Hi there! We are two friends excited to share our love of teaching Bible class to women and children. Our friendship began at church as we were amidst the joys and challenges of raising our young families. Our bond has transcended from playdates, phone calls, and countless shared meals. Through the years we have celebrated many milestones, answered prayers, and found solace and strength in our faith. We are members of the Lord’s church and worship at Whitehouse church of Christ. We invite you to join us there!

Witnessing our own children grow up so quickly has emphasized the importance of making the most of our time with Bible class students. With limited time with our students (one to two hours a week) we focus on creating engaging lessons reinforced with visual aids, games, and activities. Our goal is to help the Scriptures come alive and instill a love for God’s Word. We have been blessed with amazing mentors who have graciously shared their love of teaching and resources and we are eager to pass on that legacy to the next generation of Bible class teachers. We hope the ideas found here will inspire your Bible classes and home.
