Helping Women Follow Jesus in the

Middle of Real Life.

Invite Devan to encourage the women at your next conference, retreat, women’s event, ministry gathering or podcast. Based in O’fallon, Illinois — Serving churches and women’s groups throughout the St. Louis region, with travel available throughout the Midwest and beyond.

Many women love Jesus deeply, yet find themselves frustrated that connection with Him keeps slipping through the cracks of everyday life. Between family responsibilities, work, leadership, ministry, and endless to-do lists, they wonder if they're missing something everyone else seems to have figured out.

Through biblical teaching, practical encouragement, and honest stories from real life, Devan helps women discover that lasting faith isn't built in perfect conditions. It's formed in ordinary moments through simple, sustainable rhythms that keep them connected to Jesus right where they are.

Women leave feeling encouraged, equipped, and reminded that God is not waiting for a less busy season to meet them. Guilt gives way to grace, overwhelm gives way to clarity, and striving gives way to a steady, life-giving walk with Him.

“Messy Days, Mighty God is a beautiful and practical guide for women who want to grow in their faith right in the middle of real life. Devan has created a thoughtful, well-structured resource filled with meaningful prompts, Scripture, and reflection that truly help you engage with God personally. What impacted me most is how her obedience and willingness to share has encouraged others—myself included—to step forward in what God is asking of us. This is more than a devotional; it’s an invitation to grow deeper and live with greater courage in your faith.”

–Tina Langford, Women’s Ministry Leader

What Others Are Saying

“We can easily shame ourselves for not doing enough, for not being enough, particularly when we aspire to become more like Christ.  Honestly and openly, Devan discloses her own struggle to hold fast to ‘the Master Architect’ in the ‘construction zone’ of all that is real and hard about her life.  She invites us to join her in embracing both the best and the worst of ourselves and to trust that, if we partner with God in the build, we will become more of who He designed us to be.”

--Patricia Roosevelt, LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor).
