Have you ever been on a boat in the middle of the ocean? Did you ever find yourself clutching the boat when the winds began to blow, and the waves began to toss the boat up and down, to and fro? In those moments, when it feels like the boat might tip over any second, there's something holding it fast: the anchor. And in our next installment of our Faith in the Firestorm series, renowned speaker, author, and Women of Faith alum Thelma Wells reminds us that no matter what comes our way, our faith is the anchor that will keep us rooted and strong. Thelma is 85 years young, and decade after decade, Thelma's done the hard work of breaking new ground: in the 1960s, she was the first Black woman hired at John Deere (though she was hired as a secretary, she was relegated at first to the mailroom), and in the 80s she went on to become a VP at NorthPark National Bank in Dallas, where she wrote the first book on banking operations in the state of Texas. Thelma has walked in faith every step of the way, inspiring generations of women to remember that through faith, we can be and do anything.
