● About Me
I’m Tricia McCorkle. Follower of Jesus, wife, mom to three teens, musician, and Southern California high school teacher. I use this blog as a place to share my heart, especially about Scripture. I don’t have all the answers, but I try to be obedient to the Holy Spirit about what to share.
I named the blog “Pages and Stages” to reflect my years of journaling about God’s Word and my journey through life. Pages hold a special place in my heart – whether they are the pages of the Bible or the pages where I’ve recorded how those words have shaped my own story. Many of my blog posts you find here started as cursive writing on paper. (I’m old-school like that!)
As you read, picture us sitting across the table with some coffee and carbs between us. If you have thoughts about what you read, I’d love to discuss…drop a comment! I appreciate you stopping by in my little corner of the internet. God bless you today.
You are seen and loved.
