Grace Thompson

Retired Teacher & Grandma of Seven

Grace Thompson is a beloved Bible teacher who started leading women's Bible studies in her living room fifteen years ago. As a former elementary school teacher and mother of three, Grace understands the challenges of maintaining faith while juggling life's responsibilities. Her warm, conversational teaching style makes everyone feel welcome, whether they've been studying Scripture for years or just opened a Bible for the first time. Grace believes that faith is best explored in community, with honest questions and shared experiences.

"The beauty of Scripture is that it meets us where we are—in our joy, our pain, our questions—and gently leads us toward wholeness and hope."
