About Me
Hello! I’m Melissa
Author & Speaker
My life can be summed up in one phrase: “I love the Lord!” Everything I do stems from my love of God. I love the people God has put in my life because of the love God has shown me. The choices I make in my life come from a heart of obedience to the God I love. The message I share with the world centers around the love of Jesus Christ that He displayed on the cross for all humanity. I hope that this heart of love is clearly displayed in my writing and speaking as I try to stay very close to God’s Word.
I am the wife of the most amazing man of God you could ever meet. He is a pastor and truly has the heart of a shepherd. We have served together in various ministries our entire marriage.
We have a son and two daughters who bring us greater joy than anything in this world. Training them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord has been the most challenging and most rewarding accomplishments of our lives. I am a hairstylist by trade and enjoy the opportunities I have had to minister to the women who sit in my chair. I am an online student at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary working toward an Mdiv in biblical counseling. I have been writing and teaching about God and His Word since I was a teenager. While my life is a richly blessed one, it has not been an easy one. God has allowed me to experience much hardship so that His glory can shine through to the hurting people I come in contact with. My mission is to exalt the Lord as I equip and encourage women to experience the life-changing love of Jesus in their own lives.
