A faith that doesn't just believe — it lives.
I'm Luann Riley. I ran from God as hard as I could, and my story didn't end there. Now I spend my days opening the Bible and telling anyone who'll listen what I'm learning — over coffee, in small groups, from the pulpit, and on the page.
Growing Up
Faith Lessons from the Book of James
Across seven weeks, walk through one of the most practical books of the New Testament and discover that spiritual growth isn't about striving harder, but letting God's Word shape every part of your life. An invitation to a faith that doesn't just believe — it lives.
Rebel. Runaway. Reject.
Luann speaks with the gentle authority of someone whose life went wrong until Jesus showed up. Her story reaches the ones who feel forgotten and worn out — calling them toward transparency, community, and hope.
A thoughtful letter, now and then.
Notes on what I'm studying, where the next book is headed, and a little life along the way. No noise — just an occasional letter worth your inbox. Join and I'll send you the first week of Growing Up, free.
There was clarity and movement in her presentation and not once did I feel the need to sigh ‘let’s keep it moving’ … Luann has a gift for presenting a needed message.Kip Gilts · District Superintendent, TXUMC
