When Donnella Cranford walks into the room you will know she has arrived…not because she is loud vocally; but she is bold in her movements, her presence, her fashions and her assurance in God.

Donnella is a life-long educator, the visionary and founder of Women After God’s Own Heart, a nonprofit organization she founded and has led for over twenty years. She is also the author of Encouraging Your Heart: 15 Ways to See, Hear and Know God Better. Her book was birthed from her own personal experiences and lessons she has shared with other women over the years. She says, “those lessons came as a result of being present and learning more about myself and my true identity in Christ during a time I was truly coming into my own.”
