Stephanie Smith

For over two decades grocery lists and lesson plans dominated Stephanie’s life
as she raised and educated five sons. She led the startup of a PreK-12 homeschool
cooperative and served on the founding board and as an instructor of a private Christian
school. Today she is a national speaker and author on faith, parenting, and leadership.

Readers and audiences love her authentic, engaging style and significant (but
never stuffy) content. Stephanie shares cutting-edge research on human development,
insights about human dynamics—what makes people tick, and powerful Scriptural
truths. She loves equipping parents with the principles and practices to raise children
fully engaged in God’s grand story. When not wrangling words, Stephanie may be found
traveling, photographing wildlife, and teaching her growing flock of grandchildren to love
books and power tools.
