Manger to Mercy: Portraits of Grace - Paperback

Ripple, Stephanie: - Stephanie lives in the Midwest with her husband, James, and her daughter, whom she homeschools. She treasures time with her son and daughter-in-law and loves playing with her twin grandsons. Alongside nurturing godly character in her own children, she has had the privilege of mentoring teens and young women throughout much of her Christian life. Over the years, she has also led and participated in a variety of prayer ministries. Since its inception, she has served on the prayer team at Jennifer's Harbor in addition to various other roles, and more recently she joined the team as their lead editor.Whether she's tending vegetables and herbs in her garden or creating something delicious and healing in the kitchen, she finds joy in the simple, meaningful rhythms of life. As a licensed massage therapist, she is honored to walk with others on their journey toward health and wholeness-spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically.Becoming an author was a dream she didn't know she had. She always loved writing, but it was through teaching her children to write well that her passion deepened and her skills sharpened. When God began nudging her to share all she'd learned about cultivating Christlike character, she resisted at first-she knew nothing about publishing a book! But as He often does, God won her heart, she surrendered, and Off with the Old, On with the New was born. It's been an adventurous and faith-building journey ever since.
