“Taking this course changed my life.” – Abounding Faith NYSB Student, 2019
“I love the class.” – Abounding Faith Online NYSB Student, 2020
“How I miss your class, last year was amazing.” – Abounding Faith NYSB Student, 2019
I’m still in awe of the beautiful feedback I’ve gotten from students who have taken my Abounding Faith course through the New York School of the Bible (NYSB).
What a blessing it is whenever I get to teach a class based on one of my books!
It’s a joy and honor to encourage my students to choose faith over fear and BELIEVE!
One of the students quoted above said reading the Abounding Faith: 30 Bible Heroes Who Will Inspire You to Believe God for the Impossible devotional helped to awaken barren places in her life and helped her be content in other areas of her life. Glory!
This empowering class will help you grow in your faith and will encourage and inspire you to choose faith over fear and believe God for the impossible!
Don’t miss this class that you can take from the comfort of your own home wherever you are in the world.
I hope you and your friends will join us.
P.S. Fellas, please tell the ladies in your life about this empowering online class.

How diverse is your bookshelf, church or social circle? If everyone you interact with looks and thinks exactly like you, maybe it’s time to prayerfully widen your circle.
Christian Creatives & Communicators and Audacious Dreamers & Doers and Ministers & Leaders, let’s continue to learn from a variety of brothers and sisters in Christ as we walk by faith, hope and love and dare to live our God-given dreams
Tuesday Thoughts
“So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” (Galatians 3:26-28 NIV)
God is more interested in building your character than building your platform
Christian Creatives & Communicators and Audacious Dreamers & Doers and Ministers & Leaders, let’s remember to remain humble before the Lord as we dare to live our God-given dreams
Tuesday Thoughts
“Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.” (James 4:10 NIV)
Don’t shrink back … let your light SHINE
Christian Creatives & Communicators and Audacious Dreamers & Doers and Ministers & Leaders, let’s remember to shine for Christ as we dare to live our God-given dreams
Tuesday Thoughts
“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:14-16 NIV)

I recently found this precious photo while organizing more pictures. This is MY DAD in his element! I don’t remember ever seeing this pic before so it’s such a gift. I love how my Dear Dad is beaming and looking up and waving. I’m not kidding when I say my Dad LOVED marching in parades here and abroad. Here he’s representing one of the institutions he helped found and lead for some 20 years. He loved doing community work and being among people… Yup, That’s My Dear Super Extroverted Dad
When my Dear Dad liked a picture, he made sure to print it out and have it enlarged. He did that with both pics in this post. Here’s a photo of me with a bouquet of flowers I picked while visiting my Dad’s childhood home. (I felt like Dorothy among all the poppies in “The Wizard of Oz” lol) .. .What joy my Dad had showing me around his hometown and what joy I had exploring where my Grandparents lived with their seven kids! So grateful for my trips with my Dad to his beloved Ecuador. As I’ve mentioned before, it’s eternally Spring in my Dad’s hometown. (Did ya notice my colossal sunburn that I mentioned I got from being at the parade during that visit? Yup, being by the equator without sunscreen will bake you in and instant if you’re not careful…)
So grateful for so many photos, videos, writings, sweet memories and more!
I’m amazed that my Dear Dad’s legacy lives on through my sister and me and mi familia … that’s part of the reason why I delight in sharing all these tributes to my Dear Dad.
If you’d like to read some more of my tributes and learn about some of what’s helped me through this grief journey, check out the blog post links below or Season 6 of the Abounding Faith for Today podcast. I pray you’ll be encouraged on your own grief journey.
