Hi! I’m Katie.

Grace-clinger. Truth-speaker. Pastor’s wife. Mommy of three. Auburn fan.

Nice to meet you!

I just love how God is moving and using the online spaces for His glory, and I am honored and thankful to be a part of His Kingdom-work online and “in real life.”

This site is designed to give you a small picture of all HE is doing in my little corner of the web, and in person through my speaking ministry

…so that in me you may have ample cause to glory in Christ Jesus…
(Philippians 1:26 ESV)

And that is exactly my hope…that you would have ample cause to glory in CHRIST as a result of His moving through me

Do Not Depart

Katie — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 18:18:09 +0000

My heart beats to equip women with what is needed to walk with God for a lifetime. I created a website to do just that. At DoNotDepart.com you can receive tools and encouragement to abide in God’s Word, by an incredible team of women.

The Do Not Depart blog was founded out of a desire for community around the Word. Through it I have found some dear, dear friends who love the Word, have a heart for teaching, and do a great job at it! They are pretty much running the show over there, and I am so thankful for their dedication to “rightly dividing” the Word.

Find More Jesus

Katie — Wed, 11 Jan 2012 12:56:03 +0000

If I am not careful, my children will grow up experiencing Easter as a sugar-filled day with fun activities and family dinner; they will get a new dress or pastel tie, a pretty basket, and probably a few cavities.

But no Jesus.

— Excerpt from Find More Jesus

Are you looking for a guide to help you point your children to Jesus this Easter? Do you find yourself browsing the internet — overwhelmed, yet inspired with all the great ideas out there — wishing someone could just tell you what to do each day?

I’ve been there, and after I shook off the paralysis of too many options, I created a fun and simple Easter plan that we’ve used in our own home for years. Find More Jesus an easy — yet incredibly meaningful — Easter plan sure to point your children to real meaning of Easter.

Find More Jesus

Great for family worship nights, after-school fun, or to incorporate into your homeschool days, Find More Jesus is an eight-day Easter celebration, designed to start on Palm Sunday and geared toward families with younger children.

PDF version is available for immediate download to your computer.

Also available on Kindle and Nook.

WHAT’S INSIDE

Each day includes:

Short daily Bible reading.
Corresponding simple egg-activity.
Suggested prayer time.
Personal focus point for you to chat about with your family.

A supplies list and thoughts on the Easter bunny from a Christian worldview are also included.

My hope is that Find More Jesus will make your Easter season intentionally Christ-centered AND easy.
