From Bitter to Better

From Bitter to Better FB2B is a freedom experience for women who feel bound by the hurts and disappointments of the past.

From Bitter to Better was born in January 2019 at United Family Worship Center, Hampton, VA. It was a vision given to the former Co-Pastor, Elder Brenda Stokes, to address what she
witnessed among sisters who truly loved the Lord, but were yet bound by the hurts and
disappointments of their pasts. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the Lord impressed upon Elder Stokes to take this FREEDOM experience be

yond the local church in the form of a women’s conference. With the very capable and willing support of her three daughters and 3 of her granddaughters, From Bitter to Better Women’s Conference was launched as a Non-Profit, with the first conference scheduled for March of 2023.

📚 And that’s a wrap on our first FB2B Women’s Virtual Book Club! 💛

For the past six weeks, we’ve journeyed through Abigail: Living with the Difficult People in Your Life—studying her story in 1 Samuel 25 and having some honest, thoughtful conversations about navigating difficult people and circumstances with biblical wisdom.

From learning to defuse difficult situations, to trusting God to be the Judge, to our final reminder that God can use even the hard things in our lives to make us more like Jesus—there was so much to take away from this study.

A huge THANK YOU to every woman who logged on, read along, shared her perspective, asked questions, laughed with us, and helped make this such a meaningful six weeks. We’re grateful for the community that formed on these little Zoom squares. 🥹

The book may be closed, but we pray the lessons continue to show up in how we live, love, and respond to the people around us.

From bitter to better, one lesson at a time. 💛🌿

We’re still reflecting on all that took place during Fathering Daughters. So many powerful moments, meaningful conversations, and memories were made. Here’s another look at a weekend that continues to stay with us. 💚

This time, we’re highlighting the incredible artists who helped bring the message to life through creativity, storytelling, and truth. Their gifts added depth, inspiration, and moments that won’t be forgotten.

From the FB2B Board of Directors — thank you. 💚

What took place during Fathering Daughters was more than a conference. It was a weekend filled with connection, reflection, and moments that will stay with us for a long time.

Fathers and daughters showed up, leaned in, and created space for something meaningful.

Here’s a glimpse of the weekend as we begin sharing more.
