GUEST SPEAKER
Jenni Thyng

Jenni is an engaging, ‘live out loud’ speaker and vocalist, who shares her passion for the Lord at every opportunity. As an “identity crisis survivor” she uses scripture as a compass as she navigates living out True Joy in All Seasons. She uses humor, relatable examples, and solid Biblical foundations to speak into the hearts of others. Jenni is no stranger to mishaps, stumbling blocks judgment, pride…and victory over it all in Jesus Christ!
