I live in Northern Virginia with Doug Everhart, my husband of 40+ years. He’s a retired educator. We have two daughters, Hannah and Clara.

Doug and I traveled across North America in Big Blue, our truck camper. I wrote about the sights we saw and people we met at Big Blue Adventures.

Author

In addition to the three books above, I’ve written many articles, some of which are available at the “Articles” tab above. Highlights include two award-winning cover stories for Christian Century, an op-ed for the Washington Post, and a controversial Sojourners article about abortion. Other bylines include Religion News Service, Patheos, and Feasting on the Word. 

Pastor

I’m a Presbyterian pastor who served churches for more than three decades. I’m grateful for my experiences in ministry, which spread across four states and the District of Columbia. As of summer 2023, I am “Honorably Retired.”
