Ministry Specialties - Women's retreats, conferences, workshops and banquets; Pastors' wives' events; Sunday morning worship services.

Mission Statement - My greatest delight is to discover new truths in God's Word and share them through stories or object lessons in a way that captivates an audience or reader.

Ministry Background - As a pastor's wife for fourteen years, I experienced both the ups and downs of that calling and use those memories to minister to women in all stages of life. I began speaking beyond my own church walls in 1996, and though most of my audiences are believers, I include a simple, subtle, yet clear, description of the Gospel in each presentation. I'm a Bible teacher that uses humor, stories and intriguing demonstrations to imprint God's Word on the heart.

Professional Background - I've worked in banking, optometry and cosmetics. I've been a student's wife, coach's wife, factory worker's wife and pastor's wife - all with the same husband - I might add. I consider myself a full-time wife, learning to be an empty-nest mom.

Educational Background - Associates Degree in Business at Indiana University, 5 years of Bible Study Fellowship, many years in the School of Hard Knocks

Current Presentations

Retreats/Conferences (multi-talk events)
Sacred Love, Sacred Dance – Scripture says we are to love the Lord our God with all our hearts, minds and souls, but how do we love and invisible God? Mesu shares from the Song of Solomon a shortened version of her novel, Love in a Sacred Song. The sacred love of Solomon and a lovely shepherdess provide heart-rending life applications that can change our knowledge of God to love for God—loving Him with all our hearts, minds and souls.
Finding God in the Why – Most people ask God “Why” at some point in their lives. Why is God Picking on Me? Why is He Punishing Me? Why is He Pulling Away? We’ll examine some of those deeper questions about suffering posed in Mesu’s novel, Love Amid the Ashes. Then, we’ll discuss how to ask good questions and hear God’s answer.
Extreme Makeover – What Is God Doing In You? – A practical working weekend in which we have three goals: 1) we build our personal testimonies in order to 2) learn to boldly share the Gospel, and then 3) clearly discern God’s work in our lives. Bring your spiritual toolbelt, and be prepared to get real with the Master Builder.

Single talks
Turning Stressed Around – It’s Just Desserts (Spelled Backwards) - How many big breaths does it take before a balloon pops? The real question is - how many soccer games, piano lessons and late husbands does it take before mommy's head pops off? We'll take a practical look at how a believer can deal with stress and give hands-on stressin' lessons to recapture the joy of a peaceful heart.
Bible Basics 101 - Ever been baffled by the Beatitudes, perplexed by the Prophets or unregulated by the Revelation? The Bible can be a confusing book until you realize it's a single story. That's right - just one story - God's relentless pursuit of His beloved - you. Cover to cover. Genesis to Revelation. God simply wants you. Let me show you how it fits together.
