Connally Gilliam

After 20 years in the DC area, Connally Gilliam has relocated back to her home town, Charlottesville, VA.  Connally holds both a BA and MT in English from the University of Virginia (also in Charlottesville) and her MA in Theological Studies from Regent College (Vancouver, BC), where she also serves on the Board of Governors.

Serving locally, nationally, and internationally with the US Navigators, through her speaking, writing and mentoring, Connally brings the warm, strong, and revelatory light of Jesus Christ -- often through the confusing questions surrounding singleness, sexuality, gender, loss and race -- to the hearts and minds of women and men.

As the author of “Revelations of a Single Woman: loving the life I didn’t expect” (Tyndale, 2006), and co-author, with Paula Rinehart of “And Yet, Undaunted: Embraced by the Goodness of God in the Chaos of Life” (NavPress, 2019), Connally's continued journey around many unexpected curves has deepened the authentic faith which she joyfully offers to others.
