The story of No Ordinary Child: Unlocking the Leader Within Your Child As a high schooler, I was never getting married or having babies. Feminism had its hooks in me and my sights were set on greater things than wasting my life as a frumpy housewife with snotty-nosed kids. When Jesus broke into my dark world and made Himself real to me at 17, a sudden transformation began. A year later, I was married. Four years later, my firstborn arrived. Then another and another until our quiver was filled

with five precious little boys. As a new mommy, the story of Moses’ birth to a captive Hebrew couple in Egypt was profoundly highlighted to me. There wasn’t a worse time in history to be expecting a child due to the evil king’s decree, and yet, his parents, Amram and Jochabed, didn’t falter in their faith, but trusted God to rescue their baby boy from certain execution. Hebrews 11:23 tells us, ‘by faith, Moses’ parents hid him for three months after he was born, because they saw that he was no ordinary child and they were not afraid of the king’s edict.”

This passage put steel in my backbone to become No Ordinary Parent. I, too, would hide my babies for a season and refuse to be afraid. I deeply longed for more than the mainstream, mediocre parenting methods offered to me by society and religious culture. My Bible became my parenting manual and I set my sites on raising Daniels – men who would stand head and shoulders above their shallow peers – deliverers in their generation.

As I navigated and pioneered this new and unexpected mothering adventure, I poured my thoughts on paper. Journaling my deep reflections

and faith-filled longings became my passion. No Ordinary Child: Unlocking the Leader Within Your Child is the result.

**********

Liz, wife and Mom from Washington, D. C. says about N.O.C., “LOVE the book! I’m devouring it. My heart pounds all over every page. It’s food for the hungry, medicine for the sick, and hope for the hopeless. A real shot in the arm for what ails us. Denise, you tell it like it is. You’re a modern voice with an ancient message, and you’ve designed a roadmap for every suburban Christian mom to get them where they need to go!”

********************

Today I’m living in the fulfillment of the dream God put in my heart surrounded by my close-knit, supportive, faith-filled family. I actively

engage my miraculous home-educated grandchildren and I’m here to help YOU get the same results. I know where you live. I see your overwhelming, never-done to-do list. I know the bills left at the end of your money. I know the marriage struggles, the sleepless nights and the desperate sense of inadequacy you often feel as a Mama. But more importantly, I know the inestimable potential within your child. Yes, YOURS. Mama, you are thinking too small when you consider the destiny of your child. I know that in your babies’ DNA are seeds of promise too big for you to humanly comprehend. This is not a book of rules or a list of more stuff you have to do. Instead of a heavy yoke, you will find freedom. Instead of white picket fence illusions, you’ll get authenticity. Trade-in your overwhelm for an infusion of power and realize the transformation
