Pull up a chair. You're going to want to stay…
Meet Steph
(you might know her as Cookbook around here!)
Steph is a recently separated Air Force veteran of 14 years, a Pacific Northwest girl, and the only woman in a household of boys: one toddler who treats her like a jungle gym, one very opinionated border collie, and one scrappy one-eyed terrier mix with big dog energy. Her husband is still serving in the Army, which means she knows a thing or two about holding things together on her own.
She was baptized by choice in January 2024 and has been on a mission to actually know God ever since, not just believe in Him, but really know Him. Since leaving the military, she has been doing something she never had the space to do before: sitting with God, reading the Bible slowly, and actually asking what she thinks.
When she is not writing, you might find her exploring mountain bike trails in the PNW, watercoloring at the kitchen table, tending her herbal tea garden, or singing worship music at full volume in her car.
She also creates original worship music for embodied prayer—a full spectrum of sound for every season of the human experience, from the dark nights to the beast mode breakthroughs to the quiet joy of coming home to God.
