Kelly Minter When Kelly left her hometown of Reston, Virginia for Nashville, Tennessee the catalyst behind her move was purely musical. Never did she think that part of her journey would eventually include writing two women’s Bible studies for LifeWay (“No Other Gods: Confronting Our Modern Day Idols” and “Ruth: Loss, Love & Legacy”), speaking at women’s conferences and events, while teaching Bible studies at her home church. Having the opportunity to share with women from the stage is a passion of Kelly’s, whether it’s teaching from scripture, leading worship, or simply singing her songs with her guitar. Her desire is to see women make the connection between the pages of Scripture and their very real, and often hurting, lives. Doing this in the context of a live group of individuals is what inspires Kelly the most. It is the flesh and blood of everything else. |

The Skit Guys Tommy Woodard and Eddie James are The Skit Guys. They have been best friends since high school. Think of them as the wise guys in class who had everyone laughing and managed to make a career out of it. They’ve been teaching God’s word using comedy, drama and whatever category talking action figures fit into for over twenty years. |

The Skitzy Chicks Carrie Varnell and Melinda Whitten are the Skitzy Chicks. They met and became fast friends nine years ago while pregnant with their last children. They enjoy arguing over who endured the more difficult pregnancy (it was Melinda of course!) and quickly began writing and performing the comedy that is their lives. God continues to bless their families, friendship and ministry with plenty of humor, a few tears, and a lot of love. |
