At age 9, at a Christian camp in Texas, on a rock overlooking a bluff, I asked Jesus to come live inside my heart. Thankfully, I’ve walked with Him ever sense. Here’s the prayer I prayed: “Jesus, I need you. Please come live inside my heart.” It was a simple prayer that has saved my soul and blessed my life. If you haven’t prayed that prayer, how about doing so now? As I got older and understood my sin, I added this to the prayer, “Jesus, I acknowledge my sin…I ask your forgiveness and desire that you help me within…and please be my friend.” When you ask Him to reside in your heart, you’ll never be the same. It doesn’t mean life is easy. We all have peaks and valleys, and some valleys are almost unbearable. I know those valleys and have been in many in my life. Yet, Jesus has been with me in them. I’ve known Jesus as my Creator, My King, and My dearest Friend. I love each special part of Him. I know and love God the Father whose sovereignty is my sanity. He knows what’s best for me, always. I’ve learned to listen for the Holy Spirit to guide me and how to hear His voice. I treasure my relationship with my best friend, Jesus. If you would like to talk about how to have a relationship with God, Jesus or the Holy Spirit, please message me. I’d love to encourage you.

I love sharing with groups about a few topics including:
- Creating Your Personal Mission Statement
- Reset Your Marriage
- Friendship & Friending as Jesus Did
- Our Creative Creator, Jesus

We were made to thrive in our lives and in our relationships. I’d love to come share more with your people.

Life can be both full and fulfilling, even in the empty nest. My guests and I have insightful conversations topics common to those in the encore years: relationships, health, wellness, life with adult children, marriage, friendship, aging parents, purpose, mission and more.
