Spiritual Life
Julie was saved by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ in 1985. She attended a small Bible-believing church for the next 14 years where she learned the foundations of a solid walk with Christ and began to learn about Biblical counseling. Then God, by His design moved them through several churches. The first introduced her to teaching in biblical counseling that affected the heart and brought about many changes in her own life. God used the following pastor’s teaching to reveal His rich and abundant grace to her heart. Finally, when the Lord brought them to Grace Community Church, the ministry vision came to life. Through Reigning Grace Counseling Ministries, Julie put into practice the critical importance of the heart/mind connection and the impossibility of any meaningful change without it. God has also given her glimpses of understanding His sovereignty on this journey of life.
Ministry Life
Julie is a local and national seminar and conference speaker. Recently she became an international speaker teaching biblical counseling in Poland and the Czech Republic.
She is also the author of numerous counseling related materials and books such as Seeing Depression Through the Eyes of Grace, The Process of Biblical Change, and Toward A Biblical Understanding of Self-Injury.
Several of her books and materials have been translated into Polish and Dutch for use by other counselors.
She has several new projects in the works: Why Women Say “No” – getting to the heart of intimate issues; and (currently titled) Loving the Unloveable- a book about loving difficult people in your life, and she is in the research stage for a book on what is called “The Sandwich Generation” parenting and caring for your children and your parents at the same time.
