ABOUT LIZ

Our First Cup of Coffee

HERE'S A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME

I am a Christian writer and speaker passionate about encouraging women to grow lives that grow God's Kingdom. I have had many "careers" and reinventions over the years including as a professional photographer, website/graphic designer and marketing consultant.

I'm excited to finally be living my life fully submitted to God's will and direction in my work and am now focused on writing and speaking as well as serving as an educational facilitator for our daughter who attends school online. I have not attended seminary, but am interested in pursuing a Master's of Divinity degree in order to better understand, share and teach the Bible.

My hope is that in these pages and through my words, you will be pushed closer to Jesus, encouraged to stop chasing "more" and inspired to live with "less."

Most importantly, I want to remind you, or if you haven't been told, I want to tell you, that God IS faithful, good and for you. 

The Creator of Heaven and Earth desires to have a deep, ongoing relationship with you.

My husband and I have been married since 2004 and have one child, our daughter. We live in far northern California on my family's cattle ranch. We're not really ranchers but do have a small menagerie including chickens and goats.

I believe we are made for more than just doing what makes us happy. I believe in living a life that glorifies God and blesses others. I desire to leave people and places better than I found them - closer to Jesus and one day nearer His Kingdom.

As a family we are rooted by our faith in Christ, guided by God's Word and driven to share the truth of the Gospel.

We're not perfect and life can be messy, but His blessings are bountiful and my soul and my voice can't help but sing His praises.

COUNTRY OR CITY

coffee or tea

sweet or salty

warm or cold

spring or summer

jeans or dressES

morning or night

I'd choose the country over the city any day.

French Press coffee every morning!

Salty for sure. Unless you've got a box of See's Candy.

How about right in the middle?

Summer... because camping and dinners outside are the best.

Almost always jeans. But I do love a dress from time to time

Early mornings in the quiet stillness spent digging into God's Word
