About Deb

I am a blessed child of God, pastor’s wife, mom, gram, daughter, sister, and friend who loves nothing better than laughing with friends over a good cup of coffee or a glass of wine.

I love sharing the amazing ways God transformed a “good little church girl” into a joy-filled woman of faith. I am crazy in love with Jesus and feel so blessed to be able to tell others about Him through my writing and at retreats and conferences.

One of the most important things you need to know about me is that I am still a major work in progress. I’m taking life one blessing-filled moment at a time thankful for God’s patience and persistence as He continues to work on me.

I do hope you will join each conversation about faith and life. Our circumstances may be hard but we are blessed to know the One who is able to give us hope, peace, courage, and strength. The perfect reasons to praise Him and share His love … because at the end of the day, it’s all about LOVE. God’s Love! A love so great that…

“He gave His one and only Son so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16

The first time I heard Counting Every Blessing by Rend Collective – I felt like it was written for me and for the message of this space.

5.0 out of 5 Stars – Wonderful weekly read!

“This is the exact kind of devotional book I’ve been needing! Deb Wolf’s book, 52 Week Devotional Journal for Women, provides thoughtful and concise spiritual readings each week. She combines the daily struggles and doubts we often feel and ties it together with scripture. After each reading, there are thoughtful questions that I like to reflect back on during the week. There is also plenty of space to write down your thoughts to the questions. What I love most about this book is the length of the readings as they don’t seem overwhelming. This is definitely a book I can stay committed to for the entire year!”

And an Endorsement by Melanie Redd

“Betrayal. Heartbreak. Anger. Inability to forgive. Insecurity. Loss of hope. These are all things that we deal with as modern-day women. This new devotional from Deb Wolf addresses all of these issues and so many more with weekly infusions of powerful Scriptures, encouraging words, relatable life stories, and a large dose of wit and wisdom. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to any woman looking for inspiration and encouragement.”

To Find out more go to Sarah’s Garden@Amazon

Each child is born with a unique personality, individual talents, and specific abilities. Wouldn’t it be nice if they came with a personal manual, too?

Sarah’s Garden is a parable that tells of the struggle in each of us to flourish in our strengths, rather than giving in to our weaknesses.

Join Sarah as she deals with confusion and frustration while caring for her special garden. Find out who the King sends to help her after the ogre, the nasties, and the “trashy” villagers make a mess.

Finally, discover the thrill she experiences when she learns of her true identity and the fabulous future that awaits her

5.0 out of 5 stars Not Just a Kids Book,

This is a great book for “kids of all ages”; we have all been given special talents by God for use in His Kingdom on Earth. As Rick Warren would say, ” We have been created for a purpose”. This is a must read!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Biblical Fairy Tale for Girls of All Ages

This book is a beautiful allegory of God’s love for us and how we so often resist it. It’s a picture book with gorgeous illustrations, making it the perfect book to read to your daughter or grand-daughter. Yet it’s every bit a gift for grown-ups, too. If you like A Parable about the King, you’ll love Sarah’s Garden.
