“I choose to invest my life into FamilyLife because, as I re-entered the workforce after being a stay-at-home mom for five years, I wanted my work to matter since it would take my time away from my family. I am grateful to be able to use my talents to affect the changes that God can use to save a marriage or secure the legacy of a family. It makes my work worthwhile and removes some of the guilt of being a working mom.”

–Shannon
