Jennifer Matenaer

Hi! I’m Jennifer.


I am a graduate of Dallas Theological Seminary. My husband and I met in Bible college and continued our education in hopes of pursuing full-time ministry, each of us developing in our passions (me pursuing an MA in Media Arts & Worship with a focus in writing; my husband pursuing a Master of Theology with a focus in Old Testament). Since graduation, my husband and I have been involved in rural church revitalization. With a passion for writing and a love for people, I am thrilled to see how these giftings will come together in a small-town context. Ultimately, through writing both fiction and nonfiction, I seek to remind and encourage readers that they are God’s creative image-bearers with a story to tell.


You are creative.
You are God’s image-bearer.
You have a story to tell.
