Writer & Speaker
About
Hi, I am Melanie Beerda
I am a writer and speaker located on the West Coast of Canada. I have been writing since my childhood, public speaking and serving in my community through volunteering and Church Ministry for the past 13 years.
As a former Addictions Support Worker and Youth Worker specializing in at-risk-youth, I have had the opportunity to walk with some incredible people through some really difficult seasons. I grew up in a Christian home but walked away from faith as a teenager, hitting rock bottom as a young adult, God met me in my storm of rebellion and offered me a better ending to Our story.
My heart is to bridge the gap for people who want to give up on Jesus because people have failed them. I know the difficulty of navigating the wilderness alone, of feeling like the outcast, I also know the One who is moving mountains just to talk to us.
Welcome to my neck of the woods, get ready for a wild ride!
