FROM THE AUTHOR:

I fell in love with books and words about the same time as I fell in love with Jesus–as an elementary school girl. But it was after I received my MRS degree and my PHT (putting hubby through) that I knew God wanted me to write. As an inspirational author for over 35 years, I feel extremely blessed. In fact, because I love writing so much, I used to feel guilty for receiving payment. But I got over that.

I also have a deep passion for marriage and family. In the spring when I’m not meeting a writing deadline, you might find me spreading mulch in our multiple perennial gardens or trying to snag another eight-pound bass on a Texas lake with my high school sweetheart—my minister husband with whom I’m still madly in love. At any time of the year, I love curling up on the back porch swing with my Bible and coffee, as well as reading a great Christian fiction book or spending time with our two daughters and sons-in-law and four grandchildren. And I especially love praying with my Heavenly Father for the needs of others.

Readers from over 170 countries/territories have visited my e-home where I blog at https://www.rebeccbarlowjordan.com. In my weekly blog posts I often write as a mentor with years of marriage, family, and ministry experience (and hopefully wisdom). But most of the time I write about faith and the spiritual life. Some of my blog topics include the ways God speaks to us, prayers for our deepest needs, discovering God’s plan for our lives, and finding faith and courage in our most difficult times. I love to help others see God bigger–through His names and character–and how knowing Him more intimately can give them the tools they need to help make their lives all that God wants them to be. In my blog, I love to offer the same kind of heart to heart encouragement that fills my cards, devotions, and books.
