Priscilla Shirer, as a communication major in college, had plans to be a television news anchor — but God had other ideas. While interning at a Christian radio station in Houston, she began to receive invitations to do Bible studies at small women’s events in the area. At only 18 she shared the simple truths of Scripture that she was studying in her own personal time with the Lord... and she has been in full-time ministry ever since. Priscilla Shirer’s ministry to women across the country and around the world is focused on the expository teaching of the Word of God. Her desire is to see women come to a full understanding of who they are in Christ by hearing the uncompromising truth of Scripture. She is author of He Speaks to Me: Preparing to Hear from God and Discerning The Voice Of God: How to Recognize When God Speaks.
