Maureen Miller
Maureen Miller is a devoted wife to her husband, Mark Miller, and a mom to four wonderful children, ages 11 to 23. As a pastor’s wife, she pours her heart into her family, her church, and her community- pointing them to Jesus. Along with her ministry calling, Maureen is an interior designer and serves as the HR Manager at East Main Kitchen—a place and community she loves deeply. She brings creativity, compassion, and a servant’s heart into everything she does. More than anything, Maureen’s heart beats for Jesus. Her greatest joy is spending time with Him and helping women discover the same freedom, acceptance, and transforming love in Christ that has shaped her own life.
We will look at what was required of the woman with the issue of blood, who reached out to Jesus for healing. She pressed through fear, public shame, and religious barriers to touch Him, believing He was her only hope. Her bold act of faith brought complete healing and restoration. True faith sometimes requires courage, risk, and stepping beyond comfort to reach Jesus. Could her bold act of faith and obedience show us the way for our own healing and joy.
When Jesus turned to the woman with the issue of blood and said, 'Take heart, Daughter,' His words were filled with compassion and reassurance. For twelve long years, she had lived with pain, loneliness, and a sense of being unseen. Yet when she reached out to Him in faith, Jesus stopped, noticed her, and called her “daughter”. In that moment, he wasn’t just healing her body—he was restoring her worth and reminding her she belonged to Him. “Take heart,” was His tender invitation to let go of fear and step into the peace and acceptance that only He can give.

I am from Gambier Ohio, I have enjoyed 39 years being married to my husband Larry . We have been blessed with six wonderful children who are all married and have given me the great experience of being a Mimi to 18 sweet grandchildren. Life has been an adventurous journey. I feel so blessed by God through the ups and downs of life . The experiences of walking alongside my husband and family in ministry ,business and challenging health circumstances has caused me to know that God is a good God . My faith in him continues to grow and I am learning to know him as my Abba Father(My daddy) on this journey, called life. I am an avid Thrifter and love a good deal! I also love good relationships and heart to heart conversations about how God can take the messy in our lives and give us a message as we apply the principals of his word, and get set free from the lies and the traps of the enemy.

Is life coming at you fast? Is your plate full—and overflowing? Is this just a season, or a lifestyle? Together, we’ll explore what’s truly from God and what might be the expectations of others—or even our own. Can we experience peace in the busy? What does real rest look like?
No matter what’s on your plate—whether you’re juggling little ones, caring for aging parents, or navigating the demands of work and business—this session invites us to step back, refocus on what truly matters, prioritize wisely, and seek to honor and glorify God in all we do. We are never enough on our own—but when we walk in God’s will, He equips us, just as He prepared Esther “for such a time as this.”

Finding His Grace in Homemaking: Worship in the Ordinary

Tina Miller
Hey friends, I’m Tina. I’m so blessed to have been married to my best friend, Jonas, for 12 years. We have two boys, Braylon, 11, and Isaiah, 6. We live on a little homestead in Shreve, Ohio, where we raise much of our own food. I’m a stay-at-home, homeschooling mom with a heart for creating a peaceful, grace-filled home for our family. I love growing and nurturing things, my children, flowers and herbs, vegetables, chickens, and baby goats. In the spring and summer you’ll often find us foraging for herbs and mushrooms, and in my spare time, I’m usually curled up with a good book, wrapped in a blanket, with a mug of hot tea in hand.
As I go about my days, I often ask myself: How can I worship the Lord in the ordinary moments? How can I create a home that is peaceful and grace-filled? A place where my husband can come home after a long day at work and feel cared for and refreshed, where our children can find comfort and feel truly cherished? This is what my heart longs for. Not perfection, but a home that breathes the presence of Jesus in every corner. Together, we’ll explore simple, practical ways to turn the everyday into worship and to shape a home where His grace can be felt in the way we speak, the way we care for one another, and the way we welcome others in.

Do two walk together unless they have agreed to do so?” Amos 3:3
Walking with God…Studying the Bible… Why is it important…What does it look like…Why don’t I enjoy reading and studying…Why is it so hard to understand the Bible…Do we still hear from God today…How and in what ways? My passion and desire is for us to be able to explore ways of having a close and intimate walk with God, learning how to know Him and His story for “The Heart can not Love What the Mind does not Know!” (Quote by Jen Wilkin)
