Bekah BowmanBekah was born and raised in Idaho. She, her husband and boys have had the privilege of living in the Midwest, Southern California and Idaho--twice! She loves every place they've called home because of the people they did life with along the way. Bekh graduated with a degree in psychology and a minor in children's ministry and launched into ministry after graduation. She served as a children's pastor in Idaho, Illinois, and California and assumed it would be a lifelong career. But then Batten came beating on their door. She stepped out of the workforce to be home full-time. Those years at home were precious. It was during that time; she discovered a love for writing that would move beyond her journal entries. Bekah shares her work across different publications now, speaks at events for women and moms, and enjoys being part of God's redemptive and hope-filled story in this way. Besides writing, Bekah is passionate about bridging the gap between churches and families with disabilities. Because she was a children's pastor for several years and then a rare disease mama, she identifies with both sides of the struggle. Her hope is to use her knowledge and experience to help church become a place of belonging for everyone. When she isn't writing, you might find Bekah at the office working as the Volunteer Manager for her community's local Guardian ad Litem (CASA) program, spending time with her hubby and son and two dogs, or jumping in on an indoor soccer game. She loves coffee, fresh journals, and meaningful conversation. And most of all, she loves being a small part of God's Big Story. Read More Read Less
