Continuing in my “Follow Friday” series (you can catch up HERE), I’d like to recommend 5 more people I think you should follow.

This time, they all happen to be women.  And they’re all incredibly strong leaders.

Jenni Catron – Executive Director at Cross Point Church in Nashville, TN, I first met Jenni as she led our staff in thinking critically about recruiting and maintaining volunteers.  Jenni is an incredible thinker and leader.  Read her blog HERE, and follow her on Twitter HERE.

Lindsey Nobles – Director of Corporate Communications at Thomas Nelson Publishers, Lindsey is also a Compassion International Blogger, and just returned from Guatemala.  She’s a great writer.  You can read her blog HERE, and follow her on Twitter HERE.

Rachel Evans – Author of Monkey Town, Rachel offers a refreshing look at faith and theology, and offers readers the freedom to doubt, question, and wrestle through major issues.  You can read her blog HERE, and follow her on Twitter HERE.

Anne Jackson – Anne is an author and speaker, and her book Mad Church Disease (Amazon link) is an incredible read (I’m sure her newest, Permission to Speak Freely, is good, too…I just haven’t read it yet).  But the coolest thing about her is that she rode her bike across the entire country in order to raise money to build wells in Africa (via the Ride:Well Tour).  You can read her blog HERE, and follow her on Twitter HERE.

Heather Zempel – Heather is the Discipleship Pastor at National Community Church in Washington, DC, and author of the small group study, Sacred Roads.  When I first came on staff at Grace, I began trying to connect with small group pastors around the country, and came across National Community Church.  I connected with Heather, and her blog was invaluable as I began to shape my views on small groups.  You can read her blog HERE, and follow her on Twitter HERE.

Who would you have included in this list?
