Have you been broken by loss, grief, or abuse? Maybe you've felt outcast and lonely.

I've been there too, and I'm wondering what it looks like to live beautifully broken and more than mended.

Come join me on this journey!

Duty, Desire, and Delight

I jump out of bed eagerly anticipating the day. It is early and my only day off in a six-day workweek filled with the obligation of my job. Today is Sunday, and I can choose between duty and desire. Today I am not governed by the clock. Today I can read for as long as I want the books that beckon for space in my spare margins. And today there is time to pour out words like water from my soul.

Teach Us to Number Our Days

Teach us to number our days….The old King James translation still echoes in my mind when I think of this verse. As a teenager, I thought this verse meant we were not to waste a single minute of our day. We were to be as productive as possible with every single day, every single hour, and every single minute.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of Mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God ~ 2 Corinthians 1:4

About Me

I’m back! I’m writing, blogging, and speaking again after a long season of growth and healing. It has taken me a long time to see that God’s beautiful, redemptive work is most often seen in brokenness, so I’m wondering what it looks like to be beautifully broken and to live more than mended.  Join me here as I write for the grieving, the broken, the outcast (LBGTQ Christian parents and adult children), the lonely, and the abused and how I have found joy and peace in all of these hard places.

 

 

My Journey With Justin

This book is my story – the first chapter in a lifelong journey of faith. Perhaps parts of my story may mirror yours. It is my prayer that as you read how God used hardships to heal my heart, you too may begin to experience God’s healing and peace – even in the midst of your present pain.

From the back cover

This is the touching true story of a young mother whose five year old son is suddenly left severely brain damaged as a result of unintended but devastating complications of open-heart surgery. Follow her journey of faith from heartbreak and hardship to happiness and healing as God uses the handicaps of her son to open her eyes to the handicaps hidden in her own heart.

Thank You

I would like to thank everyone who has encouraged and supported me as I return to writing and blogging. I would also like to thank all of those who helped make a new laptop a reality.

And a very special thanks to my son, Jerrod! Without his help and support, this website would not be possible!
