edit data

I'm a mom and writer and have been involved in children’s ministry for most of my life, including working as director of children’s ministry for more than a decade. I live with my husband and three boys in Alberta, Canada.

I have been a family discipleship coach to many parents who need equipping, support, and encouragement. I deeply believe that every Christian parent can confidently nurture deep faith in their kids through little habits that add up over time.

My devotionals and children’s books help parents cultivate faith-filled moments. I'm all about making family faith fun and simple so that your kids love it, and you can feel confident that you're nurturing deep faith roots in your family.
