Paula Harris is truly a visionary. She has taken her heartfelt desire to draw people closer to God and His Word and developed a dynamic teaching ministry in TWM. Paula goes beyond just sharing Biblical principles; she gives practical direction in how to apply those principles in one's daily walk. Those who hear her speak leave with a renewed spirit of purpose and direction within God's will.
 Greetings,
From the end of the earth I will cry to You,
When my heart is overwhelmed;
Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. (Psalm 61:2 NKJV)
My name is Paula Harris and I am the founder and Director of Transformed Worldwide Ministries, formally known as Transformed Women's Ministries. Previously, my thoughts of happiness and success were dictated by the world in which I lived, but the Holy Spirit brought about a transformation by the renewing of my mind (Romans 12:1-2). As a result, I have a burden to help other women (and the ones they love) overcome the world's deception and understand God's perspective on how to live each day. He has given us everything we need to live godly (2 Peter 1:3), and I want share God's Word to help you realize what you have in Christ.
I am married to a wonderful man by the name of William. Together we team teach couples concerning relationships. I have three sons, Andre, Aaron, and Arlen. I have one daughter-in-law, Heather married to Arlen. Arlen and Heather have blessed us with three grandchildren that are a delight: Caeli, Arlen, Jr., and Ayden.
By the grace of God, I have been called and equipped to proclaim His Word. I thank Him for the privilege to travel and share with others. I have led church, community, corporate, and prison Bible studies. One thing is certain, wherever and whenever, I enjoy encouraging and equipping others in their search for truth from the Word of God. "But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us." (2 Corinthians 4:7 KJV)
First and foremost, I received Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior after hearing the Gospel message shared with me one summer during my teenage years. I am a graduate of Lancaster Bible College and have received my Bachelor of Science in Bible; am a graduate of Peirce College; am a certified C.L.A.S.S. speaker; am a member of the American Association of Christian Counselors; am certified by Evangelism Explosion; have taught Sunday School for over 18 years, and currently teach two community Bible studies. Yet, I understand what Zerubbabel understood in Zechariah 4:6 NIV - "Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord Almighty."
I love music and will share in song when opportunities are given. I enjoy studying and teaching God's Word. I have a deep love and compassion for people and can see beyond their weaknesses to help them make the most of their strengths. I love the beauty of creation, but I will always purpose to focus upon the Creator.
In March of 1985, I began teaching a one-day seminar entitled, "Transformed." Today, I travel and teach a variety of lessons wherever God sends me. I have taught at Sandy Cove Conference Center, The National Christian Conference Center, in Chester County Prison, in the workplace, in a variety of churches and in the community. I have traveled throughout Pennsylvania and a variety of other states, including the island of St. Thomas for a women's conference. God's grace and mercy has covered me.
"For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, that no flesh should glory in His presence. But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God-and righteousness and sanctification and redemption- that, as it is written, "He who glories, let him glory in the LORD." (1 Corinthians 1:26-31 NKJV)
Thank you for your interest in our ministry. A prayer of mine is that my life, and the lives of our staff, will be instrumental in leading you to the rock that is higher than I.
