To some she’s known as Twila Belk, but to others she’s known as the Gotta Tell Somebody Gal. She loves to talk, especially about her Lord—Almighty God. Whether she’s writing, speaking, or teaching, Twila’s desire is to offer hope and encouragement for people to get their eyes fixed on him.
As a Christian communicator, Twila’s goal is making important truths easy to understand. She enjoys laughing and promoting laughter, but even more than that, she’s passionate about helping her audiences discover who God is and how big God is and proving that he can be trusted. She has lots and lots of proof of God's faithfulness and goodness, and she just has to tell somebody!
The Power to Be: Be Still, Be Grateful, Be Strong, Be Courageous (a 2018 release) is Twila’s seventh book, and she’s contributed to several others. Her book before that, a one-year devotional, is Raindrops from Heaven: Gentle Reminders of God’s Power, Presence, and Purpose. She’s had the pleasure of speaking for retreats, banquets, outreach events, church services, women's conferences, Women’s Connection, Women's Aglow, MOPS, schools, baby showers, bridal showers, Christmas parties, Victorian teas, mother/daughter events, and even a wedding reception!
In addition to writing and speaking, Twila enjoys teaching and keynoting at writers conferences across the nation. Her mission is to do whatever she can to make God famous. That includes being a champion for others who have a message of hope and encouragement--one that points people to God.
Twila and her husband, Steve, live in Bettendorf, Iowa, not far from the Mississippi River and the home of American Pickers, John Deere tractors, and Whitey’s ice cream. She is Mom to three grown children and Grandma to three precious little boys.

Twila Belk was the guest speaker for our recent Ladies' Nite Out. She is genuine, hilarious, spiritually-motivating, and relevant. She opened our hearts' gates with laughter, the deep belly laughs that paved the way for her message to spread like salve through our innermost parts. I'd highly recommend her for any event.

I want you to be blessed by having Twila Belk come and share with your group. Twila uses humor and stories to open people up to the truths of Scripture. She will encourage yet challenge you in new and fresh ways with her insights and life-changing messages. Be prepared to laugh and even cry as the “Gotta Tell Somebody” gal comes and shares from her heart with passion. As Twila’s pastor and friend, I can say from experience that you will sense her heart for others and feel that she is your friend by the way she shares in her presentations. Her passion for the Lord and His Word is evident every time she speaks. I highly recommend Twila for your group because you will be blessed and you will be touched in your soul by her message.

The 2012 KCWC Christian Writers Conference took place June 22-23 in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. Chonda Pierce, author and comedian, was scheduled to do the keynote addresses and had to cancel due to an emergency family medical crisis. Twila Belk, already scheduled as a faculty workshop presenter, was asked the night before the conference began to fill in for Chonda as our keynote speaker. Twila's three keynote addresses were very timely and on target! The consensus of the conference was that 'she was awesome.
