In August 2008, our lives changed forever. Doctors told us our third child would die before breathing his first breath. We were heart-broken.

Showing Heart is an authentic, in-depth account of our family’s difficult journey having a medically fragile child. Readers have praised the work as a “must read” and “inspiring.”

After surviving over a dozen surgeries and procedures, living in the hospital a majority of his first year, and spending countless hours working toward stability and normalcy, Ryan is thriving, something everyone was unsure he’d do.

A story of the resiliency of the human spirit, join us as we walk bravely in the midst of life’s difficulty. Showing Heart is available at most popular retailers online.

As a Protestant who never pondered Easter as an entire season, I loved the idea of focusing on Jesus and his ministry for the 40 days leading up to Easter, the same amount of time he spent in the desert.

I wanted my kids to come along for the journey so I set about praying over and writing 40 devotionals starting with Jesus’ time in the wilderness all the way through Resurrection morning. Looking Toward the Cross is based on a five-day format. The Saturday devotionals explain the five aspects of Lent for those interesting in exploring the topic more. Sundays are reserved for corporate worship.

Each devotion also has a quick object lesson to enable kids to easily grasp abstract concepts and are applicable for preschoolers on up.

Looking Toward the Cross is available in print on Amazon or as a .pdf file below.
