About

My name is Gertrude Nonterah. I am an author of two books; Reign in Life, a book that was birthed out of a difficult season in my life and the lessons the Lord taught  me in that season. My other book is Falling in Love with Jesus, a 60-day devotional for young people.

This is my personal blog where I write posts focus on prayer, children's ministry, church life and personal growth. It's my prayer that as you read this blog, you will be entertained, encouraged and challenged to live your best for Jesus Christ.

Short Bio
I got born again when I was 8 years old and have never looked back since. I was born and grew up in the West African country of Ghana. I moved to the US in 2003 to go to college and I am currently finishing up a PhD in Microbiology and Immunology.

I'm married to Fred (that's us dancing on our wedding day) and we have a son called Caleb. I call them my "two boys" and I am continually thanking God for them. Growing up I knew God had a special call on my life but I never knew what ; I just loved to read the Bible and prayer time was a treat for me. I've been like that as long as I can remember.

As you read this blog, I pray you and everything that concerns you will be blessed. 

What I believe

• I believe in God the Father Almighty, the Maker of Heaven and Earth.
• I believe in God the Son: Jesus Christ who was crucified on the cross, was raised on the third day, ascended into Heaven and who is seated at the right hand of God the Father. I believe He will come back again to judge the living and the dead. I believe that believing,accepting and confessing your faith in Jesus Christ is the only way to Heaven.
• I believe in the Holy Spirit and His Work on the earth. I believe the Holy Spirit is a Comforter, a Teacher and a Revealer. 
• I believe that the Bible is the true and infallible Word of God written by men who were inspired by the Holy Spirit. I believe in the authority and power that lie in the Word of God.
• I believe in the communion and unity of believers in Jesus Christ and that each individual is commissioned as a special part of the Body of Christ.
