"Sadie Robertson just off the stage from Women of Faith," Arterburn shared on Facebook along with a photo.
"You can see her on 'Duck Dynasty.' You saw her in 'Dancing with the Stars' and you can read her book, Live Original. She is a real Woman of Faith."
It comes as no surprise that Robertson spoke during the Women of Faith conference since the teen model has become a role model to "Duck Dynasty" fans.
The reality star also encourages her social media followers to pursue a relationship God in both her book, Live Original: How the Duck Commander Teen Keeps It Real and Stays True to her Values and in a viral video posted to YouTube recently. In a seven-minute video posted in late March, Robertson addressed body image issues while also revealing her reliance on God for self-confidence.
"I want to see people start to live original," Robertson explained in the video, which has received over 2.5 million views. "My point is, don't look at people and say, 'That's what I want to be.' In reality, if you're seeking human approval, you're never gonna reach your goal. You can only reach it by God."
The next Women of Faith event is scheduled for July 24-25 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. To learn more, visit womenoffaith.com.
