Christine Allen :: Family Minister
I’m a North Carolina native who moved all over the state thanks to my dads job.
I attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and received my degree in Secondary Education.
I taught high school Social Studies for eight years before I became a full time homemaker / mommy.
I’m married to an awesome guy named John and have two wonderful kids (ages 7 and 2).
A nap (sleep is good!), chocolate chip cookies, a fun family night at home with my peeps, and a movie / ice cream night with my girlfriends.
No iPod – - Im such a loser, I know. If I did have one, then it would have a variety of genres on it. Disco (love ABBA), Hard rock / Heavy metal like AC/DC, Broadway show tunes, Contemporary Christian, and Veggie Tales
What I typically do around Radiant Life:
I’m the Family Minister @ Radiant Life. I work with the childrens leaders to make your child’s time here at Radiant Life the best part of their week. The Grove rocks and our kids love it! I also work with the youth leaders to help our students experience God in a personal way. My main job is to equip and encourage parents as they guide their children towards God. When a child / student hears the same thing from parents and their Life Group leaders, at church, it has a big impact on that child / student. I’m into big impacts!
The Bible, The Great Gatsby, The Scarlett Letter, Wuethering Heights, and other 11th grade English class American Classics. Now I read lots of kids books, many of the same ones hundreds of times.
Most People Would Be Surprised That I…
met my wonderful husband in high school…in Physics class. I was in the 11th grade. He likes to say we had Chemistry in Physics. Ha, Ha! That’s one of the many reasons I love him so!
