A safari was always on Rick’s bucket list. 2021 was the year of many blessings and this was a big one. We went to Sabi Sands, South Africa and it exceeded our expectations.

About Teresa

I love to travel, spend time with family and friends, mentor young women, and linger over a good cappuccino. But more than anything, I love my morning time with God — what I call "coffee and conversation" time — and the ways He speaks and moves supernaturally in everyday life.

One morning during prayer, I saw a vision: Father God and Jesus, seated together in conversation, and I was the focus of their discussion. A gentle voice said, "It's coffee and conversation time." It was a tender and deeply personal picture of just how much God desires to be involved in our lives.

I never set out to become a blogger. But God has a sense of humor, so here I am — and here you are. Some of my richest spiritual lessons have come not from books or sermons alone, but from dreams, visions, and the unexpected ways God chooses to speak.

Through this blog, I'll invite you into my personal times with God and share the stories He has written across my life. My hope is to offer you Biblical and practical tools, encouragement for your soul, and a fresh invitation to walk in the supernatural power of God. When we truly know Him, we find ourselves living right in the center of His will — and we can't help but talk about it.

Our God-stories give others a glimpse of His glory. God is too good to stay silent.

I'm a dreamer. A God-dreamer!

One gentle request: please make my words secondary to the Word of God. Pause over the Scriptures. Let them be the anchor.

"If you want to boast, boast only about the Lord."

— 1 Corinthians 1:31

Rick and I are beyond grateful for our family — two wonderful daughters-in-law, beautiful grandchildren, and a life we could never have dreamed up on our own. Our adventures have taken us from the savannas of South Africa to the bungalows of the Maldives, and in every breathtaking place, the most breathtaking thing has always been this: He was already there.

The Bible says when a son finds a good wife, they'll find "a good life — and even more: the favor of God!," (Proverbs 18:22, MSG). Rick and I don't take for granted how blessed our family is by gaining two amazing women of God and beautiful grandchildren. We are blessed beyond words!
