Hey, there!

I'm Dianne, a follower of Christ, saved by His grace alone and devoted to serving Him in all I do. Together with my husband, Ethan, we’re blessed to raise and homeschool our three amazing children in the sunny shores of Panama City Beach, Florida. For most of our marriage, Ethan served in the military which had us living all over the country. Now Ethan serves as lead pastor of 5 Bridges Church and we’ve grown to deeply love this body of believers and beach community.

In 2014, we launched Deeply Rooted Magazine to bring encouragement to Christian women through Gospel-centered content and artful design. Though God blessed the magazine with great reach, I later felt led to step back, allowing me to pour more deeply into my family and our local church.

I had the joy of publishing my first book, A Holy Pursuit: How the Gospel Frees Us to Follow and Lay Down Our Dreams, in March of 2020. And just recently, my husband and I co-wrote a Bible study on 1 & 2 Peter, published in October 2024.

Though writing and creating for others bring so much joy, I’ve come to know that our deepest fulfillment lies not in public accomplishments but in bringing glory to God through every aspect of life—even the unseen moments. My hope is to inspire women to embrace the beauty and significance of the home, nurturing and cultivating their families with love, creativity, and intention.
