Through her teaching and writing, she points women to the reassuring truth that God is working all things together for their good and His glory.
After an unexpected Facebook message led to a first date, an engagement, and a farm wedding, Heidi and her husband were blessed with four children—walking reminders of God's goodness and faithful plans.
