I am Kavanaugh Williams, a Best Selling Author, Speaker, Copywriter and Blogger for this site: “Lady Kavan Writes.”
Here are some quick facts about me:
My faith journey began more than two decades ago. I have written two books including a best-selling devotional “Grief Stricken”. I operate under the moniker Lady Kavan a name which is an intimate expression of my origin. The title “Lady” is reminiscent of royalty. It is my way of reclaiming an identity that was smeared by trauma and tragedy. The second part, Kavan (a short form of my name) was only used by my parents until I started using it publicly.
I am committed to walking in my God-given authority, creativity, and grace to help others navigate complex emotions in the context of a biblically based Christian faith. As a multifaceted creative, I wear many hats; children’s ministry teacher, dance instructor, small group facilitator and poet. I attend Brampton Christian Family Church in Ontario Canada with my family.
My Why:
My first devotional “Grief Stricken” was written after I lost my first husband when he was murdered during a home invasion. I describe that season as the Great Sadness of my life. It was my absolute bottom point where it called into question everything I believed about God. Navigating those questions and that pain along with the many seasons of loss and triumph has me convinced beyond doubt that God’s grace and love have been the only constant in my life. With that, I want my writing to help others navigate their own complexities and find hope in the only One who can truly transform lives.
My book Worthy of Life and Love is a memoir about my life and the journey up to the time I wrote it. I have concluded that regardless of our past and present circumstances, we are worthy of the love and life our Heavenly Father freely gives.
