Rebecca married Larry, her teenage
sweetheart. She has been teaching Bible studies since their first country
church over thirty years ago (home of “Miz Gordy” and the source of many
lighthearted—and chickenhearted episodes.) Rebecca also teaches at writers'
conferences and has worked with women’s ministry and discipleship. She and
Larry, an Associate Pastor, share their passion for marriage as they lead
marriage enrichment retreats. They have two married daughters and
sons-in-law and two grandchildren.
Rebecca has been a newspaper columnist
and church deaf interpreter and has won two American Christian Writer’s
Awards. She is a Speak Up graduate (Carol Kent), a member of AWSA (Advanced
Writers and Speakers Association) and WIN (Writers Information Network), and
has been interviewed on national radio and television stations such as At
Home Live and US Radio Network Stations. As an independent beauty
consultant, Rebecca also loves to share with women how they can be God’s
beautiful reflections inside and out. Rebecca is a hopeless romantic whose
favorite pastimes are gardening, spending time with family, reading, writing
from her back yard hammock—and learning about the Father’s heart.

“With Rebecca, you’ll laugh a little, and cry a
little, but her desire is that when you hear her heart, you’ll hear
the Father’s as well.” |
