My Story

 

My name is Stacey and I’m so glad you are here. I’ve been online for over 15 years and during that time I have written ten books, hundreds of blog posts, taught all over the country, and connected with thousands of friends on social media. I had no idea when I started this journey what God would do. 

The reason I’m still here is that I love connecting with you in your everyday life no matter where you call home. I currently live in Central Florida with my husband and four daughters. Two years ago I began working full-time as the Director of Women’s Ministry at my church, First Orlando. 

My goals for my online life and real life are the same. I want to encourage your heart, grow in faith together, and connect like girlfriends do by talking about the stuff of life. I hope you feel welcome here. But more importantly, I hope you see Jesus.

Looking Forward,

Stacey

Admitting you are at the end of yourself gives you a front row seat to what only God can do.

My Family

I grew up in a small town in Southern Indiana and graduated from Indiana University. My husband Mike and I met through our involvement with Campus Crusade for Christ (Cru) in college and have been married for 31 years. We have four daughters ages 15, 19, 22, and 25.

We moved to Central Florida over 22 years ago for my husband’s job and loved it so much we stayed. I still miss Fall, basketball, and my family, but the Sunshine State is home now. We are grateful for how the Lord has written our story.

Books

I started writing on a blog in 2009 before my fourth dauaghter was born. I’m excited about my 9th and 10th book releasing in 2025!

Podcast

In the spring of 2025 I launched a Bible teaching podcast called Haven Women Podcast. Season 1 features Colossians 3: 1-17 and is available on Apple Podcast and Spotify.

Events

I love connecting with women in real life through live events. Do you have a conference, retreat, or gathering coming up and need a speaker? I’d love to hear from you!
