Shelley is an ordinary person, just like you, with struggles and trials. And yet, God is doing extra-ordinary things through this jar of clay.2 Cor 4:7 says, We have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all surpassing power is from God and not from us. Shelley is the author of the website, www.FindYourTrueBeauty.com, that reaches thousands of girls each month around the world with God's truth. She is also the author of the book, Mirror Mirror...Am I Beautiful, Looking Deeper to Find Your True Beauty and has co-authored a book with her husband CJ, The Mathematics of Jesus, Making Sense of Life When Life Doesn't Seem to Add Up. Shelley's openness and vulnerability as she shares her own story of hope and healing will inspire and encourage you. Shelley Hitz has been ministering to teens since 1998 alongside her husband, C.J. They currently travel and speak to teens around the country. Shelley's main passion is to share God's truth and the freedom in Christ she has found with others. She does this through her website and through her speaking engagements.

  • Find Your True Beauty: Overcoming the Lies Women Believe
  • Did you know that 24% of women would sacrifice 3 years of their life to be thin, that girls as young as five have expressed fears of getting fat and 90% of high school junior and senior girls diet regularly even though only between 10-15% are considered overweight. Does this surprise you? Do you wonder why this is happening? I believe one of the biggest influences on girls today regarding beauty is the media. Using powerful videos and PowerPoint slides, Shelley Hitz will help expose the lies girls believe about their beauty and the steps to become free...helping you find your true beauty!
  • Distorted View of God
  • Did you know that your view of God impacts everything you do? It impacts the decisions you make and your choices in areas like sexuality and marital issues. Shelley shares from her personal experience, research and scripture in a way that will challenge you and help you grow.
  • Shopping, Fashion, Modesty
  • In our culture today, anything goes when it comes to fashion. The world's philosophy is "if you got it, flaunt it." However, Shelley shares a powerful message for girls challenging them to honor God with the clothes they wear. She approaches a difficult topic with grace and real solutions. Meet the "Accidental Immodesty" girls and be prepared to be challenged to honor God with your fashion choices. This presenation can be adapted for younger girls (4th and 5th grade) as well as teenagers and women. Plan on having a fashion show event the week after Shelley's talk if appropriate for your setting. Have each participant choose one outfit from their closet to model that is honoring to God, applying the modesty tips and guidelines they learned in the presentation.
  • Healing the Broken Hearted
  • Many things in life can leave you feeling broken hearted. Divorce. Death. Difficult Break Up. Abuse. Shelley shares her story of sexual abuse and leads others to the One who can truly bring healing...Jesus.
  • Power of Forgiveness
  • Anyone and everyone can relate to this seminar. Shelley shares the powerful story of her Grandma's death and the path Jesus took her down to forgive her Grandma's murderer. Prepare to be challenged and changed through this seminar.
  • The Rollercoaster Ride of Sex Outside of Marriage
  • Shelley Hitz speaks honestly from her own past to challenge teens to sexual purity and ultimately abstinence. Using powerful illustrations and that are backed with scripture, Shelley shares from her heart.
    Shelley’s passion to help teens unearth the truth in the turmoil of adolescence is incredible! She has made herself available to teens from every venue she speaks at, and around the world through her website. I have been encouraged and touched by the stories she has shared where lives of teens are being changed by simple truth and challenging cultural lies. Shelley and her husband are a part of our local community and I have seen their passion and dedication, as well as their lifestyle, firsthand over the last several years. They are devoted to God, and sensitive to His leadership in their lives. I highly recommend Shelley for any venue where teens need to experience the power of faith in everyday life.
    Right away, one can see that Shelley has a heart for helping young women to find their true identity in Christ. Her warm, friendly personality encourages her audience to open their hearts to the truth that she presents. She speaks in a way that is passionate, transparent and engaging, and her presentation is completely saturated with the Truth of God's Word. The way that Shelley Hitz addresses the tough issues that really need to be addressed among today's teens is so refreshing! She shares from her own personal experiences and struggles to show how Jesus has worked in her life to bring her freedom and new life in Him. Shelley does a wonderful job using creative illustrations to help her audience really grasp what she is saying. These include videos, music, personal demonstrations, and interpretive dance. After each session. I would highly recommend Shelley Hitz to speak at your event.
    Shelley Hitz knows just what to say to today’s teens. She hits on all the vital issues they deal with on a regular basis. She has the answer to these issues and shares in such a personal way that challenges one to examine their heart and do something about it. We will definitely invite Shelley to speak to many more teens about God’s love and forgiveness and how He is the only One who can make a difference and change a life. I have enjoyed getting to know her on a personal level. She is genuine and has a deep desire to see others victorious in Him.
