Someone asked me the other day, “Why do you do what you do?”

What a great question. My answer – I write, teach, and reach out to women to help them TRULY UNDERSTAND that Christ is a REDEEMER. He is a Savior, yes! But that saving is just the first step in our faith journey. He saves us SO THAT He can REDEEM us and use our lives for His glory. He is the REDEEMER of marriages, the REDEEMER of broken lives, and the REDEEMER of wasted time, wrong ambitions, and thoughtless words. His design for all of us is to save, redeem and use us for His good so that others will be drawn to Him. 

I am a devoted wife to my husband, Jarrett. I’m blessed to be called “mom” by my four beautifully unique children – ages 12 to 28! Currently we are launching our two middle kids into adulthood and our youngest is headed off to Middle School. My kids keep my world exciting. We recently moved our clan from our lifelong home in California to the great state of TEXAS! What a journey of faith THAT was! I have learned THROUGH my crazy, FULL life that I need Jesus IN ALL THINGS.

I enjoy cooking, baking, gardening, and boating. I’m constantly on the look out for my next favorite tea - iced or hot. I love doing puzzles and watching movies.

If I could tell you one thing today – it would be this: Trust Christ more than yourself; His plans for you are better and more than anything you could accomplish on your own.
