with Daughter Jessica)
“Our children are in a daily war. If you have a television, computer, radio, magazines or books in your home, the war is within your own four walls.” Based on their books “Sex, Lies, and High School” and “Sex, Lies, and the Media,” Eva Marie and Jessica Everson are sure to captivate audiences of Christian parents and grandparents as they explain the effects of media on today’s youth culture. Eva Marie is associated with the National Coalition for Protection of Children & Families and has done extensive research into this critical subject matter. Due to the sensitive nature, teens and younger children should be excluded from this presentation.
