Janet Thompson is the founder and Visionary Director of About His Work Ministries, also known as AHW Ministries, and a prolific author and speaker on topics relevant to today's Christian women. About His Work Ministries evolved from a time when Janet quit her secular career to go into full-time lay ministry starting the Woman to Woman Mentoring Ministry at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, California and her husband Dave subsequently was laid off from his job. When people asked what Janet was doing for work Dave would reply, "She is about the Lord's work." Today About His Work Ministries encompasses Janet's writing and speaking ministry. In spite of a number of trials and tribulations, which provide depth and insight to her writing and speaking and continually grow her faith, God has been faithful to keep Janet "About His Work."
The Woman To Woman Mentoring Ministry, founded at Saddleback Church in 1996, allows women to experience the blessings of participating in one-on-one encouraging and supporting spiritual friendships. In order to share the Saddleback Church Mentoring Ministry with other churches, Janet wrote the Leader DVD Kit, Woman To Woman Mentoring: How To Start, Grow, And Maintain A Mentoring Ministry (LifeWay Press). As churches use these resources to start mentoring ministries, thousands of women around the world commit to walk beside each other in mentoring relationships.
