About The Warped Wife (with a Whole Lot of Jesus, a Lot of Sass, and a little caffeine)

 

 

​Hey y’all, I’m Hollie — the slightly warped wife behind The Warped Wife Chronicles — and I’m so glad you stumbled into my little corner of the internet! Pull up a chair, grab your coffee (cream and sugar, thanks), and let’s get to know each other.​

 

Let’s start with the basics: I’m madly in love with my husband of eight hilarious, grace-filled years. Together, we navigate life one coffee shop, road trip, and sarcastic comment at a time. He’s the peanut butter to my jelly, the calm to my chaos, and the reason I haven't turned into a full-time recluse or a Dateline episode.​

 

I’m a certified pastoral counselor, chaplain, and holder of a Doctorate in Biblical Studies — so yes, I can pray for you, counsel you, and help you find Scripture for every crisis (including the one where you burnt the toast and toddlers with glitter). I’ve spent more than 20 years in healthcare management, weaving faith into the fabric of clinical spaces. As for ministry? Well, that’s a broad calling. Ministry isn’t just a pulpit and a microphone — it’s raising kids with grace, loving your spouse through thick and thin, serving others when no one’s watching, and doing every task like you’re doing it for the Lord. Whether it’s preaching, praying, or just picking up the socks again — it all counts in God’s kingdom.​But wait — there’s more!

 

I’m also the proud mom of seven amazing humans, five all grown up and two angel babies in heaven, and a Mimi to eleven tiny tornadoes of joy and two grand-angel-babies in heaven. My tribe is my heart — noisy, loving, slightly dramatic, and wholly blessed.​

 

A few more things you should know Coffee is a love language. I don’t drink it; I commune with it. Music feeds my soul. Jazz, rock, gospel, even the occasional kazoo solo — I don’t discriminate. I love cozy restaurants, passport stamps, and good conversation. Faith and laughter have carried me through continents and chaos. From Amsterdam to Africa, no matter the culture or the language, Jesus and humor have always been my constant companions.​

 

Why “Warped Wife,” you ask? Because real life isn’t perfect. Marriage, motherhood, ministry — they can all be beautifully messy. This blog is where I keep it real. Here, we talk about love, loss, parenting adult children (a whole different sport), trusting God through storms, and yes — that time I accidentally used hairspray instead of dry shampoo (Hallelujah, anyhow!).​This is a space for the spiritually curious, the slightly frazzled, and the wholeheartedly hopeful. If you love the Lord but sometimes roll your eyes at people, and throat punched them in your head, if you’re doing your best to walk in faith but still occasionally trip over laundry piles and insecurities — you’re my kind of people.

 

Welcome to The Warped Wife Chronicles — let’s laugh, learn, and lean on Jesus together.

 

Hallelujah and Amen,
