The Miller Clan
Ben, Ayden, Bryan, Sally & Emily
The Miller family lives in a white house with a blue door that nests beside a park with a pond. In the summer, they eat dinner out on the front porch. They love to laugh, can be loud and tend to fight over the hammock in their yard. The Millers love their dog, Sammy, and the puppies they raise for Canine Companions for Independence.
If you're interested in raising a puppy that will grow up to be a service dog, check out their favorite charity: http://www.caninecompanions.org/.

SPEAKER INFORMATION
GIRL TALK WITH SALLY MILLER
If you’re looking for honest, hilarious, heart-warming girl talk for your next women’s gathering; consider inviting award-winning author and speaker, Sally Miller. Sally is passionate about sharing her stories of faith & friendship with other women. She believes that,"As we walk together, quilt, study, dance, talk on the phone, sing, paint, drink coffee, laugh, do laundry and take in sunsets, we can discover that all of life is prayer."
KEYNOTING AND RETREATS FOR WOMEN
GIRL TALK . . . GOD TALK: What Your Friends Can Teach You About Prayer
Be encouraged to see prayer as an intimate, imaginative conversation instead of dull, dark, drudgery. Discover innovative, practical ways to bring joy into your prayer life based on seeing conversations with God through the lens of friendship.
SOUL SISTERS: The Art of Growing Spiritual Friends
In a conference based on the colorful and creative book Sally co-authored with friend and fellow writer, Cheri Mueller; realize the surprising ways everyday friendship is deeply holy. Through stories, a Friendship Quiz, and other somewhat crazy activities, learn how to grow more deeply in your relationships with other women and with Christ. (This topic works particularly well for community-building retreats!)
OTHER POPULAR TOPICS
Sally has a variety of other speaker offerings available. Including A FRESH ENCOUNTER WITH GOD'S WORD, an offering using our friendships to demystify and personalize the reading of scripture (popular for luncheons, evening events or weekend retreats).
MOPS and other mom’s gatherings enjoy Sally’s 1 hour seminars. One is titled, ADOPTION: Enlarging Hearts & Homes. (Sally’s material may be adapted to meet the unique needs of your group, too!)
If your bookclub uses one of Sally's books, and you've collected questions and comments for her; she also offers GIRL TALK with the Author (over the phone for long distance groups or in person if your group meets in the Chicagoland area).
BOOK NOTES
Sally has written a handful of inspirational books for women. Currently she's completing a piece of creative nonfiction titled GOD'S GIRLS: Women Who've Experienced Divine Love & How You Can, Too; and beginning work on a piece of fiction titled, FAITH WILL BRING YOU LOVE.
She has also written THE BIBLE IS A GIRL'S BEST FRIEND: Experiencing a Fresh Encounter with God's Word (Harvest House, 2007), and GIRL TALK . . . GOD TALK: What Your Friends Can Teach You About Prayer (Harvest House, 2006).
Sally, along with long time friend, Cheri Mueller, authored a duet of books including, WALK WITH ME: Two Friends On A Spiritual Journey (FaithWalk 2005), winner of the Writers in the Spirit award, and PLAY WITH ME: Two Friends on a Spiritual Journey with Kids (FaithWalk 2006).
Sally’s poetry and prose, as well as a seasonal column, have been featured in various magazines including TODAY‘S Christian Woman. She has also been the guest of radio broadcasts such as Midday Connection.
In all of her writings, and speaking engagements, Sally is inspired by the fact that Jesus and his twelve, stinky fishermen friends probably spent more time at the beach than they did at the synagogue, more time in the homes of friends than at an altar.
TESTIMONIALS
Sally’s stories are lovely, touching and so connecting. Through the girlfriend stories she made me think of the girlfriends I have who pray for me on days I need it badly and on ordinary days.
- Connie Anderson, CASI Publishing
Sally Miller does a very nice job of mixing the value of girlfriends and your prayer life together.
-Armchair Reviews
The energy in this narrative of a friendship is contagious! As Miller and Mueller tell their stories and their story the writing shimmers with the individuality of each and the companionship of each other. This is a relationship well-earned and chronicled with love.
-Luci Shaw, Author
Starbucks-drinking, Levi-wearing, word-loving, munchkin-rearing, artsy-fartsy, faith-filled friends is how the authors describe themselves in the introduction to Walk with Me: Two Friends on a Spiritual Journey. In their guileless prose, they prove that it is possible to be both deeply religious and totally approachable.
- Katie Klein, ForeWord Magazine
