Hi. I'm Monica, and I didn't know my Bible very well.
I was raised Catholic, attended Catholic high school, Catholic college, and became a missionary after graduation. Sheesh — you’d expect me to be an expert at this point, right?
Sadly, no.
I could retell classic Bible stories like Noah’s Ark, but I didn’t know how they all connected to one another.
In 2022, I became a theology teacher. Suddenly, it felt like I knew nothing. Students were looking to ME to teach them the Bible?? They were asking me questions? It was time to learn everything I could – and trust me, I did. I started listening to podcasts, devouring books, and building, rebuilding, improving, and fortifying a curriculum for my students. On the way, I fell more and more in love with Jesus and the long journey through Salvation History that he made for you and me. I felt my prayer life deepen as I got familiar with the Bible. And I felt – for the first time – totally capable and confident in navigating the Bible, putting the Sunday Mass readings in context, and talking about Scripture!
I want this for you too.
I made these courses to make what I’ve learned easy & accessible for you. The Bible doesn’t have to be intimidating and hard to navigate. If my middle schoolers can get it, so can you! Find my courses and prayer companions in the website menu – I think you’ll love them!
I’m focusing on depth over visibility in this season, so you won’t see me on social media as often as you’d expect from a small business owner. Everything here continues to be offered with care, and comes from a genuine place of my own prayer & growth with God!
Are you even qualified to teach the bible?
Fair question! I’m not a PhD or a biblical scholar. I can’t read Greek or Hebrew. But I am a Catholic who has spent years joyfully learning, praying, and teaching Scripture. I earned my bachelor’s in theology from Benedictine College, taught theology for two years in the Diocese of Columbus, and spent five years as a full-time missionary walking with high schoolers (NET and Damascus). I teach formation to the current Damascus missionaries. I’ve read stacks of books, listened to countless podcasts, and logged way too many hours nerding out about the Bible. Most importantly, everything I teach is fully Catholic and always rooted in the Magisterium. My goal isn’t to give you a seminary lecture—it’s to make Scripture accessible, alive, and fun, while staying 100% faithful to the Church.
