Faith. Family. Fun.

I am blessed to be the wife of an amazing God-fearing man, Mike, who is an entrepreneur by trade. He is my best friend, biggest supporter and my adventure-partner! We have 3 awesome boys, Jackson, Baeron and Maddon. We love doing all kinds of activities together, from traveling, to camping, to sports, to video games and card games! We also have 3 pets: our dogs, Tatonka and Copper/Fluffy, and our cat, Tom Osborne. If you ever meet me in person, ask me about the story behind Tom Osborne's name- its hilarious!

I love early mornings and sunrises. I love reading and am an a borderline book hoarder. If I could be outside all the time, I would. I prefer mountains over the ocean, chop my own fire wood, believe that cake and ice cream should not be eaten together, and I often laugh at my own jokes- sometimes before I even get out the punchline.

A love for uncovering the richness of the text.

I didn't know that I would like being a teacher, but once I started unfolding the context of the Biblical story, I was hooked. The richness and fullness of knowing Jewish and Eastern culture, researching historical and environmental and socioeconomic facts of the time period changed everything for me. The more I learned, the more I wanted to bring these things to light to everyone who reads the Bible. It completely revolutionized and revitalized how I read and understood passages, and gave me the tools to read scripture and uncover deeper truths without having to hit up commentaries! Now it is my passion to help others do this for themselves.

This is who I am.

I am pretty much an open book. God has redeemed my past, He has given life to me where there was certain death, and He has called me into this purpose for this time. Knowing where I've been, knowing the grace I've received, there is nothing I want to do more than to use the story and the passion He's given me so that others might find freedom and experience God's unrelenting love for them. With perhaps a few jokes along the way...
