    The Mary Experiment - Interview with Dianne Vielhuber

    There is so much pressure these days to do it all. This is why Dianne decided to conduct the Mary experiment. She decided to focus on being, instead of doing. This book was so helpful to me! I am so excited to share our conversation with all of you.  Hard-working. Dependable. Consistent. Reliable. These words appropriately describe Dianne Deaton Vielhuber. Raised on a small Wisconsin dairy farm, her parents instilled these and other traditional Midwest values. Dianne earned a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in Agricultural Journalism. After working in communications and marketing within agriculture for many years, she felt called to serve overseas as a missionary. After a life-changing year teaching English at a university in Almaty, Kazakstan, Dianne expected to return to the business world. Rather, God called her into pastoral ministry. Dianne earned a Master of Divinity from the University of Dubuque Theological Seminary while serving as a student pastor. Ordained an elder within The United Methodist Church, Dianne served five churches over a 20-year span. These days, Dianne yearns for new words to describe her: Grounded in God. Relatable. Practical faith journey. Assisting others to journeying with God. She writes regularly for her blog, Simple Words of Faith, where she explores finding God in our ordinary lives. Dianne journeys through her life with Hubby Rick. They have six grandchildren and Rick’s adult children. A self-proclaimed recovering over-doing Martha, Dianne incorporates Mary-like attitudes in her life through gardening, reading and exercising. They have remodeled a 110-year-old Victorian farmhouse in south-central Wisconsin. Find Dianne at her Website and you can purchase her book Here.
