Dana House

Dana House, a dynamic educator, ministry leader, and speaker from Judsonia, Arkansas, has dedicated her life to serving others through faith and education. With a Master’s Degree in Family Life Education from Harding University, Dana has spent the last 13 years leading youth and children’s outreach ministries in Augusta, Arkansas with her husband, Matt, their four children—Shalom, Malachi, Julia, and Bauer—and godson, Judah, Brick, Fabien and Brandan. Together, they have touched the lives of hundreds of children, starting with services held in their homes and garages, and expanding to a traveling children’s ministry that shares the gospel through creative programs and puppet shows. Dana’s journey into writing was profoundly influenced by the miraculous survival of her youngest child, Bauer, who was born with multiple undiagnosed heart defects. This harrowing experience of battling for his life in the hospital for six months inspired Dana to share her story with others. Her passion for teaching and making complex topics accessible to everyone is evident in her work, from developing a teen risk prevention program she began at 19 to directing community plays that bring people together.
