Hello, my friend!

If you long for a place where the mask can drop and you can be real, come on over. I'm Lisa—a wife, a mom, and the founder of Walking with Purpose, and I know like you do that life gets messy, even when we're desperately trying to do the right thing. And that's what grace is all about. We aren't enough, and just when we think that's the end of the story, Jesus shows up and fills in the gaps. You are welcome here, and we encourage you to share the content most meaningful to you.
With gratitude,
Lisa Brenninkmeyer

Founder & Chief Purpose Officer
Walking with Purpose
Lisa Brenninkmeyer
After hearing story after story of women looking for a safe place to ask questions about faith and needing ways to refuel, Lisa decided to do something to bring change. The result of her holy discontent is Walking with Purpose. Lisa is crazy about women, loves Christ passionately, and thinks the most exciting thing in the world is to connect the former with the latter. Lisa holds a bachelor's in psychology from St. Olaf College and is pursuing her master's in theology from Franciscan University. She and her husband Leo have seven children and five grandchildren and reside in St. Augustine, Florida.
Laura Phelps

Once upon a time, Laura Phelps discovered that the Bible was meant to be opened and read, and now she wants everyone to open and read their Bibles, too, because God's Word changes everything. A Catholic author, speaker, and content creator, Laura lives to share about the mess she was, the mess she still is, and the God who rescues her daily. She loves her husband and four children and buys way more books than any human could ever possibly read. Seriously. It's becoming a problem.

She lives in Denver, Colorado, with her husband and five children. Her dream is to see her generation set ablaze with love for the God who loved them first.
