Long Bio

Jenny knows how it feels to struggle with identity and performance mentality to prove her worth. God has done so much in her life in this area and she is passionate about encourage others, especially women, in Christ-Centered Identity, Intimacy, and Influence. She believes knowing who you are in Christ truly changes  everything and is foundational to a flourishing life. 

After serving on the pastoral staff of The Rock FWC  in Huntsville, Alabama for over twelve years, her journey took an unexpected turn. Since August  of 2018, her family has been living in beautiful Iceland as ministry workers and community members. They partner with God to share Jesus authentically, encourage believers and support local churches. 

Jenny considers writing to be her fingerprint of worship and enjoys crafting fiction, non-fiction, poetry and prose that glorifies God, drawing herself and others closer to Him. She is the author of several books and creative resources including Becoming His, Daddy’s Girl & Daddy’s Boy Devotional, and the most recent book,Milk & Honey in the Land of Fire & Ice. This book, along with Becoming His, has been used as material for Bible Studies and small groups. She also loves getting to share these messages in person and in virtual gatherings. 

Out of the overflow of this, Jenny also encourages other writers in their call to write, serving as a book doula of sorts. She offers services and publishing packages through Milk & Honey Books. She is a member of ACFW, Called Creatives, and also writes for and serves on the board of Velvet Ashes, a ministry dedicated to encouraging women serving cross-culturally.
