248 – Maria Francesca French – Safer Than The Known Way

(In her own words) I am a native New Yorker who is now living in the UK from Newport Beach, CA, by way of Minneapolis and the South of France. I travel often to speak and teach, but also to discover new things, people and places. I love Instagram and cocktails. I learn as much as I can when I can. I’m curious about a lot and am always asking the next question. I love my life even the parts that are sometimes hard to love. I march to the beat of my own drum.

My heart is pastoral, and I love to teach Scripture, theology and what it means to engage faith in the 21st century. My favorite word is lover and in the words of Marilyn Monroe, “I am very definitely a woman and I enjoy it.” I am married to an absolutely singular man who I deeply love and adore. European cathedrals are my happy place and beauty is my home.
