Get To Know Dawn

Dawn Mann Sanders is an author, Bible teacher, and spiritual architect™ passionate about guiding people through God’s Creative Process for rebuilding their lives after devastating loss, soul-crushing disappointment, or major life transition. Her debut book, When Your World Ends: God’s Creative Process for Rebuilding a Life (InterVarsity Press, 2024), invites readers to experience God’s presence in seasons of devastation and discover His blueprint for renewal. Through her teaching, podcast (Rebuilding Your Life with Dawn Mann Sanders), and the Creative Restoration Movement™, Dawn equips people with practical rhythms and spiritual tools to remain connected to God, seize opportunities, and rebuild with purpose.

Dawn has ministered for over two decades as a teacher and associate minister at First Baptist Church of Glenarden, one of the largest congregations in Maryland. She is a graduate of Bethel Seminary (summa cum laude) and brings together her background as a data scientist with her calling as a Bible communicator to design systems, resources, and frameworks that make spiritual growth tangible and actionable.

At Speak Up 2026, Dawn will encourage attendees with her own story of restoration while equipping them with practical strategies to share their messages faithfully. She believes that when people embrace God’s blueprint for rebuilding, they don’t just survive loss—they create something new with Him.
