"I have been both broken and blessed," Brenda reflects-a simple truth that echoes through every chapter of her life. Born and raised in a small town in Northern Michigan, she was firmly grounded in a loving Christian home, where her faith first took root. Today, she lives in Texas with her husband, and a joyful menagerie of pets, embracing her deep love for animals and people alike.

Brenda is known by those closest to her as authentic, grounded, and unwavering in her compassion. A devoted prayer warrior and bold follower of Christ, she has led countless Bible studies and served as a trusted counselor to people facing the hardest trials-those navigating homelessness, recovery, and life after incarceration. Her heart beats for the broken and voiceless, and she has made it her life's mission to stand in the gap for them.

Through every season-whether marked by pain or purpose-Brenda has remained a vessel of hope. She never meets a stranger, and everywhere she goes, she carries the light of redemption, proving that grace doesn't just restore... it transforms.
