01
THE WORD
Truth that feeds you.
Christ-centered biblical teaching that helps you understand God's Word and discover how Scripture speaks into everyday life.
More than a conference
An invitation to feast on God's Word.
Women are carrying a lot. We're raising families, leading organizations, building businesses, serving churches and communities, caring for others, navigating relationships, walking through transitions, waiting on prayers to be answered, and fighting battles nobody else knows we're fighting.
And sometimes, even women who love God become tired. We can know Scripture and still feel spiritually hungry. We can believe God and still have questions. We can serve others and still need to be filled.
That's why there's a table.
I Ate the Word Tour is a gathering created for women to step away from the noise, sit at the table, and feast on truth through God's Word, worship, prayer, honest conversations, real-life wisdom, and authentic community.There is a seat at the table for you.
What's waiting at the table
Come expecting more than a message.
Every I Ate the Word Tour gathering is intentionally designed to move women from hearing truth to living truth.
02
ENCOUNTER
A place to meet with God.
Prayer, reflection, sacred moments, and space to respond,to move beyond learning about God and intentionally draw near to Him.
03
WORSHIP
An atmosphere of His presence.
Turn your attention away from the noise and toward the One who is worthy. This is your opportunity to exhale and worship.
04
REAL LIFE
Truth for where you actually live.
Biblical wisdom for relationships, careers, families, leadership, identity, purpose, disappointments, decisions, grief, transitions, and everyday struggles.
05
COMMUNITY
A table where you belong.
Different generations, backgrounds, experiences, seasons, and stories,but one table, one faith, and one Word.
06
TRANSFORMATION
Don't just leave inspired. Leave changed.
Leave spiritually nourished, personally challenged, practically equipped, and ready to live what God has spoken.
Discover the Experience
Come hungry. Leave nourished.
The goal isn't simply to fill rooms. It's to fill women with the Word,and send them home equipped to live what they've received.
Our Vision
A movement of women hungry for the Word.
To ignite a movement of women who hunger for God's Word, encounter Him through it, and live transformed by it.
We envision women across generations, cultures, communities, and seasons of life gathering around God's Word,not simply to know more Scripture, but to know God more deeply and boldly live what they believe.
Our Mission
Truth women can carry home.
I Ate the Word Tour creates transformative gatherings where women come hungry for truth and leave nourished by God's Word.
Through biblical teaching, worship, prayer, authentic conversation, diverse voices, real-life wisdom, and meaningful community, we help women understand Scripture, encounter God personally, and apply His truth to everyday life.
She comes hungry. She encounters the Word. She leaves nourished.The Word goes home with her.
Meet the women at the table
