I have known and loved Jesus for as long as I can remember. When I was growing up, my mom showed me what it meant to know Jesus and follow Him. She was a teacher...she might be to blame for my choosing to become a professor (the best professional decision ever!) God has been faithful to me in all things. He has carried me through the most difficult times and given me the most incredible gifts in this life: my husband, kids, family and friends - the great hope of Heaven for eternity.
