Book Recommendations for 2021

By shauna 10 Comments

Depending on which source you consult, between 300,000 and 328,000 books are published in the U.S. every year. Worldwide, 2.2 million new titles roll off the presses annually. How do you decide what to read next? Years ago, I resolved to keep track of the books I read. Since then, Goodreads has come along and made keeping track a whole lot easier. (If you're on Goodreads, let's connect here!) If you need a few recommendations to begin your reading year with a bang, I've listed my … [Read more...]

A Monumental Christmas

By shauna Leave a Comment

A few years ago, I was driving around town doing the after-school shuffle. I dropped off my youngest at swim team and rushed to the middle school to pick up my middle son. One of his friends needed a ride, so I gladly ran him home. I planned to return library books and pick up a prescription before heading home for supper. I was zipping around town, feeling super productive and on top of my taxi-mom game. So, I was slightly annoyed when the large red pickup in front of me slowed to a … [Read more...]

The Gospel According to… Halloween?

By shauna Leave a Comment

What if the gospel is more like Halloween than Christmas? If you grew up hearing that Halloween was the celebration of evil, you might feel as shocked as I did when the question was posed to me. When I considered how the two holidays might relate to the gospel, the thought of Halloween being a superior picture seemed downright heretical. Until I took my youngest son trick-or-treating.   Costume design is not my forte, so my son dressed in his baseball pants, his team t-shirt, … [Read more...]

Recommended Reads for 2020

By shauna 2 Comments

Two year ago, I scribbled a sloppy list of books to read. Amazingly, it’s still on my desk. Titles have been added and checked off (and a few random phone numbers languish in the margins). The biggest challenge has been deciding what to read next. Audible and Overdrive (both audiobook platforms) are the ONLY reasons I’ve been able to maintain a robust (for me anyway) reading life. In 2019, my goal was to read two books each month, and I'm thrilled to say, I have some great ones to … [Read more...]

How I Learned about “Murder, Motherhood & Miraculous Grace”

By shauna Leave a Comment

It’s always risky to share a hotel room with a stranger. Some would call it crazy. But I did it anyway. Lest you think I’m completely out of my mind, the risk was mitigated by the fact that my roommate and I were both women attending a Christian Writers conference in Estes Park, Colorado. By the time we met on that May evening in 2014, I was exhausted. I had driven eight hours, located registration, lodging, dining and classrooms, and attended a pre-conference session. When the first key-note … [Read more...]

HI THERE!

I’m Shauna, and I help worn-out Christians find permanent rest and relief by retelling gospel stories that highlight Jesus’ kindness toward ordinary people like us.

In my books and on this blog, I weave history, theology, and fictional detail into a fresh retelling of familiar Bible stories. I started writing them because I needed them. When I shared my stories, people said they made the Bible come to life.

If you could use some permanent rest and relief, download my free Bible story devotional.

If you read Remarkable Advent this year, you know If you read Remarkable Advent this year, you know that we "left" Jesus in the manger. But of course, he didn't stay there.

In the first chapter of my book, Remarkable Hope, I’ve retold the story of Jesus’ first trip to church, so to speak 😉.

If you're looking for a book to start the new year, Remarkable Hope might be a wonderful continuation of your Advent reading. And right now would be the time to snag the ebook for a great price!!
