Raising The Standard Of Holiness One Woman At A Time

Preaching the Gospel since the age of 16, God has blessed Monica with many opportunities to spread the Gospel throughout the nation. She has appeared on the “700 Club”, “Miracles Today” and has guest hosted several Christian television programs.

Also, while attending Spelman College she was a volunteer tutor for the adult literacy program sponsored by the Martin Luther King Jr. Center for Social Change.

“Now He had to go through Samaria..When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, "Will you give me a drink?" (His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.) The Samaritan woman said to him, "You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?" (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.) Jesus answered her, "If you knew the gift of God and Who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked Him and He would have given you living water." "Sir," the woman said, "you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his flocks and herds?" Jesus answered, "Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life." The woman said to him, "Sir, give me this water so that I won't get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water." …Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in Him because of the woman's testimony…" (John 4:4-15;39).
Jesus was destined to go through Samaria. The woman at the well was destined to meet Him there. The destiny of the people in the town depended upon that one encounter. One Savior – One Woman - One Destiny. Whether from a pulpit, a pen, or over a cup of latte, the mission of Woman of Destiny Ministries is to “Reach the world with the Gospel, one woman at a time”. Empowered by the Word of God, Woman of Destiny Ministries is committed to empowering women to fulfill their destiny.
Monica is an anointed Bible teacher, author and conference speaker. In addition to her itinerant ministry she exercises her gift of writing as the Charlotte Christianity Examiner. She also serves the Volunteer Ministry of the Billy Graham Library in Charlotte, NC where she currently resides.

Sister... Thanks so much for your kind and encouraging words of destiny! Truly today, they are well received and well delivered. My husband suffered today with the loss of his grandfather and the unexpected loss of his aunt, all within 3 hours of one another. However sad we may feel, we know the truth of where these souls have gone... So we are sober, saddened, but blessed and peaceful. Thank you for your words. Be continually blessed in Him! Pastor Cha
