KELLY'S PASSIONS

For more than three decades, Kelly Fordyce Martindale has been a steady, trustworthy voice for anyone longing for hope, truth, and a reminder that God is still tenderly at work in our everyday lives. Those who know Kelly personally will tell you she writes exactly the way she lives—honest, compassionate, determined to wrestle with the hard things, and always searching for the heartbeat of God in the middle of real life.

Her readers often say that Kelly has a way of putting into words what they’ve felt but couldn’t quite articulate. Whether she’s unpacking grief, telling a story from her own journey, or offering a gentle spiritual insight, she connects with people across generations—especially women walking through seasons of transition, loss, or renewal.

Kelly’s writing blends vulnerability, wisdom, and a touch of humor in a way that makes you feel like you’re sitting across the table from a trusted friend. Her articles, books, and devotional reflections consistently point readers back to the comfort and strength found in Scripture.

If you’re looking for encouragement that meets you where you are, or a voice that feels both familiar and deeply grounded, you’ll want to stay connected with Kelly's work. Sign up and journey with her—you’ll be blessed by every word.

She lives in Colorado with husband of 35 years, close to her son and granddog, and a bit too far away from her daughter and grandchildren. She’s the only one who isn’t a Colorado native but is transplanted from Idaho.
