Cheryl isn’t just a health coach — she’s spent years walking alongside addicts and the homeless, helping them find hope and a fresh start. As a Christian, her passion has always been to care for the whole person — body, soul, and spirit. She’s also an author, sharing her wisdom through books that reflect both her faith and her experience.
Instead of filling your medicine cabinet with pharmaceutical drugs, Cheryl encourages you to consider the alternative, natural way to resolve health challenges as they come. Once you begin the journey of discovering how to live healthy in your body, soul, and spirit, you’ll find a new kind of freedom — one that allows you to truly enjoy life.
Now, at 72, Cheryl is still vibrant, passionate, and committed to maintaining her health for decades to come. Her message is simple: you, too, can be a good steward of the body God gave you. You don’t have to depend solely on the medical system — you can also recognize “the doctor within” that God has placed in you, because, as Scripture reminds us, we are fearfully and wonderfully made, and our soul knows it very well.
When I read this book, I was struck by the fact that there is something useful in these pages for everyone! Whether you are already leading a healthy lifestyle or you are just beginning to learn about healthy living, you will find encouragement and insight applicable to your personal health situation. This book provides the building blocks for being in control of your own health, being proactive at prevention, and being free from dependence on the system. The practical tips and resources are compiled from a wealth of Cheryl’s own personal experiences and the wisdom she has gleaned from the experiences and research of many others like her, who have made their health a priority. Cheryl’s holistic – body, soul, mind, and spirit – approach to health is life-giving and will easily connect to wherever you are in your journey. You will be wiser, stronger, and inspired after reading this book. Francine Hamp, educator, English major, coach, homeschool mom
“Grandma, Tell Me a Story is a refreshing devotional: a richly visual recounting of the antics of animals. Cheryl’s love of God, life, and animals makes this an absolutely delightful read for children and adults.”

About the Illustrator
B. Regan Greenwood is a young Christian Canadian animator who’s been blessed to work on this project while she was in high school (it kept her out of various types of shenanigans like bringing home too many pets and giving her poor mother a migraine). In her free time, she enjoys reading Doug TenNapel comics, drawing, making puppets, fossil hunting, working on group projects, discussing deep questions, and trying to learn to play the ukulele, in which she has moderate success until she tries to sing and strum at the same time. Regan has the best job in the world as an animator and can’t wait to see what doors God has unlocked for her.
I would like to introduce you to “Captured by Love”, a children’s adventure story that can be read aloud with questions for discussion and Bible truths with scripture references for parents, teachers, and children. It is a fictional devotional story illustrating Psalm 139. The setting is the rich Cariboo country of British Columbia, where wild horses still roam. A missionary/doctor must find a suitable wild horse to partner with him. There is a cattle round-up adventure, a horse chase, and a big test of the heart. Children will be drawn into this real-life adventure of taming a wild horse. This devotional is unique in that it takes the ‘natural horsemanship’ principles of training horses and applies them to our relationship with God and his leadership, love, and language in our lives. Children love horses, and they will be most open and inspired by the message of God’s sovereignty and love in their lives when they see the marvelous relationship the horse and rider have at the end of the chase.
