I grew up in church.

​

I knew Jesus, but I didn’t know His word.

 

My growing up years found me searching for a sense of belonging and acceptance that always seemed to elude me. That search took me down paths that left me emptier than when I started.

​

It was when I began my relationship with the Word of God that my life finally began to change. I went from stagnated in my spiritual growth to growing like Virginia Creeper on a retaining wall.

 

God knew the spiritual gift He wanted to give me (teaching), and so, while I learned, I couldn’t help but share with others. My life was being transformed through the washing of the word in my heart and mind, and I wanted others to experience it too.

 

As I explored God’s word from Genesis to Revelation, I began to put people, places, and things together. When I came across Revelation 19:7-8, I was compelled to excavate the word. I developed a teaching (because I had to share what I learned), stepped out of my comfort zone, and signed up to lead a small group at church. Then, I wrote my first Bible study, Fitted for Grace.

 

During this time, my husband and I were avid short-term missions trip participants. We joined some groups from our church and a global church leader equipping ministry. I began teaching and preaching all the amazing things God taught me from His word, and my speaking ministry was born.​

 

From 2001 until now, my compelling mission is to see God’s children grow spiritually by developing a relationship with His word. When His children love Jesus AND the Word, they can begin to walk in the fullness of their callings in faith, not performance or ritual.
