SONIA ADAMS
Founder, Blossoming Vines Ministries

After College, She Answered God’s Call
Sonia was called to the ministry fresh out of college at the age of 22. She lends unique insight, realness, and a relevant perspective to her ministry. She understands the plight of living in America and chasing “The American Dream,” but she deliberately laid down her ambitious, self-centered dreams of modeling and sports journalism to pastor, minister, and passionately pursue her God-given purpose.
 
Sharing Her Story to Help Others
The core of her heart is LOVE. With love, she serves and helps others. As co-pastor, she works alongside her husband who is a lead pastor. She is very transparent and real about her journey, failures, triumphs, and process of growing as a godly woman as well as being a female leader. She gives, serves, encourages, preaches, teaches, and empowers others to love Christ with a heart to serve and help others here and around the world.
 
Dynamic Bible Teacher and Author
Sonia serves as Adjunct Professor at Beulah Heights University in Atlanta, Georgia where she teaches Principles of Organization and Administration, New Testament Literature, Hermeneutics, and Life of Christ. Sonia is the founder and CEO of Blossoming Vines Ministries (BVM). Our mission is “Helping women ‘Blossom’ in their lives and extend their reach to others!"
 
In the Spring of 2005, Sonia published her first book entitled Searching to Fill the Void and is currently writing three other books. Her first book is targeted at female audiences of all cultures who face issues of longing to be loved, finding purpose and ultimate fulfillment in life. Her second booklet entitled Only A Little Distance To Success (Ephrathah) was self-published in November of 2010 and deals with letting go of the past to catch hold of your future.
