2022 Annual Praise Report
Our Anchor Holds

Letter from Nancy
From the early days of my childhood, I grew to know and love hymns and gospel songs—often singing every stanza and learning the deep, rich theology many of those hymns infused into my mind and heart. The hymns that are particularly beloved to me are those which are grounded in Scripture and deepen our understanding of the great themes of the Christian faith. They lead us to rejoice in His greatness, power, and glory; His saving grace and His eternal plan.
This ministry report is cause for celebration! Its pages are filled with stories of God’s goodness—of Heaven’s rule over the events of the past year. As you read of the victories God has granted and the lives that have been impacted in the process, may you delight in knowing that your partnership is a vital part of the song God is writing in and through this ministry.
The Revive Our Hearts team and I look forward to the new ministry year as we help women thrive in Christ in these challenging days. Thank you for your prayers and financial support toward that end.
Joining you in the everlasting song,
Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth

Sharing God’s Word in Person and Online
Nearly five thousand women gathered in Indianapolis in September for True Woman ’22: Heaven Rules.
Here are just a few highlights:
- A preconference on gender and sexuality
- Word-centered messages from 20+ speakers including 28 breakouts
- 38,000 women joined via livestream from 62 countries
- The conference was livestreamed in three languages simultaneously: English, Spanish, and Portuguese
- More than 350 teenagers attended the True You Teen Track
- Friday evening’s Cry Out! prayer gathering with worship led by
Shane & Shane - Stirring testimonies and videos including Colleen Chao who is battling terminal cancer and “Samuel’s Story”
This was the best True Woman Conference ever. It was completely and utterly fixated on heaven and the glory of God. —“Jean”
With more than 470,000 words in the English language, there seems to be none adequate to describe the blessing we experienced at True Woman ’22 in Indianapolis! —“Maria”
True Woman ’22 was my first Revive Our Hearts event in person, and my fourteen-year-old daughter went with me. Our hearts are full. The highlight was that my daughter committed her heart to Christ on her knees while she was there. Hallelujah! In my daughter’s words: “Now He is not the God of my parents anymore, but MY God.” All glory to Christ forever and ever, amen.
— “Jackie,” True Woman ’22 attendee
Because of Your Support
Shannan’s Story
When Shannan arrived at this year’s True Woman Conference, her mind was distracted.
I am a pastor’s wife, and I came to the conference exhausted and spent much of the time stressing. I struggled to sit still for long periods of time and felt like I wasn’t connecting with the teaching. “Lord, please help me listen,” I prayed—but still I felt nothing.
On the plane ride home, Shannan pulled out a book that she had been given at the conference. As she read the first chapter, something inside her broke.
I knew I had been trying to solve all my problems in my own strength. I confessed to the Lord right there on the plane, and as the tears finally came, I sent myself this text: “It’s going to be different from here. Remember who is on your side. Remember that you have no reason to fear. Listen and pursue the Lord like nothing else in life matters.”
God spoke to Shannan’s heart in His perfect timing. Still, she had no idea how much she was about to need the message that “Heaven rules.”
My husband came to pick me up at the airport. He got out of the car, nearly collapsed onto me, and told me I needed to drive. The situation escalated quickly, and my husband started asking me to call 911.
It’s in moments like these that the faithfulness and promises of God hold us fast. That’s what happened to Shannan after her husband was transported via ambulance to the nearest hospital.

I looked up and saw the dry erase board on the wall. I remembered the story [from the conference] of a husband writing “Heaven rules” on the board of the hospital room where his wife delivered their stillborn son and knew God was with us.
I write to share this story because I know countless hours of preparation, organization, study, and prayer went into making this conference happen. The Lord was faithful to use every little bit to prepare me for what was ahead of me. He used the weekend to call me back to His side. He refreshed my heart and restored my joy.
Shannan was equipped with resources exactly when she needed them—resources that you have made possible through your partnership with this ministry. Because of your support, Shannan not only survived her difficult circumstances—God revived her heart in the midst of them.
Thank you for making it possible for this ministry to help women build their lives on the solid rock of Christ.

A New Ministry for Teen Girls!
True You aims to help girls between the ages of thirteen and nineteen hold fast to Jesus.
Staci Rudolph, one of the voices behind True You, shares why this endeavor is needed for such a time as this.
Q: True You is the newest member of the Revive Our Hearts family! Will you tell us about it?
A: True You is geared toward teens aged 13–19 with the mission of equipping them with a biblical lens for today’s trending topics. We don’t want to stray away from those topics or avoid them because they’re controversial. Our goal is to illuminate them with the truth of God’s word and equip young women to do so as well.
Q: Why do teen girls need this message now?
A: Today’s culture presents truth as an ever-changing idea. We’re told that it’s different for each person, and therefore, there is no right or wrong when it comes to living our lives. This leaves individuals, especially teenagers who are still forming their personal views, extremely confused and easily persuaded into various ideals and beliefs. Our culture needs to hear that there is absolute truth and it’s found in the Word of God. We want teen girls to know that God cares about the way they live their lives, has a purpose for them individually, and desires to see them live anchored in the freedom of His truth, not the confusion of the world.
Q: What are you praying that God will do through True You?
A: That God will reveal Himself to teens in a special way. The world is constantly telling us that the Bible is obsolete, sexist, outdated, etc. I want teens to experience His Word as the living, life-giving truth that it is. I want them to grow in an intimate relationship with God that extends past youth groups and the mandatory practices their parents put in place for them. Those are great and necessary things, but I hope that through True You they learn to seek the Lord on their own and rest in a personal, thriving relationship with Him.

2023 and Beyond
Looking ahead to 2023, Revive Our Hearts seeks to reach more women with the life-transforming truth of the gospel—women like Gladys from Venezuela who has been listening to the Aviva Nuestros Corazones podcast:
I began to know my Savior and to see everything He has done for me that I did not deserve—His grace, His forgiveness. God has been transforming my heart with His Word. He has taught me to embrace the beauty of the gospel and God’s design for me as a woman and as His servant—for His glory.
Here’s a look at some initatives we’re planning for the next year:
