Live your life in a spirit of hope.

Encouraging women to live transparent, forgiving, grateful, and generous lives in our ordinary days.

Hi, I'm Bonnie

I’m glad you’re here. If you were in my kitchen, we would have bacon, eggs & coffee alongside the counter covered with books, my Bible, journal, pens and pencils! And we would share Jesus stories.

 

One of those stories is how the Lord prompted me to write Firm Foundation: Resilience After Trauma in response to the circumstances we endured when our son survived cardiac arrest at fourteen. God is our Healer. He is Able. 

 

Here you’ll find encouragement for building a firm foundation through Scripture, journaling, community, and prayer. 

 

Linger awhile as we fix our eyes on Jesus.

 

I’m a Jesus follower, wife, mom, grandma, author, youth advocate, journaling encourager, hope*writer, lifelong learner, and a residential realtor with a heart for people.
