Ready to grow in your faith?

Me, too.  I'd love to share what I'm learning with you.

Here you'll find a collection of blog posts and articles to encourage you on the journey of faith. I hope you'll drop me a line if one of them is particularly helpful.

 

Can I offer that encouragement in person (or virtually)? Let's discuss your needs for a retreat or conference speaker. (Visit my speaking page for additional details and sample messages.)

 

And I've included a variety of other resources to equip you as well, including a free Bible study download, links to all my Our Daily Bread articles, and links to my other published blog posts and books.

 

Dig in, friend! I'm glad you're here.

Free Bible study

To equip you on the journey of faith. 

He is... therefore i am

Is there a difference between what your mind knows to be true about God and what your heart seems to believe?

The He is... therefore i am Bible study (co-authored with Julie Turner) examines six attributes of God's character and encourages participants to embrace the corresponding truths in their own lives.

The free e-book available for download. Printed copies of 10 or more also available by request.

When is your next retreat or conference?

I have been speaking professionally for more than two decades. I still love every minute of serving ministries through spoken messages. Please check out my speaking page to discover some of the topics I'm often asked to address either as a keynote or workshop.

Maybe you or your event speakers need some support crafting and delivering their messages? I've coached TEDx speaker slates and ministry conference speakers and I'd love to come alongside your efforts as a coach, too.

Use the button below to schedule a time for us to chat so I can learn more about your event.

Kirsten's teaching was always well researched, but more importantly, it was delivered with a personal touch that drew her listeners in and helped them apply the Word in their daily lives.

For His glory

It’s hard for me to imagine the Messiah coming in any other fashion than Jesus’ bodily form. I think that’s because it’s the only way I’ve ever heard, or known, the story. A baby. In a manger. But when I stop to consider that God put on human flesh, I…

Now Hiring: Priests

I’m not sure I’d apply for the job. The Levitical preisthood, descended from Aaron among the tribe of Levi, had a job I’m not convinced I’d want. When I reflect on their duties, I have a mixed reaction. One part of me esteems their role highly: what a privilege to…

In the waiting

As a kid, December moved at a glacial pace. Christmas just took forever to arrive. (Cue the dramatic sensibilities of a nine-year-old girl.) Of course, as an adult, this month moves by so quickly it almost gives me whiplash. This week I revisited the promises made to Abraham about the Messiah.…

The Back Float: Overwhelmed – Part 5

Constant struggling against the overwhelming waters may well be the biggest reason for not being able to cope with life. When a child learns to swim, one of the first skills instructed is floating. Being able to float on the water is a singularly valuable tool for a swimmer to…

Above Water: Overwhelmed Part 4

When the waters of life feel like they’re closing in, there is a way to stay above the rising tide. The account of Jesus walking on water never bothered me. He is God and has full authority over the natural laws (Matthew 14:25). The part where he calls Peter out…
