Staff Writer
I am passionate about spreading the truth of Scripture. For decades, I served in various women’s ministry roles (including teaching at Corban University for ten years) until chronic pain dramatically changed my life. My background as a Bible teacher, retreat speaker, worship leader, editor, and writer has prepared me for my current focus on writing and providing one-on-one encouragement. My husband Mike and I have two adult daughters and five precious grandchildren who live just five minutes away—a gift beyond description! I am the author of Honest Hope.
The journey of chronic illness, mental illness, and chronic pain is unpredictable, but waiting is certain. Here are her three principles for moving forward and waiting with an open heart: Do the day in front of you. Let go of time frames and expectations. Pace yourself.
Perseverance and surrender may seem contradictory, but I believe they are inseparable. The ability to persevere demands a willingness to let go, trusting in God’s plans rather than my own.
Listening to what matters most entails filtering our thoughts and emotions through the truth of scripture: reading, hearing, and speaking it.
