“Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless His holy name.” Psalm 103:1

Greetings from a sinner saved by grace! I spent my early adult life living Romans 10: 2 & 3 “For I testify about them that they have a zeal for God, but not in accordance with knowledge. For not knowing about God’s righteousness and seeking to establish their own, they did not subject themselves to the righteousness of God.” I studied God’s Word incorrectly and through the lens of a false teacher. This lead me away from the real God of the Bible and my Savior, Jesus Christ. Through, the Lord’s lovingkindness, He brought me to a breaking point where I turned to Him, came into agreement with Him and submitted to His Word.

My first experience with a good Bible study was an inductive study on 1 John in 2013. I had always believed that the Bible was too complicated for me to personally understand but

in this class, I learned tools for study and how to understand God’s Word in context. I’ve been leading inductive Bible studies ever since and started leading online Bible studies with BTI in early 2017.

I live in south eastern-Pennsylvania with Ed, my husband and best friend of over 40 years. We have three lovely daughters and their families including five precious grandchildren. I enjoy walking, cycling, quilting, reading, writing and playing the piano. My daily prayer is to serve the Lord with gladness and to be a godly grandmother.

“For most of my life, I believed the Bible was too complicated for me to understand and inductive study gave me the ability and tools to study and understand God’s Word for myself.”
