We all have a story. We all face hardships. Faith beacons us to a life of transformation. It’s during our transformation that God fashions us for His purposes. I call this process repurposing.

 re·pur·pose – (rēˈpərpəs) verb –to change [something] so that it can be used for a different purpose.

 My repurposing process led me through a 23-year infertility journey in the pursuit of the only title I ever wanted in life: Mom. This journey, which included seven IVFs and two international adoptions, fundamentally transformed me from the inside out. Yes, I have scars, but I don’t hide them because they made me who I am today: a promise seeker, a story teller, and a change agent.

 I don’t know your story, difficulties, or pain, but I can offer you hope and inspiration for the process. There is a purpose to the problems we face and there is a repurposed life waiting for us on the other side of this journey. 

Called to War

How Life’s Battles Transforms Us For God’s Purposes

Called to War is a book about faith and personal transformation. Part inspirational, part devotional, and part autobiographical, Called to War explores how the very thing you run from becomes the very thing you embrace, and why a journey with God transforms your eyes, your heart, and your walk. Framed metaphorically in militaristic language, this journey through infertility, in-vitro, adoption, and advocacy tells a story of surrender while at the same time imparts important lessons and rewards of a life lived in sacrifice for others.

A companion study guide is also available as a free download or in print format.

Grandma Hallie, my last living grandparent, passed away early Easter morning at the age of 94. She was my dad’s biological mother and was someone I grew up never knowing that I’d meet in this life. When I was 20 years old, a family friend conducted research on my...

Turning to the Light this Easter

These tulips reaching for the light in my kitchen are such a powerful visual. At all costs, the yellow bulbs and their leaves are extending, twisting, and curving sideways in search of the light. What’s most fascinating about this image though is that the whole room...
