A couple times a year, I like to put out a little cyberspace P.R. for those I love to follow. Those whose lives have impacted mine. Some in small ways, some in very significant ways.
There are the obvious “in-the-lime-light” blogs that are written by women who touch our lives with theirs. But there are also some “not-so-well-known” blogs that are written by women who touch our lives in equal measure.
I big-time heart each of these women and how they live out loud for Jesus!
So, here’s a list of some of my favorites. Some are ‘famous’ – some are not – but all bless my life with theirs. My prayer is that you will pop into their pages and allow them to do the same for you!
And here they are in no particular order…(Drum roll please!)

Since Penny’s last name begins with a “z”, I’ll wrap it up here and save some more for next time.
But isn’t it exciting to know that God is using His girls to make an impact in different ways in different places! I love being part of His forever family where we can spur one another on to good works – encourage each other and even do a little P.R. for each other!
The women I’ve listed are absolutely AMAZING and I really want to encourage you to check their sites out! Sometimes God uses different people to speak into our lives at different places of need – in different seasons. We need each other. Perhaps God wants to use you to encourage one of these wonderful women. Pray about it. Visit their site and see if God wants to use you to speak life into their lives.
If you know of a woman who you’d like to nominate for my next list of favs, please be sure to leave it in the comment section or email me.
There are many women who don’t have a blog that have also impacted my life with their own. A big “THANK YOU” to all of you…and you know who you are! 🙂
By the way, if you haven’t subscribed to my blog yet, I’d love to share part of each week with you. Right now we’re studying Philippians together. You can click here to subscribe and recieve your Bible study in your inbox. Or you can click on the Google or Networkedblog feeder links on the right hand side of the page.
Blessed to be on your list Stephanie. I don't have a “list,” but you're on my daily blog tour. 🙂 I appreciate you, sweet friend, and your love for the Lord and His Word!
Stephanie, I am so glad the Lord allowed me to know you. You have a precious heart for the Lord and you always bless me! Thank you so much for including me in this wonderful list of godly women. I am honored…especially that you would consider me a favorite. I have encountered a cyber-bump with several of these precious women, so I’m excited to go on a treasure hunt to find the others. Thank you for this list. Blessings to you, my sweet friend!
Stephanie, I am honored to be on your list sweet friend! Thank you for encouraging me in this way.
May God continue to richly bless you in all you do for Him!
You are so sweet! I appreciate the encouragement you offer to me and so many others. I know I can't hug you in person, but please accept this cyber hug {{{hug}}}} and *kiss*! 🙂 (oh, and I'm adding your page to the Write2ignite “links” list, too. Our new blog should be up and running in the next few weeks and your blog will be there!
What an awesome blessing Stephanie! We are iron sharpening each other.
God shines His favor on the hearts of women that are living in His will!
You have been very instrumental in helping me to dig into Scripture more (knowing that I was going “somewhere” with a sister that loves God!)
Julie ~ I love your tender heart for God and others! So thankful to know you and honored to minister with you on SD! Can't wait til April!

Donna ~ You are such a blessing, friend – in more ways than you know! I can't wait to see your new Write2Ignite blog! AND thank you so much for adding me to your list!
Kela ~ You have no idea how much you encourage me! I love that we're walking through the Word together and I love how you so obviously love Jesus!
Wow, Stephanie! What a blessing to come home this evening and find out I'm on your favs list! Thank you so much for adding me. You are one of my favs too 🙂
Blessings,
Penny
You so encourage me so. Thank you so much for the shout-out. Precious, precious heart for God. Blessed to be on this journey with you.
