Hello!
My passion is to encourage women to root deep faith in God so they flourish in life and have hope through the hard.
Each message is filled with scripture, stories and illustrations and specifically crafted to inspire women to live faith-filled.
- As a Bible teacher actively serving women in my local church, I get the needs, struggles and difficulties women are facing.
- That’s why my heart’s desire is for women to know the hope of Christ, to hunger deeply for God and to delight in His Word.
- I speak to a wide variety of groups including women’s events in church or on retreat; mom groups; youth and schools; and homechooling events.
I’m happy to tailor messages for your event or retreat theme. I’ve also threaded my testimony and a faith-inspiring message around many key verses such as Lamentations 3:22-23 and Psalm 18. You can read more about my story here.
RETREAT TOPICS
*each retreat theme can be used for 2 – 4 sessions.
She Believes
Most people see to believe but believers are called to the opposite. God calls us to believe to see. In this walk through Psalm 27, we’ll fix and refocus our gaze in all new ways so we can live courageously faithful.
It is Well
What happens when life gives us unexpected and unwanted chapters? When our world is rocked, we can find Jesus our Rock. We’ll learn not simply to survive where God has us, but to thrive in every chapter as well.
FearLESS and FaithFULL
The Proverbs 31 woman laughs at the days to come? She must not know what I know! Discover scriptural keys to crush our fear, walk in joy and fan our faith.
SINGLE EVENT TOPICS
Held
“No weapon that is formed against you will prosper…” (Is 54:17) Encouragement and truth to prevail in every circumstance.
Live Where You Are | Love Where You Are
When life dishes up unexpected or unwanted circumstances, can we still experience real joy? Yes. Based on truths in the book of Ruth, we can learn to not only live where we are, but love where we are.
Abide
Who is like our God? When we begin to grasp even the fringes of God’s wonder and majesty, it changes everything about how we live and how we abide. A look at God in Psalm 91.
She Laughs
How can the Proverbs 31 woman laugh at the future? Does she read the same news I do? Does she even know what could happen to her children? Her finances? Her health? When we apply three steps from 2 Corinthians, we too can learn to not only rest and trust, but smile at the future.
