Inspirational speaker Paula White to bring message of hope and faith

She has been called "Dr. Phil Meets Mother Teresa." She has graced the covers of major magazines, been featured in the international media, and had audiences with numerous world leaders and policy makers. Ebony magazine said of her, "You know you're on to something new and significant when the most popular woman preacher on the Black Entertainment Network is a white woman."

She's author and inspirational speaker Paula White, and on Fri. and Sat., Sept. 15 and 16, she'll bring her message of hope, faith, and promise to the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles.

"Paula White's upbeat style, her plain-spoken wisdom, and her insight into the shared needs of all people transcend ethnic, racial, religious, and socio-economic lines," said Paul Crouch Jr., vice president of Trinity Broadcasting Network, which has hosted White's daily television program since its inception.

White is not shy that she has shared in many of the life struggles faced by her fans, including the suicide of a parent, physical and sexual abuse, and teen pregnancy.

But at 18 she became a committed Christian, a choice she said was pivotal to her success. "That one decision made the difference in how I viewed myself, my past, my future, and those around me," she said. "And it wasn't long before I realized that what changed my life could be the catalyst to change others as well. That's the core of my message."

White co-pastors the 22,000member Without Walls International Church in Tampa, Fla. with her husband, and spearheads a worldwide humanitarian program that has become a model for others.
