TerKeurst to bring message of faith to Franklin

art faithAcclaimed faith speaker Lysa TerKeurst will take the stage at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 20, at the Smoky Mountain Center of the Performing Arts in Franklin.

TerKeurst is president of Proverbs 31 Ministries and the New York Times best-selling author of The Best Yes, Unglued, Made to Crave, and 16 other books. She’s inspiring and faithful and has a gentle soul that shines goodness everywhere she goes. 

TerKeurst’s personal journey to follow God captured national media attention when she and her husband adopted two teenage boys from a war-torn orphanage in Liberia, Africa. They never imagined their decision would start a chain reaction within their community, which inspired other families to adopt over 45 children from the same orphanage. TerKeurst’s story led to appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Good Morning America, The 700 Club, and Focus on the Family radio, as well as in publications such as USA Today and Woman’s Day.

Musical guest Michael O’Brien is a much-accomplished music veteran most known for his seven-year tenure as lead singer of the Christian band, NewSong. Now he leads worship at various events, leads marriage enrichment nights, and travels with friends such as Lysa TerKeurst.

Tickets start at $15.
