Why, you ask?

Because I had someone who walked alongside me to encourage me to carve out space daily to spend time in Jesus’ presence. She showed me that spending time in the presence of Jesus prepares us to stand firm in life’s storms.

As I spent time with Jesus, reading Scripture and praying, I found myself growing in His presence. My faith in Him and my relationship with Him grew as I began to experience His presence more deeply in my life. And when the storms of life rolled my way, I was better prepared to walk through them with Jesus.

My passion is to help you experience the Lord’s deep love for you and for you to grow in His presence as well. I want to help you find time to connect with Jesus by providing practical tools that fit into the daily rhythm of your life.

Why I Write

Writing was never on my radar. But then I went on a mission trip to South Africa, and I began to sense Jesus calling me to share what He was teaching me. And so this journey began.

I found myself growing and changing as I spent time in the presence of Jesus. He was transforming me as I spent time in His Word. I experienced such joy and peace. I wanted others to experience Him as I did.

After my 2nd cancer journey and kidney transplant, I wrote my first book, Reclaiming Christmas Joy: 25 Days of Refreshment with Jesus. This book was a labor of love. My personal act of worship proclaiming Him to others. It’s a book I hope encourages others to make space in their busy lives to connect with Jesus during Christmas so they can reclaim the joy He promises.

Now, I’m focused on providing you tools to grow in His presence and strengthen your faith so you are prepared to stand firm in life’s storms.
