Meet Tracy
Tracy graduated from Kansas State University with a BS in Interior Design in 1998. Eager to change her clients’ lives by improving the interior space they occupied, she thought she had the blueprints for her future completed. Then she met and fell in love with Jesus Christ, and He changed everything.
Since then she has pursued a different kind of interior design. God’s true design for Tracy involves improving the interior space of the hearts and minds of women around her. As her passion for Jesus and His Word grew, she attended Phoenix Seminary, and in 2005 she received a Graduate Diploma in Biblical Leadership. She then worked in full-time youth ministry, serving as the Director of Female Students and most recently as the Associate Minister to Women at Scottsdale Bible Church in Scottsdale, Arizona. Once her children were in school themselves, Tracy found herself back in the classroom, graduating with a MA in Biblical and Theological Studies from Phoenix Seminary in May 2019.
As a military wife and mother of two, Tracy currently pursues her passion for ministry on a national basis through her speaking and writing ministry. She also enjoys serving women locally via various ministry opportunities within Christ’s Church of the Valley. Tracy also serves on the board of LIFT, a Phoenix wide ministry for Women’s Ministry Leaders, and is the Co-founder of My Only Aim & Every Life Ministries Director of Leader Development, which exist to help women and ministry leaders deepen their faith and increase their impact within their homes, churches, and communities.
Tracy loves to travel and teach at women’s events, MOPs meetings, and enjoys linking up with other bloggers; sharing her heart on sites such as For Every Mom and Just Moved, Jesus Calling, Christian Parenting.org, Ann Voskamp, and is a contributor for the UK based online news provider, Christian Today.
Tracy is also the author of A Redesigned Life: Uncovering God’s Purpose When Life Doesn’t Go As Planned (Revell 2019), and Images of His Beauty, a 10-week Bible study for teenage girls and young adult women that focuses on identity in Christ, overcoming and healing through Christ, and bearing the image of Christ.
STATEMENT OF FAITH
I believe:
That One God exists eternally in three Persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
That Jesus Christ was begotten of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. Jesus is both true God and true man.
That the Holy Spirit convicts the world of sin and transforms the lives of believers into the image of Jesus Christ.
That the Bible is the inerrant Word of God, and is the final authority in life.
That all men and women are created in the image of God.
That the Bible clearly teaches that salvation is the free gift of God’s grace for those who have faith in Jesus Christ, who died for our sins. There are not many ways to get into heaven; the only way is through faith in Jesus Christ, period.
That those who receive Jesus Christ as Savior are born again of the Holy Spirit, become children of God, and are secure in their relationship with Him for eternity.
In the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ, His ascension into heaven, and His personal and imminent return to establish His Kingdom on earth.
That there will be a literal judgment of all mankind. I believe that Hell is a literal place of punishment reserved for Satan, fallen angels, and for those who have rejected Jesus Christ as Savior; and that Heaven is a literal place of everlasting blessedness for those who have received Jesus Christ as Savior.
