About Diana Davis

Diana Davis understands the life of a ministry wife because she is one. Having served alongside her husband, she has experienced God's call in all types of church settings—small, large, rural, city, and church plants. A prolific writer, she is the author of four books as well as more than 500 published articles for leading outlets such as Baptist Press, Rick Warren's Pastor Toolbox, Let's Worship, On Mission, and Deacon magazines, along with Facts & Trends and PastorsToday.com. While she holds a master of theological studies from Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary, it is her experience as a mom and ministry wife that qualifies her to write with such authority and practicality for the needs of ministry wives. A Texas native, she and husband, Stephen, now call Florida home. She is mom to three married adult children and two practically perfect grandchildren.
