Interview With Author Stephanie Ripple
Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I love coming alongside people to help them live healthier lives whether it be spiritually, physically, mentally, or emotionally. I just published my first book on November 8, 2024.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
Off with the Old, On with the New: A Biblical Guide to Cultivate Character in Your Children was born out of my personal need for this book! I became a new Christian when my son was four and my daughter was a newborn. I was just learning how to live a Christian life myself, so I felt ill-equipped to raise my children to know and love the Lord. I read many great books on Christian parenting, but none of them were the guidebook I was looking for. I began gathering wisdom and practical application from Scripture, other parents, and during times of prayer. Eventually it occurred to me how helpful it would be for families to have it formatted into a book.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
The Bible first and foremost. Prescriptions for Nutritional Living is another book on my shelf that is falling apart from being referenced so frequently. Tales of the Kingdom is a favorite. Pilgrim’s Progress.
What are you working on now?
Right now I am working on a devotional. God gave me the idea on a walk one morning and the words began to flow. At first I thought it would be an Advent devotional, and that is likely how I will use it personally, but I am discovering each devotion is pretty timeless so it may morph into something more general.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
Since I am brand new to this, time will tell!
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Do it!!! I never dreamed about or expected to be an author, but it has been such an enjoyable and amazing journey. There have been struggles to overcome, but I have met some great people along the way and I am excited to share this resource with families.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
Be unoffendable
What are you reading now?
The Oxygen Advantage. I often invest time into learning about health and wellness.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Learning to market Off with the Old, On with the New so many families may be equipped to intentionally disciple and consistently discipline their children.
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
The Bible, my prayer journal, Tales of the Kingdom, and the most comprehensive book on foraging I could get my hands on!
