My husband, Jody, and I have served in ministry together for decades and currently pastor Life Church in Columbus, Mississippi. Along the way, we have served in multiple ministry contexts, helped plant churches, and ministered internationally. Ministry has never simply been a role, it has been the thread woven through our marriage, our family, and our community.
One of our greatest joys is our family. We have two incredible children, their spouses and five cherished grandchildren who continually remind me that wonder, delight, and legacy matter deeply.
In addition to pastoral ministry, I am a Certified Spiritual Director through Kairos University and a Certified Christian Life Coach thru Life Mentoring School, Master Certified Christian Life Coach through Light University. I am also the author of Sacred Eclipse, a book born from walking through seasons of darkness and discovering hidden grace.
Locally, I’ve served our community through leadership roles that support small business and economic development, including helping oversee several local coffeehouses and serving on our Main Street board. I love investing in the flourishing of our town.
But at the core, my passion is this:
I help people excavate sacred treasure from their own lives.
Life is not all unicorns and rainbows. It includes wilderness, waiting, and seasons of eclipse. Yet I have learned—personally and pastorally—that hidden within every season is grace. My calling
is to create sacred space where people can slow down, listen deeply, heal honestly, and rediscover their belovedness.
Through spiritual direction, coaching, retreats, writing, and teaching, I offer both contemplative depth and practical tools. My desire is not to fix people, but to walk alongside them as they learn to see differently—to recognize that their lives are not accidents or afterthoughts, but sacred gifts.
We have been given one extraordinary life.
What if you began to see yours as Sacred Treasure?
I would be honored to walk with you.
