Supporting You To Discover Biblical Insights For Navigating Life's Struggles, Including Mental & Emotional Challenges.
Hi, I'm Roula.
As followers of Christ, we're called to love our neighbors as ourselves, yet we're also called to protect our hearts and minds from toxic influences that hinder God's plan for our lives. I've personally walked the path you're on, questioning my purpose and longing for genuine connections within God's family.
In my journey, I've faced significant challenges and encountered toxic relationships. Despite these hardships, I found comfort and strength in God's word. Through faith and biblical guidance, I emerged from a difficult childhood, a seemingly perfect marriage, and a successful business, only to realize I was lonelier than ever.
As I explored deeper into scripture, I became more aware of the need to guard my thoughts and submit them to God. Guided by His hand, I found healing and purpose.
My life stands as a testament to the transformative power of God's love and grace. I'm dedicated to using my experiences to help others navigate away from negativity and draw closer to God.
EXCITING CHAPTERS OF MY LIFE
My Highest Value
The most important thing in my life is the deep connection I share with my Creator. Through prayer, worship, and studying His Word, I have built a relationship that brings me peace, joy, and fulfillment. I am constantly in awe of His love and grace, which surpasses all understanding. I find comfort in knowing that He is always with me, guiding me through life’s challenges and celebrating with me in times of joy. In the hardest moments of my life, especially during my husband’s illness, I have felt His presence carrying me through, giving me strength and hope. My greatest achievement is walking in faith and experiencing the transformative power of His presence in my life, even in the darkest times. I am grateful for the blessings He has bestowed upon me and look forward to continuing to grow in my relationship with Him for eternity.
Walking-Running Half Marathons
I absolutely love participating in walking/running half marathons. These events allow me to explore amazing places and meet fantastic people. What makes it even better is the complete mental, physical, and emotional challenge. The route doesn't care about my plans or moods; it simply challenges me to step up and grow stronger with each step I take.
A Peek Into My World
I’m a proud Greek-American, born in Greece, where Pythagoras calls home. Can you guess the island? Our son’s adoption was the greatest gift God has given me after my salvation! I’m also blessed with two wonderful grandsons and a bonus grandson, all three bringing so much love and laughter into my life and our family. Watching them grow and sharing in their adventures is one of my greatest joys.
I have an identical twin sister who’s my other half. I’ve lived in Orlando, Florida, for 33 amazing years, though Hawaii was home for three of them. Since 2017, I’ve had the blessing of running a ministry in West Africa, where I help underprivileged youth. A major goal of mine is to share the Gospel with as many people as I can!
Career and Academics
Thirty years ago, I began my professional journey in nursing before transitioning into Christian entrepreneurship. Although the early days were challenging, God blessed me abundantly. Some of the best decisions I’ve made were to study Theology, Apologetics, and History at DTS, Hillsdale College, and the C. S. Lewis Institute and to dedicate my retirement to full-time ministry.
Now, I find great joy in coaching and mentoring those eager to learn more about the Christian faith and culture. Studying Scripture and uncovering new truths daily is something I deeply love. Through years of reflection, I’ve come to understand that what I have in Christ is far greater than anything I have or don’t have in this earthly life. I now see that God has been preparing me for such moments, so I may use the gifts He has given me to point all glory and attention back to Him.
Faith Over Fear "Let Your Faith Be Bigger Than Your Fear" - Isaiah 41:10
One of my life declarations that resonates with my Christian values and principles is always asking myself, “If God is for us, who can be against us?" Romans 8:31. This affirmation reminds me to trust in God’s strength and presence, knowing that He will uphold me and help me overcome any fear or challenge that comes my way.
