Meet Kimberly
Background Kimberly Sowell,M.Div., has reached thousands of women through her high-energy messages fueled by a deep love for Jesus. Kimberly has a passion for spiritual renewal, stirring up within the women of God a desire to see their lives through God’s eyes, to care about what God cares about, and to have a widespread impact for the kingdom of God. “Powerful,” “anointed,” and “engaging” are the words people are using to describe her messages. Women connect with Kimberly through her funny stories of everyday life and love, and her fresh perspectives in applying the Bible draw women to life-changing commitments to live as Christ. The strength of Kimberly’s ministry comes from her commitment to use the Word of God as the driving force for her messages. Kimberly is a graduate of Southeastern Seminary and is the founder of Kingdom Heart Ministries, a ministry dedicated to inspiring women to make their relationship with Jesus Christ the center of who they are and how they live each moment, growing in Christ and sharing their faith with the world. Through Kingdom Heart, Kimberly's ministry includes motivational speaking, women’s spiritual revival weekends, writing, missions, and evangelism. Kimberly leads international mission teams of women, and mentors women in missions and women's ministry. Kimberly's heartbeat for the world to know Christ shines through her messages. She has been featured on Strength for Living radio program of the North American Mission Board and such TV programs as The Harvest Show and Rejoice! Her book, Journey to Confidence: Becoming Women Who Witness, has become a standard motivational tool for women to learn to seize the everyday opportunities to share their faith, and to build their confidence to tell others about Jesus Christ. Her second Bible study in the series, Journey to Significance, is mobilizing women to fulfill their divine destiny. Kimberly is also a writer for the popular Christian women’s magazine, Missions Mosaic, and writes for several web magazines. Whether it’s messages of spiritual growth or down-home humor, in-depth Bible study or evangelism, what does her audience say about her? “She’s real, and that’s refreshing." 
I’m about as real as they come. I often misspell my name when I’m typing, all of my sweatshirts endorse my college football team, I wear high heels to the grocery store, and I’ve been known in a pinch to serve fruit rollups for breakfast to my three young children. (They will survive!) Yet as a woman of God, the cause of Christ grips my soul and is the driving force in how I choose to fill my days.
The world is filled with millions of forgotten faces, forgotten by man but never by God, who desperately need to drink of the Living Water of Jesus, and it is my heart's desire to be a part of getting the good news to their ears. No one can paint a picture like God, and when I read Revelation 7:9, my heart is filled with wonder as I catch a glimpse of every tribe, every tongue, every nation worshipping in white before God’s throne. I want to look around and see faces I recognize because I chose to live my days to "seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness" (Matt. 6:33). So until that day in eternity, I’m following Jesus and joyfully loving my babies (usually with fruits and vegetables!), cleaving to my husband, studying and teaching God’s Word, boldly pleading with Christian women to love the Lord fervently and love the lost enough to embrace holiness and talk about Jesus, recording on paper whatever wisdom or wit God would flow through my pen, and counting the days until my next mission trip. What a joy to serve Jesus! And what an honor to minister to the women of God. I will prayerfully look forward to seeing you soon at an upcoming event, my sister in Christ! May you go forth today with a kingdom heart.
