I grew up on the hard wooden pew of the Alder Grove United Methodist Church in rural Craig, Nebraska. I like to say I’m a farm kid from Nebraska, and although the “kid” part of me was YEARS ago, my farm roots run deep in my soul. It’s always been a challenge for me to describe myself. I’m a mom of three grown kids and grandma to one teenage girl and five grandbaby dogs. My husband of almost 40 years and I live in an old log home in a hollow outside of Clarksville, TN. I’m a business owner of a service industry company, a Christian speaker and encourager, a lover of chocolate, coffee, and a good story. I love to laugh, hug my kids, and ride my bicycle (don’t get the idea that I’m athletic… my bicycle is electric).

My passion is to start conversations that lead people to a forever relationship with Jesus and grow God’s kingdom. I believe many people desperately want a relationship with Jesus, but they have been either hurt by external circumstances beyond their control, life in general, or, unfortunately, other “Christians” or churches. Living to hear six is a means to start a conversation about Jesus and get people back on the road leading to PEACE and HOPE.

I want so much for my heavenly father to be proud of the work I did in this life that He has given me. When I finally meet him face to face, I hope that He tells me, “Well done good and faithful servant.” Nothing could be better than that!

I’m so thankful you stopped by my website today.
