Speakers: Linda & Jen Barrick
Hope Out Loud mother/daughter duo will be the speakers for Blessed Girl 2019. God is using the Barrick family to inspire and give hope to hurting people all over the United States and internationally as they share their miraculous story of God’s faithfulness and healing in the midst of tragedy.
On November 5, 2006, while driving home from church, the Barrick family was struck head-on by a drunk driver going 80 miles per hour. Andy, Linda, 15 year old Jen and 11 year old Josh sustained life-threatening injuries. Jen was not expected to live through the night, but God miraculously intervened. She was in a coma for 5 weeks and had severe traumatic brain injuries and multiple skull fractures.
The process of emerging from the coma took weeks and the doctors warned that Jen would be cursing and screaming in confusion. Instead, she was praying out loud and singing praise songs continuously.This teenager, who was once a quiet, deep-thinker, is now expressing her passion for God out loud to everyone she meets.
Jen has written a new devotional book "Priceless" for teen girls to encourage them to put their identity in God and accept His love for them. At age 24, God has given her a new platform to share Christ and using her in ways she never dreamed possible.
Linda Barrick, author of Miracle for Jen, is an inspirational speaker with a captivating message of hope. Linda leads a weekly Bible study of over 550 women at Thomas Road Baptist Church in Lynchburg, Va, where she lives with her husband Andy of 27 years and their two children Jennifer and Joshua. Their lives were dramatically changed 9 years ago when a drunk driving struck their family van head on, nearly killing them all.
The Barrick family currently lives in Lynchburg, Virginia and ministers together as a family with Hope Out Loud. Their passion is to help people who are broken and hurting find hope and healing in the truth in God's Word.

When Jesus said, ‘out of you will flow streams of living water,’ He made Jennifer a sparkling brook, filled to overflowing with His effervescent joy. Her life is such a stream of soul-satisfying encouragement to all those she meets, and I am pleased to call her my friend. To spend time with Jennifer and her family is to come away truly refreshed and inspired.
