Faith and Family

In addition to ministering to women of all ages, I have a heart for helping moms and daughters develop deeper relationships with each other and God.  Our teen daughter, Bekah, shares this passion, and we have written two mother-daughter devotionals together.

Girl to Girl: 60 Mother-Daughter Devotions for a Closer Relationship and Deeper Faith is written for girls ages 7-12. It includes 60 devotions with Scripture, conversation starters, and a shared journaling section after each devotion.

Heart to Heart: A Mother-Daughter Devotional With 50 Devotions for Teen Girls is for teenage girls ages 13-20.  It includes 50 devotions, each with a shared journaling section to help moms and daughters connect through writing.  This is a great book for moms who want to communicate about awkward topics—like dating, purity, peer pressure, and more—but don’t know where to start.  We will help you!

These mother-daughter devotionals are transforming the lives of multitudes of mothers, daughters, mentors, and younger women! You can buy them as paperbacks or get your free Kindle Unlimited eBooks on Amazon right here.
