Billie Corley

Billie Corley is a writer, speaker, bible teacher and founder of Billie Corley Ministries and has been in Women’s Ministry for over twenty-one years. Her heart’s desire can be summed up in her ministry’s slogan “Seeking to Teach, Inspire and Encourage Women Everywhere for Jesus Christ.” 

Billie’s life drastically changed when she surrendered her heart to Jesus Christ in her late twenties. Immediately, she had a burden for ladies’ ministry and after a thirty-one-year career in Corporate America, entered full-time Christian service. 

Billie shares her love for God’s word through her speaking and writing. When she’s not writing, Billie spends time hosting and preparing for her annual women’s retreat and monthly bible studies. 

Billie is a published author of several articles both online and in print through Lighthouse Bible Studies and Dressed in Love Press. 

Billie serves with spiritual vigor, joy, and enthusiasm, and welcomes the opportunity to share at your ladies’ events. 

Billie is a wife, stepmom, grandmommie, and great-grandmommie and lives in south Georgia with her soul-mate, Ben and cat named, Blue. 

You can follow Billie on FB @ Billie Sue Strawder Corley or on her ministry page, Billie Corley Ministries. She can be found on Instagram @billiesuecorley.

Andy Hollifield

Andy is a published multi-award-winning author with devotions appearing on the ChristianDevotions.US website as well as the CBN.com website. I'm a contributing author in the Starr Ayers/Stephanie Pavlantos book "Room at the Table." I'm currently working on my first novel and am assembling a book of inspirational scripture-based short stories along with moral, personal, family, and comical stories. 

I'm the founder and director of H.O.P.E. Ministries in Candler, NC. While operating primarily as a food ministry, we also provide backpacks, Easter baskets, and Christmas shoebox gifts to crisis pregnancy centers, domestic violence shelters, schools, government agencies, and other ministries for their clients and families. We also provide disaster relief and aid for unwed mothers and their children. 

I'm also a born-again Christian and former Independent Missionary Baptist pastor. 

I love driving, writing, helping people, and making folks laugh and feel better every chance I get. I take Jesus, my faith, and others seriously, but never take myself too seriously. I can laugh at myself, and I'm also an eternal optimist. I have little tolerance for pessimists and stupid people. The latter, because I've been one on numerous occasions. Life is too short to be negative.

He currently teaches middle school English and writes speculative fiction.His fiction has earned a first place Foundation Award at the Blue Ridge Mountain Christian Writers Conference, a Fiction Carolina Christian Writers Award, and a second place Florida Tapestry Award.
