As a writer and wife to a pastor, Ashley loves when her work builds up local bodies of Christian believers to live out their calling to discipleship and evangelism.

Below you’ll find links to resources for your church to use both general content and content from Ashley’s first book, Finding Holy in the Suburbs. Content around A Spacious Life is forthcoming. You can also request Ashley to speak to your group.

 
 

Sermon Series

If you’re interested in preaching through the content in Finding Holy in the Suburbs to help your people see how the idols of their place need repenting from and how to live on mission in their neighborhood, consider:

  • Using this 4-week Ministry Pass sermon series (available for Ministry Pass subscribers)

  • Working with Ashley to create curriculum for your church size and specific context (Contact her below for collaboration).

  • Use the free Leader Guide (below) to complement your sermon series for your small groups

 

Small Group Material + Individual Study

Ashley has developed a free leaders’ guide for Finding Holy in the Suburbs for your Fall or Spring semesters that takes the content of her book and combines it with a small group hospitality challenge.

If you’re interested in using Finding Holy in the Suburbs for a small group in a church, a Bible study group, or men’s or women’s group, contact Ashley below to get free access to the leader guide.

There is a free 5-day YouVersion bible study plan around rest, a theme in A Spacious Life, available here.

You can also get a discount on her book from her publisher (details at the bottom of the page).
