Lucrecia Garcia

Lucrecia taught Bible study classes for over twenty years as a pastor's wife and she presents the gospel in a simple, yet interesting and informative manner. She strongly believes that knowledge of the Word is essential to a victorious Christian life. "Many times we are defeated because of our lack of knowledge of what God has already promised is ours." By creating Bible studies that are profound yet interesting and easy to understand, her goal is to encourage believers to read and study their Bibles, no matter how busy their lives may be. Knowledge and application of God's Word is truly the secret of their success!!!

To David, my first baby, whose God-given musical talents and dedication to the Lord, have blessed many. To my baby girl, Lisa, thank you for your strong commitment to the Lord and for all the comfort and encouragement you’ve given me through the years. To Michael, my last baby, thank you for all the joy and laughter you have brought to Dad and me when we needed them. And to all my beautiful grandchildren who give me so much unconditional love!
