I’m Heather!

hey friend

An author, speaker, worship leader, and Bible teacher. My whole-hearted intention is to help women see and experience Jesus for all He is. With a teaching style that's relatable, humorous, and sincere, I strive to be an easily beloved teacher of God’s Word. I am happily married to my college sweetheart, Carl, and together, we are blessed with four sons: Oak, Ezra, Abe, and Ike. Our home is nestled in Franklin, TN.

God awakened a love for His word during my college years, where I found truth and community with disciple makers and mentors. After college, my husband and I spent the next 20 years traveling, leading worship, and speaking at conferences and events, all while adding four sons to our family. Throughout this winding and wild journey, my desire to worship Jesus and teach His word remained steadfast. As more opportunities arose within the local church, God ignited in me a fresh desire to encourage and inspire women to find their identity by seeking Christ and serving others.

I founded Behold Ministries and work diligently to see women grow and thrive in Jesus. I speak at conferences, Bible studies, and alongside my husband at Family Life’s Weekend to Remember marriage conferences.

Discovering Christ’s healing, value, and purpose in my own story fuels my mission to help women see for themselves that beholding Jesus changes everything.

We believe that because of our sin nature, we are born following our own way and the only way to be saved from ourselves and our sin is through Jesus - the one and only son of God.

We believe God speaks to His followers through His infallible word and Spirit.

We believe that as women, we find our true meaning and value in knowing Him and making Him known.

We believe in the manifest presence of God and his heart-changing power.

We believe we are better together and desire to live life in community and not in isolation.

Behold Women's Gathering
