My passion is to inspire and equip Christian women to fall in love with God’s Word. I teach creative ways to develop the life-giving habit of daily Bible reading, which expands understanding and deepens our relationship with God.
For years, I struggled to find a practical rhythm that would allow me to study God’s Word regularly and not rely only on weekly sermons or live off the interpretations of others. I longed to hear from God directly. Even though I had read the Bible since I was little, I had not done so in a systematic way that would help me maintain consistency.
Those who are born and raised in the church, as I was, and those who have been believers for many years risk becoming too familiar with God’s Word because we have heard hundreds of sermons and teachings. Unfortunately, familiarity can lead to indifference, coldness, unhappiness, and possible separation from God. Being busy with church activities does not equate to a healthy and dynamic relationship with God.
For many years, I lived a busy life: working full time, raising a family, managing a home, working alongside my husband running our businesses, and, years later, homeschooling my two daughters, which I did for ten years until they graduated high school. Both entered college at sixteen and earned their bachelor’s degree at nineteen.
Exhaustion, worry, various types of losses, fear of the unknown, and daily stress took a toll on my physical, emotional, and spiritual health. I never seemed to be able to find time for myself and God. Sometimes, I felt alone, insecure, unhappy, and distant from my heavenly Father.
Something had to change.
One Wednesday night, on October 23, as my family retired to bed, I sensed a strong urge to pray. My prayer time with the Lord was out of this world. It was a sublime moment that some call an “Upper Room” experience. It happened there on my cozy living room sofa in the stillness of that serene night. It was a special appointment with God that marked my life forever.
As a result, God impressed me deeply that it was time to challenge myself to read the Bible completely the following year, which would begin in about two months. I had tried before but had not succeeded.
January came and went as quickly as it came. I did not meet the start date I had set for January 1st. I felt guilty, like a failure. I had failed God and myself. But the Holy Spirit kept prompting me to begin my annual Bible reading plan. I did, albeit thirty-five days late. But I caught up. And my life was never the same. It was the year 2020. No devotionals, just the Bible, the raw Word of God, allowing the Author to tell His story. By “coincidence,” I discovered the secret to a fascinating engagement with God’s Word.
After years of struggling, I found a powerful system that works and is exciting enough to make me look forward to my daily appointment with God and His Word.
My new approach is based on:
- Selecting an annual reading plan in advance,
- Approaching the Bible to know God by letting the Author tell His story, and
- Reading the Bible with a first-century Hebraic perspective.
The result: I fell in love with God’s Word.
After years of walking with God, I feel whole.
I believe God allows each of his children to follow unique paths until we arrive at: “The Lord is my Shepherd. I. Lack. Nothing.”
It took me years to find this simple and effective rhythm for enjoying my daily Bible reading. In the process, I gained a greater understanding of the revelation already written. I call this experience a “Personal Revival.”
There is no reason it should take you so long. You just need to learn a new way to approach the Bible. And this is what I love to teach.
In my workshops and seminars, I share fundamental aspects of the Bible that lead to an exciting spiritual rebirth that will last a lifetime.
Once you taste the richness of God’s Word, you will never be the same. I guarantee it!
