Konni was elected in 2014 to represent Tarrant County’s Senate District 10 in the Texas Senate, succeeding Democrat Wendy Davis. At the time, SD-10 was one of the most competitive districts in Texas — essentially a 50/50 seat. Konni flipped the district, returning it to Republican leadership, and went on to serve two legislative sessions in Austin.Her strong record of standing firm on conservative principles earned her 100% ratings from the National Federation of Independent Business, National Right to Life, Texans for Fiscal Responsibility, and Young Conservatives of Texas. She was also named a Taxpayer Champion by Empower Texans following both the 84th and 85th legislative sessions.A lifelong activist, Konni has been driven by a commitment to limited government, individual liberty, and free-market principles — a passion that continues to shape her work today.In 2019 — after losing the SD-10 seat during the “Beto wave” midterms — Konni chose not to step away from the public arena. Instead, she turned that moment into motivation to create The Texan, where she now serves as CEO. Determined to strengthen civic engagement and improve access to reliable political information, she built a statewide multimedia newsroom committed to fact-driven reporting.

After a diverse career in the Dallas-area public and private sectors, Debby Efurd found her true calling in ministry in 2011 by offering recovery Bible studies to the post-abortive community. Until 2013, she served as director of post-abortion support for Involved for Life (Downtown Pregnancy Center, Uptown Women’s Center and Sonograms on Site) in Dallas, Texas. Today, Debby is co-founder and president of the collective ministries of Initiative 180 and its program of abortion recovery, Peace After the Storm. Established in 2014, these ministries reach out to the largest demographic in our culture—the post-abortive community—to provide counseling and support to those suffering the emotional pain of abortion. Initiative 180 and Peace After the Storm also assist churches and communities in the development of abortion-recovery programs. A highly sought-after speaker, Debby educates others through appearances at colleges, seminaries, churches and professional organizations. She is active with various pro-life organizations and Operation Outcry. Debby graduated cum laude from Dallas Baptist University with a B. A. in Counseling. She has written numerous articles published in LifeNews, the Christian Post and the Baptist Standard, and is the author of Go Tell It! (Clovercroft—September 2015). Debby and her husband live in Duncanville, Texas, and have three married children and six grandchildren.

Lisa Luby Ryan wanted the perfect life: children who adored her and a husband that would protect, guide and love her. But things didn’t turn out that way. She had been sexually abused at a young age, lived in a chaotic home and wasn’t loved by her parents. Honesty, trust and a wholesome relationship between a man and a woman simply wasn’t Lisa’s reality. As she went through life, through relationships and men and a broken family of her own, she knew in her mind that “All I wanted was to be loved.” But God asked her the question, “How can I heal you when you’re not willing to heal yourself? Are you willing confront your secrets and give it all up to me?” Are you willing to give it all up? Are you willing to be healed? Lisa had to confess her past; a life of affairs, abortion, divorce, and neglect. She freed herself by facing the truth and God was faithful to restore the broken pieces.
