Aligned: A Gathering for Women Seeking Jesus Over Alcohol | 2026 Conference Announcement | Sherry Hoppen
Looking for a Christian sobriety conference for women seeking Jesus over alcohol? The Aligned Conference 2026 is a faith-based gathering designed to help women break free from alcohol, grow closer to Jesus, and experience real, in-person community.
This is what happens when two women, passionate about Jesus and freedom from alcohol, stop waiting… and start gathering.
In this special episode of Love Life Sober, Christy is joined by Sherry Hoppen of She Surrenders to officially announce the Aligned Conference, happening September 22–24, 2026 in Holland, Michigan.
This episode is an invitation.
For the woman who loves Jesus but still feels stuck in the cycle with alcohol.
For the woman who has been craving deeper connection—not just online, but in real life.
For the woman who knows she’s called to more, but isn’t quite sure what that looks like yet.
Aligned was created for exactly this.
A space to step away from alcohol.
A space to step closer to Jesus.
A space to be known, supported, and reminded that you are not alone in this journey.
Whether you’re brand new, years alcohol-free, or somewhere in the middle… you belong in this room.
If you’ve ever thought…
“I love Jesus, but I still feel stuck in this cycle with alcohol.”
“I wish I could find women who actually get this.”
“I feel called to something more… but I don’t know what that looks like yet.”
This episode is for you.
