Exchanging
hurt for hope is Sheryl's life focus. Through more
than twenty-five years of marriage to a pastor,
parenting two children, overcoming addictions,
beating cancer and enduring losses. Sheryl loves
life in Christ and chooses to live each day in
abundant freedom and hope. Sheryl's speaking and
writing encourages women with her practical
presentations in growing toward wholeness. Her
powerful messages testify of God's transforming
power.
Sheryl
is passionate about sharing how God takes the ashes
of our losses, bitterness, and mistakes; and turns
them into something remarkably beautiful. Her own
story began with her conversion to Christ over 30
years ago. Once a rebellious teen-ager, alcoholic
and drug addict, Sheryl knows what it is to
overcome physical addictions. Bearing the emotional
scars of sexual sin, Sheryl understands the agony
of abuse and how it affects marriage and other
relationships.
In
ministry, Sheryl has endured changes and
challenges, forcing she and her husband to move on
to new levels of faith, trust and dependence on
God. Recently healed of stage 4 lymphoma, Sheryl
knows the heartbreak of disappointment,
discouragement and disease. Sheryl's messages
renew, refresh and revive all who hear them.
Sheryl's desire is for women to understand their
identity in Christ, to be set free from past hurts,
and to be healed and whole emotionally as they
understand the truth of Isaiah 61:1-7.
The
joys of Sheryl's life are her husband and two adult
children. Sheryl has been a columnist, discussing
ministry, parenting and life as a pastor's wife for
Focus on the Family. She has written hundreds of
articles, which have appeared in varied
publications, including Pastor's Family
Magazine, Discipleship Journal, Just Between Us,
CCM Magazine and Walk Through the Bible.
Since 1998, her radio ministry, "Kindred Moments
with Sheryl Giesbrecht" has broadcast daily to
thousands of listeners. Sheryl holds a bachelor of
arts from Biola University, a master's in ministry
and is pursing a doctorate of divinity.

God
is Absolutely Crazy About You or (He Calls Me
Princess)
We'll be reminded of God's passion for us as we
study Psalm 139. Most of us know the God of the
universe created us with a plan and purpose, but
does it really make a difference in our daily
choices? Do we like who God created us to be? Not
always. We will be reminded of God's passionate
love and the impact this can make on how we accept
ourselves while we embrace God's perfect plan for
our lives.
