So what’s this site all about?
For me, it’s about creating something that I see as a growing need in today’s world.
A haven. For women.
For you.
As a pastor’s wife, my heart holds a passion to love and help women.
Whether you are a wife or a mother….whether you are involved in ministry or in a career….whether you are on a mountain or in a valley….your life needs a safe place.
Do I have all the answers?
Oh my. NO.
Being a pastor’s wife doesn’t make me super-human or automatically ‘more spiritual.’ Neither does it make me less of a woman or deplete me of personality.
But it does make me more accountable- that is, more responsible for my choices and for how I invest my life in others’ lives.
For me, it’s about living each day in dependence on God’s grace.
Grace… the God-given strength to do His will and to live each day being spirit filled.
It’s a gift that enables me to do what I can’t do any other way.
Do I always accept that grace and live by it? I wish I could say yes. But for the times when I don’t, at least I know it’s there.
It’s there for you, too. And that’s what this site is all about.
My passion is for this site to be a place of encouragement for you. A place where women are real with each other and where we edify on purpose. I plan to add more resources for women as time goes on. Meanwhile, we can connect from wherever we are in the world…and from wherever we are in our lives….
In a place where we are empowered by God and where we have the freedom to share that life with others.
It’s a life I embrace.
With grace.
Will you join me?
