  • Tina Wallace

    Tina lives in the St. Paul area with her husband, Bill, and their Sheepadoodle, Sam. She feels blessed that all three of her grown children and their families (including 10 grandbabies!) live within 30 miles, allowing her to spend time with them as often as possible. She earned her Master’s in Children and Family Ministry from Bethel Seminary in 2009, a Coaching Certificate in 2025, and has served in children, youth, marriage, and family ministries over the past 20+ years.

    Currently, Tina teaches part-time at a Christian school, leads Bible classes for public school students through LifeWise Academy, provides premarital counseling for couples, partners with a church in Honduras, and leads an annual family retreat. She became a Christian as an adult after her children were born, which ignited her passion for equipping young parents to lead their children spiritually.
