ATLANTA, Sept. 16 /Christian Newswire/ -- Kimberley Kennedy's 'left at the altar' experience is not about a woman and her man - it's all about a real woman and her God. Her story of hope and healing is for every woman who has felt the heartbreak of rejection.

Kimberley will share her story on September 21, 7:00pm, at Real Women in Atlanta. Real Women is a monthly city-wide, cross-denominational, evangelistic Bible study (and much more) centrally located at the campus of In Touch Ministries. Real Women is free and open to the public; details, directions, and registration at www.RealWomenEvents.com.

"My life was humming along like any other single, career-minded woman when a man came along and changed it forever. Sound familiar? The end result was a fairy tale wedding that at the last minute didn't happen and a personal downward spiral that nearly killed me," said Kimberley Kennedy. "Actually, I shouldn't say end result because it turned out to be a new beginning. And today, I can honestly tell you I wouldn't trade a second of that horrible pain for the life I have now."

Encouraging others by sharing her story has become Kimberley's ministry. "I spent most of my life in television, reporting on other people's lives, but today I'm out writing and talking about my own. There's a verse in the Bible that says we should share each others' burdens and that's what I want to do: use my own experience to help other women and men who are dealing with the pain of rejection and the feelings of worthlessness and hopelessness to see themselves as worthy and wonderful and find hope in their lives once again. Why? Because I've been there. I get it."

Also on the program at Real Women on September 21 is Ashley Hicks, America's go-to gal for effective purity conferences and founder of PINC Ministries ("Purity & Identity in Christ"). Girls and women of all ages will enjoy Ashley's "PINC Yes & No Fashion Show" and will be powerfully impacted by her message of modesty and purity and its dramatic conclusion.
