As Executive Vice President of Renewal Ministries, God is using her in women’s conferences both in the United States and abroad.       Jani’s first book, Fearlessly Feminine (2000), encourages women to boldly embrace God’s unique design for them as women. Her second book, His Loving Law, Our Lasting Legacy: Living the Ten Commandments and Giving Them to Our Children (2007) demonstrates the relevance of the Ten Commandments for today and offers practical ways to live them out and teach them to the children in your life.       Besides conference speaking and writing, Jani is a pastor’s wife, mother, grandmother, and former elementary school teacher. She holds a master’s degree in education. Jani is married to Rev. Dr. Raymond C. Ortlund, Jr., author, former seminary professor, and founding and former lead pastor of Immanuel Church in Nashville, Tennessee.       The Ortlunds have four married children and thirteen grandchildren, serving Christ throughout the United States and Great Britain. When Jani is not speaking, writing, or visiting family, you’ll find her in her garden, enjoying tea with a friend, or taking a long walk with her beloved husband.       The Kent Lapp Podcast Show Links:       Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/vfv2vgw       Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/y8yd2gcc       Overcast: https://tinyurl.com/y8veuoxl       Castbox: https://tinyurl.com/y8vwheqt       Youtube Channel: https://tinyurl.com/vvp3n67       Podcast Trailer: https://youtu.be/TVFsBJlbUJ4       About Kent Lapp: http://kentlapp.com/about/       Subscribe for Email Updates: http://kentlapp.com/the-kent-lapp-podcast/       Follow on Twitter: https://twitter.com/Kentlapp       Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kentlapp/       Email: [email protected]
