Hello, my name is Debbie Hogan, and I am a former homeschool mom of seventeen years, former pastor's wife, lover of books, life-long learner, and passionate pursuer of God's Word. I am currently studying, (among other things), to be a certified biblical counselor with the Association of Biblical Counselors. I have a passion for writing and sharing on the many graces of God I see both in my own life and in the lives of others. Being the mom of a special needs adult daughter, I understand the need for that encouragement in our daily lives. And.. if you have found your way here.. I pray this blog can be a blessing to you and bring that encouraging word you may need no matter where you find yourself or what season of life you might be journeying through. I know all too well that life can be extremely challenging, and we may find ourselves tested to our very cores - but I also know that God’s Grace sustains and upholds us through it all. I pray I can offer a little light of grace for your day. blessings ~ Debbie
