Clayton King Ministries was honored to have Lauren Alexander speak for our Summer Staff to prepare them for a summer of ministry. Lauren communicated with such grace, humility, and boldness. Her life is an open book for all to see, and her passion for Jesus and making His name known is undeniable. Some of the takeaways from Lauren's message to our staff remained with us the entire summer. In fact, one particular phrase became our mantra of sorts to help us persevere and push through no matter how hard the day may be. There are certain people that have such a unique way of captivating an audience, and Lauren most definitely has our attention when she communicates. I'm thankful for her time spent with Jesus behind closed doors, because her intimate relationship with Jesus certainly shines through in every word she speaks. 

Jessica Wiseman, one of our staff members, said this about Lauren: 'I knew Lauren was a fantastic person to be around, but didn't realize what a great communicator she was! She speaks from a real and passionate place, and a lot of what she said in her talk has stuck with me, even through a summer of hearing so many other great speakers and sermons. I think she's got such a great gift to encourage and empower through her communication of the Gospel.' Lauren comes with passion, power, and purpose. She is doing incredible things for the Kingdom!
