IT’S A GLORIOUS DAY TO BE ALIVE!
Elizabeth Shreve is a self-proclaimed lover of life. She loves Jesus and loves working with people as they discover Him, worship Him with their lives, and experience this wonderful adventure called life. As a college student, she experienced God shaking up her “plan” and her perspective on everything…and she discovered His plan and perspective were much bigger and better (notice this does not say easier or more comfortable) than her plan! Helen Keller said it this way – “Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.” It has always been her goal to experience this abundant life that the Lord has given to the fullest.

Sharing Her Heart
Is Her Passion
Her unique view on Scripture, friendship and growth allows her to reach people on their level.
Elizabeth has worked with youth and women of all ages. She is continually blown away by the opportunities God has given her to be part of what He is doing in the lives of His people.
Elizabeth’s passion is studying and teaching the Word of God, encouraging women with laughter, and connecting with people at the heart level. She believes that the abundant life is simply: Jesus abiding in us, walking in the assurance of God’s sovereignty, and knowing He will use everything for our ultimate good and for His glory!

I Cried A River
From Tears to Triumph
What happens when your world falls apart? When you are healthy one day and sick the next? When you are planning a vacation one day, then without warning, planning emergency surgery?
Life can be a roller coaster ride. We must learn to enjoy what we can, scream when we must, and hold on for dear life—yes, hold on for “dear life.”
In this book, you will walk the journey of diagnosis, desperation, and defeat. But then you will turn the corner and walk the journey of faith, laughter, promises, divine visitations, awakened courage, and an unhindered destiny.
Most of all, you will be convinced that faith wins over fear—always!
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope!” Jeremiah 29:11

The Not Yets
I’ll admit it. There are times, I just don’t see it. Times when I think maybe I missed it or (should I say it) God missed it. The are times, I try to force the hands of time to move faster. Times when my impatience gets the best of me. Don’t you? But God sees what we...
Are you Overwhelmed?
Are you feeling overwhelmed? Sometimes you feel totally bowed down by burdens that you have to carry. Could you break down in tears now, if you would allow yourself. Did you know that God does not want you to carry these burdens by yourself? He asks you to give them...
YOUR “LITTLE FAITH” IS ENOUGH
Do fear and faith seem to battle it out in your mind and heart sometimes? Do the “without warning” or the “suddenly” moments shake your belief system and rattle your faith. Do they make you doubt? You are not alone; they affect me this way at times too. Both...
Heal Through the Damage
Through each trial, unbelievable failure, every disappointment and through all my heartaches, I have still found a way to keep my head up and my heart open. I still believe that there is good in the world. And I still believe there are good people in the world. And I...
Change or Choose
Over the years, I have learned some important lessons. But I think one of the main ones was to stop giving other people so much control over my life. We spend years letting others control our existence. We don’t follow our heart because someone is speaking into our...
Knock Knock
Have you ever knocked endlessly on a door? You wanted in so badly! You could hear people or things going on inside. In your heart you wanted to belong. You wanted what was inside. You seen others there, it wasn’t jealously you felt. It was just you just wanted to fit...
