Welcome!
If you’re looking for fresh thoughts on church & culture and spiritual growth, and also Christian parenting, you’re in the right place.
I started this blog in June of 2013 to articulate what I’m learning about life and God and his people. More and more, I’m focusing on what theologians call the imago Dei.
Given today’s confusion about personal identity, Christians must proclaim this core truth more boldly than ever before—that human beings are created in the image of God. He made us, he loves us, and he alone can rescue us from sin and its effects.
For more on human identity and purpose, subscribe to my newsletter and you’ll receive a free eBook called “Reclaiming Human Identity.” Enjoy!
Some Background
I earned my B.A. in Social Science at Bethany Bible College (later Bethany University). I met my husband Scott while working at Mount Hermon Christian Conference Center. We’ve been married for 35 years and have three married sons and six grandchildren (so far).
After home schooling our sons, I spent ten years helping women and couples distressed by unplanned pregnancies at my local pregnancy help center.
I’m a Board Certified Biblical Counselor with the Board of Christian Professional and Pastoral Counselors, and I hope to begin working on a graduate degree in Theological Studies soon.
Books and Speaking
My latest book is Releasing Your Brave Love: Helping Kids to Change Their World., This devotional for 8-12 year-olds and their parents teaches kids to see themselves and others as God’s valuable image-bearers.
My first book, Unleashing Your Courageous Compassion: 40 Reflections on Rescuing the Unborn, is an educational devotional about why pro-life ministry is so vital. (I’m on the blogging team for Heartbeat International –just put my name in their search bar to find my posts.)
I teach an online course called Passionate Parenting: How to Raise Wholehearted Followers of Jesus, You’ll gain the building blocks and tools you need to build a strong family fortress where you can train and release world-changers for Jesus. (Check out the FREE mini-course to get a feel for the full 8-session course.)
I’m also available for other speaking venues. For more info see my “Speaking” page.
I hope this shot of all Nana’s darlings makes you smile today. Blessings! ♥
