Middle and high school literature studies, college-prep analysis, book clubs for kids who want an adventure, introductory writing, and engaging story times for the youngest of readers and story lovers are my passion. Find my Outschool courses here and my literature courses for adults here.

Our stories inform who we were, who we are, and who we are becoming. For me, writing is an opportunity to share our individual stories, our collective human experience, and the hope we can have when we learn to live in freedom.
To that end, I have written two books that begin with our story of legalism, loss, and freedom in Lost & Found: Losing Religion, Finding Grace, and continue for those seeking a way out of really crappy religious systems in Leaving Legalism: Learning to Love God, Others, and Yourself Again.

words to support you
From finding freedom from religious rule-keeping to an inspiring story of a family (ours!) that found the gospel all over again, I write words that remind you how very loved by God you are.
Community to help you
You are not the only one. There are so many of us out there who forgot what it means to be loved by God and how to live in that love.
Join us as we remind each other!
speaking to inspire you
Yes, I speak, too. In fact, it's one of my favorite things to do. I tell some stories, talk about Jesus, and leave each group with one giant reminder of whose we are and what he's done for us.
