One of the things I'm most grateful for is that I'm living my life free. Free of loose ends, free of bondages, free of anxiety, confusion, and self-doubt. But getting there was a process. There was a series of setbacks and difficulties...really hard things that are just, sometimes, life. But I learned how to bounce...and because of that, my setbacks are now comebacks. And in my comebacks, I've grown increasingly passionate about helping others live free. Look around...bondages and restraints and hopelessness are everywhere. And so I've decided to set about teaching the art and the gift of the "bounce." The comeback is all about the bounce...and it can be taught and learned. And, of course, the ultimate bounce-back comes through Jesus. I can't wait to tell you all about it!
Writing
After years of teaching high school English and lots of literature, I decided that I didn't want to always just talk about other people's writing. I wanted to write my own stuff. The stuff I felt like God was really placing on my heart to share. And so I started blogging...still do that. And I started sharing my musings on facebook, started publishing articles here & there, and finally, I decided it was time to write all of God's promptings and lessons to me in a book that I believe can be helpful to others. That book is called "Bounce" and will be released, if all goes as planned, in the latter part of 2018. I can't wait for you to read it! I've poured a lot of stuff that I believe God wants you to read in there. In the meantime, please check out my blogs, vlogs, and facebook page. I update those all the time and want to connect with you!
Speaking
A teacher never really stops teaching.
There's so much I've learned that I hope, by sharing, will save others some grief and frustration. And there's nothing quite like a personal, face-to-face connection. So I still get out there and speak, teach, and share. All kinds of things come up...sharing my testimony, retreats, youth groups, luncheons, church services, seminars. I've even shared with medical students at a university and future teachers at a couple of colleges. If someone's gracious enough to have me, I love sharing. Please feel free to contact me here or through facebook, email, or by phone to check availability.
I can't wait to see you!
