Women’s Preachfest

Each year around 20 women from Barneys are trained in preaching. At PreachFest, we have the privilege of hearing short sermons from some of these remarkable women. Barneys is blessed with many incredible women who possess profound insights into the Bible and living for Jesus, yet we don’t often get the opportunity to hear from them. This event is our chance to be inspired and enriched by their wisdom and perspectives. These videos capture those powerful and uplifting moments!
