Michele Brands

Author, Speaker, Singer – Michele Brands has over 25 years of leadership experience in the church as well as the corporate board room. She is a gifted encourager and leader who helps women grow deeper in faith through her speaking, teaching, coaching and prayer ministry.

After a series of life events and hardships, Michele was counseled to “get into and stay in the Word of God.” When she did, her eyes were opened and she received a hunger and thirst for God’s Word that she had never experienced before. Everything she does is focused on moving women from routine religion to finding life-giving faith.

Founder of  Gathered in Grace Prayer Ministries and the dynamic Facebook group Women Gathered, Michele leads an online ministry taking women of all faiths through the Bible. She has written several Bible studies including, Discover Yourself in the Women of the Bible  and co-authored several Bible studies with Christian speaker and coach Deborah Lovett including Do Not Worry, Biblical Time Management Bootcamp and On Guard.

A certified integrative health coach, Michele balances her writing and speaking ministry while working as the Network Director of Women’s Imaging for a large health network in Northeast PA.

Wife to Rob and mom to Basil and Martha, Robby, Ryan, Trevor and Taylor, Michele loves hiking, biking and spending time outdoors. She is the very loved mom to Gunner the pitbull and Maggie the miniature poodle.
