She has also known great sorrow and loss.

Carol shared with us her story of the devastating impact of infertility, and her journey through five miscarriages. It was through those experiences that Carol emerged determined that she would not waste that pain. Her journey as an author and popular speaker at women’s conferences and retreats, where she teaches the Word of God with great joy and enthusiasm, had begun.

Carol’s books include Holy Estrogen!, The Rooms of a Woman’s Heart, Defiant Joy!, and her latest, No More Ordinary. Carol tells the stories of ordinary people made extraordinary by following their faith in difficult times, and it is inspiring. She draws from the lives of the famous such as Corrie ten Boom, Susannah Wesley and Ruth Bell Graham, to everyday people like you and me.
