I became a Christian in Yosemite National Park in 1974. From the very beginning I knew I had found my true life’s purpose. I began studying, praying and seeking God and have never stopped. I began a massive search for the knowledge of God and a deep relationship with Him. I know that what He has provided belongs to me, and I won’t stop until I am living in His highest and best!!! Through the 37 years I have belonged to Him, the Lord has taught me many things. I thank God that in accordance with His Word, He has continued to reveal Himself and His word to me. And as He commanded, I desire to teach to others the things He has taught me. That is the purpose for this blog.

I attended Rhema Bible Training Center in 1977-1978 as a single person. I came back, got married, did various things at various churches, had my first child, then together as a family we returned to Tulsa for my husband to attend the first year of Rhema and both of us to attend the second year together and graduated in 1984. We then returned to California to help out at a church of some friend’s of ours in Concord, California. After that we pastored The Church at Antioch from 1987-2003. Now we are involved at a growing, thriving church full of God’s presence also located in Antioch.

Since 1982, I have been busy raising five sons, 4 of whom still live at home. Jonathan is my firstborn, born in 1982. He is working as a web programmer for a local web development company. He recently earned his fifth degree black black belt in Okinawan Karate. He is a certified sensai. Daniel, my second son was born in 1985 while we were music directors and associates at a church in Concord, California. He is currently attending college studying to be a sound engineer. He is a musician and plays guitar, bass and keyboard a little. Matthew, my third son, was born in 1988, about two years after we began to pastor The Church at Antioch. His goal is a career in food. When he isn’t working or experimenting with recipes, He is out in the garage playing the drums. Michael, my forth son, was born in 1991 also while we were pastoring The Church at Antioch. He is attending college and working. He likes to spend time at his computer and with his friends. He is the most naturally thoughtful and kind of all of the boys. He has plans to go into the medical field in the future. Timmy, my fifth son, was born in 1992. He is currently working and attending college. He is musical, gifted at the piano and just about any other instrument he picks up.

I presently live in Antioch, California. I have a web design/graphic art business. I also teach private music lessons from my home.
