About

Dear Friend,

I’m so happy you are here!

I believe we are all theologians. What we believe about God affects how we live and I am passionate about helping women know God more deeply.

There are several ways in which we can learn more about God and His character. First, He has given us His Word; divinely inspired and accessible for us to read about His nature and rescue plan for humanity.

As human beings we are unique and set apart from other creation. Our ability to reason helps us to pursue truth and seek out wisdom and be discerning. But, there is a lot of noise out there. What we spend our time thinking about and focusing on matters.

We also learn about God through His creation. There is much goodness and beauty in nature, art, and  that gives us glimpses into who God is. Spending time thinking about such things helps us to keep our minds and hearts looking toward the truly Wonder-ful.

OK, so what can I tell you about myself? Basically, I’m a peacemaker, an encourager, and a work in progress. I love digging into, studying and teaching the Word and sharing what I learn with others.

Also, I love personality tests.  My Love Language is words of affirmation and my top spiritual gift is exhortation. So, I’m pretty much a words girl; I like to use them to encourage, empower and exhort.

I’m also a bit of a nerd and have master’s degrees in Psychology, Biblical Exposition and Theological Studies. What can I say I like learning ?

Things I love- thoughtfulness, a cold can of coke, mint chocolate, and my family—I have one seriously awesome husband, four (mostly) delightful children, and a mischievous (but adorable)little dog named Dax .

I also love seeing people grow and I know that change can be hard but made a little easier when we have someone walking with us. That’s why I spent over 10 years as a life coach. But after many years in the coaching field, I felt like something was missing. I loved coaching but believe self-help will only get you so far, what we really need for life transformation is God-help.

So, these days I’m more of a Bible coach as I love learning and equipping other with the tools I’ve found to be most helpful. I do that by leading Bible studies, classes, and workshops.

My goal is equipping everyday theologians to know the Word, pursue Wisdom and live with Wonder.

The Bible tells us that we are to think about,

whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Philippians 4:8

The world is loud and often leads us to think about what is untrue, scary, wrong. I want to share things that are true, lovely and good in this small online space. I hope you’ll join me.

Most of all, I’m grateful you’re here. And I’m looking forward to connecting with you. I would love to hear more about your story. Shoot me an email at [email protected] and tell me a bit about yourself.

P.S. You probably want to ask about my name. Good question! My mom made it up. It’s a combination of the first letters of my parents and grandparents’ names. As a kid, it was tough having a unique name. As an adult, I’ve really embraced the fact that my name is made up from pieces of people I love. And I have a special affinity for “Z” names. If you have one, you must be super awesome.
