About cathee

Cathee has been a teacher, minister, writer and retreat presenter for 37 years. She has ministered in Western North Carolina, Branson, Missouri and all over Florida. Her ability to teach the Word of God in simple and practical application has forged a path for her current writing and speaking ministry which is the culmination of a life-long dream. She discovered early that a life without wonder and curiosity isn't worth living.

In the process of parenting a large family, a heavy ministry schedule and the routines of life, she lost her childlike faith for many years. Her messages center on discovering how to live with wild abandon, risky curiosity and dangerous wonder. It's the life we started out with before someone told us to grow up and get serious.

"For me, a life of purpose is one of beauty, intimacy and adventure, lived in response to the call of God and in joyful community with others."

Cathee lives in Naples, Florida with her husband, Bob.
