Cheryl A. Reccord - author, speaker

Cheryl Reccord may be entering the best years of her life. After raising three kids, she’s got them (almost!) out of the nest. She gave them their wings. Now Cheryl is putting those valuable life skills to work in new ways. A native of Michigan, she followed her dream of becoming a pianist to Indiana University. There she found that music was only part of God’s plan for her life. She discovered the difference between a religion – and a relationship with the One who would lead and inspire her forever. She also met her future husband. The Reccord’s family life together has been a great teacher, and Cheryl has learned well from her experiences. She’s gained in wisdom. And now she mentors other wives and mothers – meeting with them one-on-one and speaking at women's events and conferences. Visit Total Life Impact Ministries
