Welcome

Welcome to my virtual home. My goal is to help women who are hurting to discover  there is hope, faith and love regardless of what she may be dealing with and to grow in her faith.

I share encouragement through Life Application  and Biblical Application, along with my love of music and history into my site.  You will find the Story Behind the Hymn or Song in my blog pages.

I am a novelist at heart, and have been published in a number of anthologies and am now pursuing publication.

On top of being a writer, blogger, musician and speaker, I wear a number of other titles. These include daughter, sister, caretaker, Historian and Living Historian, Certified Activities Consultant, life coach,  Bible teacher, consultant and coach, Genealogists, and survivor. But my most important title is child of God.
