About the Author
LUANN RILEY is an Alabama girl who grew up in church, went her own way, and made a big, holy mess until Jesus showed up and changed everything. She is a pastor and Bible teacher at The Woodlands Methodist Church with a master of arts in theology, known for opening Scripture with clarity, warmth, and hospitality. Her seasons of infertility, chronic illness, and loss have formed a steady, gentle voice for the hurting, the overlooked, and the worn out. With a background in business and decades of leadership experience, she equips disciples and leaders through transparent community and intentional relationships.
