Kirstie Marx is an energetic tennis pro, author, and homeschooling mum of 15 years. Born in England, Kirstie moved to Denmark at eight and quickly fell in love with the Danish way of life. She moved to the United States in 1993 to pursue a professional tennis career until God called her to an even more grand adventure as His child. She has pursued this calling by ministering to special needs children through tennis, sharing her gifts with fellow homeschool moms, and pouring into the lives of her husband and two daughters. She currently lives in Cary, North Carolina, with her family and faithful Labrador/Great Dane mix, Steeler.
