Sheila Atchley is an artist, author, and Bible teacher who speaks to women in midlife and the fourth quarter - women who have been faithful, capable, and strong, and who find themselves suddenly wondering what comes next. She brings her whole life to the platform: the crisis, the grace, the paintbrush picked up at forty-five, the art that now hangs in every state and nearly every nation. She is equally at home in Scripture and in story, and she has a particular gift for making women feel simultaneously seen and undone, in the best possible way. Warm, witty, and theologically grounded, Sheila leaves a room changed. If you are looking for a speaker who will care about your women and then send them home to their ordinary lives far more awake to the glory in them…she is your person.

Reviews

(…just a few. I can provide more…)

“Sheila is a gifted and generous guide who not only makes art with her hands, but with her whole life. It’s a gift to get to learn from her.”

— Kris Camealy, of "The Refined Podcast"

“Sheila is witty and hilarious, and somehow also a gifted teacher in profound ways. Her messages have impacted my life tremendously. What you’ll experience w/Sheila is content that comes from deep fellowship with Holy Spirit, backed up by Scripture at every point…the value of her teaching is beyond measure. I highly recommend!”

— Elisa Tretham, owner and founder of Sherwood Media

“Sheila has taught at my international retreats twice over the years, and has a wealth of experience teaching. She beautifully blends her knowledge of art and her faith to share her creative skill with others. Having her teach in a creative and/or faith based setting would be a welcome addition to any conference or retreat, here or abroad.”

— Laura McCollough, owner of "Art and Faith Creative International Retreats"
