More About Cookie White


Judith "Cookie" White was born and raised in rural Lynchburg, Virginia.  She was nicknamed "Cookie" by her paternal grandfather upon birth and has maintained that name throughout her life.  Cookie joined the church and was baptized at the tender age of seven while attending Flat Creek Baptist Church, but realized as a young adult the prompting for joining the church was the lure of participating in communion.  While taking classes on how to witness and bring others to Christ, at the age of 21, Cookie accepted Christ and walked through the waters of Believer's baptism!

Cookie met her husband, Gary, in 1979 and they were married a year later in 1980.  Gary worked for the Department of Energy's Navy Nuclear Program in a field office in Lynchburg when they met on a blind date.  After their marriage, they were transferred to Idaho Falls, ID and two years later found themselves in the home office in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where they remain today.  Of course, Cookie always thought she'd return to her beloved South, but God had much bigger plans.

While raising a family, Cookie was able to complete her lifetime goal of receiving a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education.  This degree allowed Cookie to teach various subjects, but she realized her love for teaching the Bible was her heartbeat.  Cookie has been involved as a facilitator in numerous Bible studies, been a keynote speaker at women's retreats and currently runs an online women's ministry through her website, The Sounding Board Ministry.  Her passion for writing devotional material has earned her the honor of publication in The Secret Place, Penned from the Heart, Faith Pittsburgh South and Rise, a devotional for college students. 

Additionally, during the past 40 years of marriage, Gary and Cookie have raised two wonderful children, have two beautiful granddaughters, and upon Gary's retirement, he came on board extending his financial business savvy helping Cookie fulfill her passion for writing devotionals, penning curriculum and speaking as God sends the opportunities.   

Cookie received her certification in 2013 as a Women's Life Coach in order to be better prepared to assist women today with issues that arise in their lives spiritually, mentally and emotionally.

Cookie has authored four spiritually themed books, And I Heard God Whisper, "Walk with Me", Being Led Beside Still Waters., "Why Jesus? Why Now?" The Relevance of Christianity in the Twenty-First Century and the newly released, And I Heard God Whisper, "I'm Still Here".   Each book is a compilation of daily devotionals for personal Bible study; however, the emphasis of the writing "Why Jesus? Why Now?" is to assist in answering questions about a believer's faith in the Lord Jesus.

Cookie's online women's ministry website; www.thesoundingboardministry.com was founded in 2009.
