Get To Know Shannon


From the platform, page, and podcast mic, Shannon Popkin invites you to open your Bible, drink deeply of God’s story, and live like it’s true. Shannon is from West Michigan and happy to be sharing life with Ken, who makes her laugh every day. They have the joy of rooting for their  young adult children (a daughter, two sons, and a daughter-in-law) as they each grow and follow God. They also love sharing life with their two adorable shih tzus, who (if you ask the kids) get way more airtime than they should.

Shannon’s books include, Kinda Judgy, Control Girl, Comparison Girl, and Shaped by God’s Promises. Shannon hosts the Live Like It’s True Bible podcast and has been featured on Revive Our Hearts, FamilyLife Today, Risen Motherhood, The Gospel Coalition, and Proverbs 31.
