Passion | Redemption | Pursuit

These three words describe the basis of God's good work in Joanna. Her story is one of redemption - from self-absorbed behavior, chasing things of the world, and eventually though the dark landscape of sexual sin and the impacts of life choices that had caught up to her. She went from being a woman who hated the things of the Lord, pursuing all of her own means of love and security, to being a woman who had an unmistakable encounter with the Lord, and could no longer deny Him. He pursued her, and taught her in return, the value of a lifelong pursuit of Him.

Teaching & Speaking

Joanna's passion for teaching & speaking is purely for the glory Christ alone. Having lived over three decades without understanding His love for her, Joanna is on mission to make sure other women do not suffer from the same misconceptions she did, in terms of love, sexual purity, submission, and the dangerous path of following their own heart, instead of His. Experienced in not only writing & editing testimony accounts, books of her own, sermons for other pastors, and a concise lesson in weekly blogs for Today's Christian Living magazine, Joanna understands the process and preparation necessary to deliver an effective and powerful presentation.

Joanna can boldly speak on topics such as:

Sexual sin, including homosexuality

Purity before and after marriage

Same sex attraction

Redemption & restoration

Pursuing a new life in Christ

The narrow road of holiness

Love versus affection

Identity with the Lover of our soul

Understanding God's Word, personally

Submission, as a single woman, a girlfriend, and as a wife

The value of being "claimed" and "named"

The freedom of grace

Bible study of Galatians, Jude, Jonah, Proverbs, and more.
