Biography
We all long to be confident and know where our worth is found. To satisfy this longing, we look to people’s opinions, a new romance, or our own successes, and yet, we still find ourselves insecure and discontent. We find ourselves in this place because if our confidence is in these things, then when they let us down, our confidence goes down with them. When people don’t like us, there goes our confidence. When the romance disappoints, our contentment fades. When we fail, our stability is shaken.
As the Founder of Compelled Ministries, Emma Mae is an author, speaker and podcast host who is living on a mission to lead and encourage this generation to grow in a genuine relationship with Jesus and live compelled by His love. Traveling to speak God's Word excites her to the core and she stewards her social media platform to reach and encourage people all over the globe. The "Have You Heard?" podcast, with over 5 million listens, releases an episode weekly where Emma Mae creates a space to help people hear God's Word and grow in their faith. Her books, "Be Loved", "All-Caps You", and "You Are", were written with the purpose of equipping young women to live the life they were made for through genuinely knowing the God who made them.
Through experiencing intense bullying and immense praise, she has found that what God says of her is what keeps her steady when the opinions of people are unsteady. Even though it has attracted mockery from many, she has learned to be unashamed of the joy of the Lord because she knows it is the Spirit of God within her. She has found that whatever her circumstance, she can be content because joy is found in the presence of God - not in a certain circumstance. From personally experiencing life-change through knowing God, she is passionate about seeing others experience this life-change too.

Identity
We are all seeking to have confidence about who we are and clarity about what we were made for, but so many of us are living insecure and confused. This isn’t because we are looking for the wrong things, but because we are looking for them in the wrong places. The only way we can know who we are and what we were made to do is by personally knowing the One who made us. Emma Mae passionately and empathetically equips people with the truth of who they are by pointing them to the God who made them.
Approval
Living for The Approval of God vs. The Approval of People
When the opinions of people are the guide by which we live our lives, we are setting ourselves up for exhaustion and regret. Living for the approval of the Lord, on the other hand, ignites our hearts with joy and guards our minds in peace. After being cyber bullied for years because of her faith, Emma Mae speaks about how to walk in freedom from being crippled by fear of what people think.
Joy
Praising God and Being Content Even in Hard Times
There’s no way we can dodge the difficulties and hardships that life brings, but there is a way we can be filled with joy even when those trials come our way. Some might think joy is naive or simply a feeling that cannot remain when sorrows come, but Scripture says that joy is strong and that it is in the presence of the Lord we find the fullness of joy. Emma Mae comes alongside people to help them experience the joy of the Lord in their everyday lives no matter what they may walk through.
