About
G.L.A.M. began in 2005, when the founder, Amanda Sekulow, recognized her passion for mentoring and God’s calling on her life. The mission is simple: Proverbs 31. Share the love of Christ and live everyday of life as an example to those around you. G.L.A.M. stands for Godly Leadership Advancement through Mentoring. As an organization, we are dedicated to encouraging success in young women through the growth of healthy, spiritually-based, mentoring relationships.
Listen to our Podcast: "What is G.L.A.M.?"
Since it’s conception, G.L.A.M. has been devoted to encouraging women of all ages to become involved in mentoring relationships. Drawing from scripture and the personal experiences of Amanda and those around her, the G.L.A.M. team is on a mission to show women everywhere that it is not about how you look, where you are from, or what you’ve done. Being GLAMorous is learning to be a Godly woman, an able leader, and a success in God’s eyes; and then living that example for one another.
