Hi, I'm a children's spiritual formation enthusiast.  

​

Over the past decade, I've led and advised children and family ministries in Anglican churches in Texas, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina, most recently serving as the Director of Family Ministries at All Saints Dallas. In 2019, I completed my D.Min. in Spiritual Formation and Leadership at Portland Seminary, focusing on leading change in congregations, helping them to value children's spiritual formation for the sake of the whole church. Previously, I studied Christian Education (BA, '11) and Christian Formation and Ministry (MA, '12) at Wheaton College. 

​

This website began in 2015 as a curriculum resource website, and it's morphed into a resource space for congregations seeking to better integrate and care for their children, embracing mutually transforming relationships.  I also enjoy serving as Vice-Chair for the board for The Children's Spirituality Summit and connecting with practitioners and researchers around the world. I recently co-edited Children's Ministry and the Spiritual Child (Abilene Christian University Press, 2023).

I live in the Oak Cliff neighborhood of Dallas, Texas with my husband, Sam, who leads an urban Christian classical school and our three young children: Davy, Jack, and Caroline Glad.
