BR's bio pic (1).jpg

Hi Friends!

My name is BonnieRuth, affectionately known by my friends as BR. I am a wife, auntie, daughter, friend, podcaster, pastor and speaker. I’ve been married to my husband, Jason, for 19 years. We have three babies in heaven and have a cute dog that we spoil rotten, named Zoe. I am a woman of expressive passion, driven purpose, and a deep love for people. You will often find me connecting with friends at my favorite coffee shop over an iced coffee or dinner at my house. I love Jesus, (but I might cuss just a little) I will always shoot it to you straight, and will do anything to help someone I love. I have learned to embrace adventure and truly believe that “Every Story Matters”. My own story has been marked with the pain and disappointment of infertility and childlessness. The pages of my story are not void of purpose. That purpose has birthed within me a passion to be a voice of hope for women and couples who are walking through similar difficulties. I believe that no matter the barren places in our lives, we do not have to live broken.

 
 

My hope for the Barren not Broken community is that it becomes a place for women and couples to discover that barrenness does not define us or have the final say of all that is good. I long to see women know themselves as fully feminine, in spite of their lady parts not working. :) I want them to know they are stronger than loss, braver than unexplainable pain, and more than the diagnosis received. I want to see couples live love out, regardless of how many humans carry their last name. I want to see them determined to go after the hard things, and still hope even when they might not work out. No matter the barren places in our lives, let’s not live broken!
