Hi, I’m Diana!

I’m so glad you’re here.

I love to see people abide in the abundant life offered in Jesus’ call to “come follow Me.”

I am passionate about encouraging, equipping, and nurturing disciples of Jesus, giving them a vision for how He speaks to every area of life—our joys and sorrows, our work and play, our interior lives and our relationships.

This is why I write.

Every day discipleship. Every day grace.

I write about spiritual formation and discipleship in the every day. I write as a fellow traveler on this journey, seeking always to see more clearly what it looks like to follow Jesus in my daily life.

I hope that here you’ll find words of challenge and encouragement, tools and resources to use on your own or with others, and stories of what being a disciple of Christ looks like in my own life. I love stories, and I believe we can learn so much from each other. Here, I want to open my own to you, share those of others, and celebrate the ones you’re living.

The Book

My first book, Companions in the Darkness: Seven Saints Who Struggled with Depression and Doubt, released in 2020 with InterVarsity Press. It tells the stories and shares the advice of people from church history who struggled with depression.

A Bit About Me

One October day, I walked into my favorite used bookstore and found a ring hidden inside a hollowed book. Several months later, I married one of the most genuinely kind and humble people I know. Scott and I have been on the delightful adventure of marriage ever since.

We both grew up in rural Pennsylvania and came to New England for me to attend Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. I graduated in 2016 with a Master’s in Spiritual Formation.

After living in New England for six years, we moved to be closer to our families. We once again call Pennsylvania home. You can often find us singing in the kitchen, chasing our ever-curious children, stomping through the woods, or feeding people at our large dining room table. There is a lot of coffee and laughter in this house.

Here I welcome you into life as it is—beautiful, messy, glorious.
