Hello friends,

I am so glad you’re here!

Thanks for stopping by my website, where theology (the study of God) and anthropology (the study of people) collide. 

I’m an author, speaker, ministry leader, and sometimes-podcaster. My passion is connecting what God’s Word says with who we are. I hope you find something here that will help you apply the Bible to your life and this cultural moment. As you can see from the books I’ve written, I’m especially passionate about equipping women and girls to know who God made them to be! 

Before returning to our home state of Colorado in late 2015, my family and I served in full-time ministry as missionaries and church planters in Japan and the Czech Republic. When we moved back to the US, we planted Redemption Parker in a suburb of Denver in early 2017. My four daughters were born and raised on three different continents. We Oshmans love to travel, recreate recipes from all over the globe, and cheer for multiple countries whenever the Olympics are on.

In sum, I love Jesus and I love people all over the world. And it’s my joy to honor and serve Christ and his church whenever and wherever God allows.
