Hi, I’m AnnMarie!
I’m a Christian writer and Bible study encourager with a heart for helping busy women find peace, purpose, and strength in God’s Word. My favorite moments are the ones spent digging deep into Scripture- uncovering His wisdom and comfort, then sharing it in ways that speak to your everyday faith. Whether it’s a simple morning blessing or a Bible study that speaks to your heart, my hope is to help you draw closer to Jesus- one verse at a time!

A Little Bit about Me

My whole working career has been as a Registered Nurse, but writing children’s books was always a dream. Unfortunately, a career and family came first (God had bigger plans!)

I grew up in the church and desired to learn about Him from an early age. I remember being so excited as a 4th or 5th grader to finally understand about the Holy Spirit!

As a young adult, I accepted Jesus as my personal Savior. Studying the Bible through Bible Study Fellowship opened my eyes and heart in ever-expanding ways. I stayed in their program for 12 years total, as a student and a Children’s Leader.

I loved the in-depth study they offered. It was truly my “happy place.”

In what would be my final year of BSF, I learned that the fastest growing age group in our study were women age 70+.  I wondered where all the younger women were…

And then, thinking of my own daughters, they were busy doing life.

God immediately put it on my heart and in my mind to start a blog to share His love and encouragement. I had sat in the pew taking in all this knowledge for years. It was time to go out and share what was in my head and heart.

God knew I had zero knowledge on how to do this, but He has led me every step of the way.  This blog is HIS, not mine.  I’m just the vessel to share what He has already written.  It is truly amazing to watch Him work!

I began this blog in 2017 and transitioned to a “maintanance mode” in 2026 due to health issues. While I am not adding anything new, I wanted to preserve the timeless and extensive blog posts and resources from over the years. All my resources are free to instantly download and print or save.

Thanks for stopping by!

Blessings,

AnnMarie
