About James and Shanda

After a chance meeting that only God could have orchestrated, we have now been happily married for more than 15 years. With 4 children ages 10 and under, our house is full of life, love and noise! We would not trade it for the world! We both accepted Christ as our Savior in early childhood, and our lives have been fuller because of it. We hope to share with you the wisdom we have gleaned along the way, but also understand we still have a lot to learn as well! So we look forward to learning together with you while living This Devoted Life!
