Welcome to my little corner of the world! I’ve been blogging since before these Gen Z babies could say, “Tik Tok,” and I’m still here trying to do the three things I know and love: teach people how to study the Bible, help couples build strong marriages, and equip parents so they can cultivate healthy, Christ-centered families.

Speaking

With over 20 years of teaching and speaking experience, I love gathering with small and large groups. Whether it’s a Bible study, a women’s retreat, a marriage conference, a parenting workshop, or a podcast interview, I’d love to play a small part in what God is doing with you and your people.
