“I first heard of Mandy when I was a pastor at MOSAIC in Los Angeles. Our campus pastor in San Diego kept saying, “You have to meet Mandy!” He would tell me, “She’s the future, man.” I finally got to know Mandy in an RV by the beach on a “speaker’s retreat” that turned into a surf session. I was struck by her quiet power and her depth of insight. When Mandy leads, people grow. When Mandy speaks, hearts open. When Mandy cares, our world heals. Mandy is an amazing mom, leader, speaker, and woman of faith. As I read Mandy’s book, I thought of my own mom, my wife, my sisters, and my daughters. I want them to be informed by Mandy’s bold and insightful words. I want my daughters to know they were created for the wild light and the beautiful darkness. I’m getting this book for every mom in my life.”
