Hi, I’m Chanda!
I’m a Christian. My grandmother taught me about Jesus from a very young age. I accepted Him as my Savior and He has been a constant friend, leader, and guide throughout my life. As an adult I submitted to Him as Lord. My life’s goal to live a life worthy of the calling I have received - taken from Paul’s words in Ephesians 4:1.
I’m a wife. I grew up in New Orleans and I went to college in Texas. Midway through my freshmen year, I found the one my heart loved. Months after we completed our studies we drove down to New Orleans for a festive family wedding.
I’m a mom. We have three young adult sons. They each have their unique passions and they keep us on our toes. There’s lots of laughter and what we call “Stegall Shenanigans” when we all get together. Together is our favorite place to be.

I love this life!
I’m a teacher. My passion is to empower women to engage with Scripture so that they might be transformed by the Word. I also love to train teachers to communicate Scripture effectively – from at-home lessons with their children, to small group Bible Studies, to Sunday School, to presenting from a podium. I’ve spent many years teaching the Bible and I’ve also earned a master’s degree in Christian Education from Dallas Theological Seminary. My seminary experience showed me the need to train others with the gift of teaching to consistently develop lessons that transform.
I’m a gatherer. One of my favorite pastimes is gathering friends together. I love an opportunity to sit, listen, laugh, chat, and encourage one another. Creating safe, nurturing, biblical communities where we can grow and tend together is my happy place.
