Guest Speakers:

Molly Marley

Molly Marley is a former city girl who moved out west after marrying her husband Taylor, a sixth generation rancher. After her husband was killed in a ranching accident at 32 years old, Molly began writing weekly devotionals detailing her grief journey with the focus on living out the scriptures and keeping her husbands positive outlook while rearing their two young daughters. Taylor always said that if he could ask God one question it would be, "Why am I so blessed?" Molly shares the story of Taylor's approach to life and her approach to his death to strengthen the faith of other believers and bring glory to God's Kingdom. Molly is an Art teacher and splits her time between her hometown of Fort Worth, Texas and the ranch in New Mexico with her daughters and two spaniels.

Bevin Bold

Bevin Bold is a passionate Bible teacher and missions mobilizer who leads  alongside her husband at AIMS.ORG, an organization targeting unreached people groups with the gospel. Since graduating Texas Bible Institute in 2000, Bevin has served in local church and overseas ministry. In 2008, she and her husband moved to Iraq as missionaries where they planted a house church, baptized former Muslims, and opened a cafe. Bevin draws on her experiences from the Middle East, weaving history, culture, and personal stories in her teaching to make the Bible relevant and relatable to today's world. A loving mom to Haven and Honor, she enjoys spending time with her husband and two kids in the mountains of Colorado, where they currently reside.
