Faith and Family
In addition to ministering to women of all ages, I have a heart for helping moms and daughters develop deeper relationships with each other and with God. Our teen daughter, Bekah, shares this passion. Together, we wrote a mother-daughter devotional book called Girl to Girl: 60 Mother-Daughter Devotions for a Closer Relationship and Deeper Faith.
This book will make a life-changing impact on the moms and daughters in your life and makes a great gift. It’s written specifically for girls ages 10-15, but it’s relevant for moms and daughters of all ages.
Each devotion includes Scripture, a reflection from me, a commentary from Bekah, discussion questions, and even a journaling section. Get yours on Amazon right here today! 
Join Our Family on a Cross-Country Camping Road Trip
Before you get the idea that all we do around here is write books, we have an invitation for you! Have you ever wondered what it would be like to set out on a cross-country road trip and go camping in the wilderness with your family? 11 Days on the Road chronicles our family’s road trip from the East Coast to the Rockies.
This eBook will entertain you, draw you into a different world, and give you a glimpse into the highs and lows of a family road trip. Additionally, you will be challenged to consider the dreams you’ve set aside out of fear of leaving your comfort zone. You will explore nine mindsets to embrace for a more joyful, purposeful, faith-filled life, including embracing change, stepping into the unknown, and embracing your limits.
