Sarah Williams is the Grant Compliance Officer at The Warriors Refuge, where she plays a vital role in writing and managing grants that fund critical programs for homeless veterans.

Hi Welcome to Grafted: Jewish Roots of Christianity! Brittani Ramirez is my guest today. Brittani Ramirez is the heart and soul behind Scribbles and Scriptures, a whole Bible-believing Christian family dedicated to creating and sharing books that honor the true names of Elohim and the Messiah. In a world where mainstream Christian literature often omits these sacred names, Brittani and her family strive to restore them to their rightful place in hearts and teachings. While the Torah-led believers community embraces a variety of names, they frequently use "Yah" to encompass diverse beliefs in many of their works. At Scribbles and Scriptures, Brittani’s journey is one of continuous learning and growth in love for YHWH. Her mission is to provide families with wholesome, truth-filled books that they can cherish and add to their libraries. Covering a wide range of topics—from prayers and being set-apart believers to the significance of the rainbow, biblical feasts, and mainstream holidays—Brittani seeks to instill truth without adhering to man-made doctrines. With a focus on avoiding traditions rooted in human customs, Brittani emphasizes the importance of teaching children to anchor themselves in the Word and in prayer. Above all, her aim is to nurture a deep, personal relationship with YHWH through the books she creates. Brittani is a proud mother of five wonderful children and a devoted follower of YHWH. When she's not managing sibling squabbles or scrubbing the kitchen, Brittani can be found hunched over her keyboard, pouring her heart into her writing. She writes not only because it brings her joy but also because she feels a deep calling to share the beauty and challenges of her spiritual journey. Through her words, Brittani invites others to join her in exploring faith, family, and the joys and trials of living a Torah-observant Christian life. Practicing the Way: Be with Jesus. Become like him. Do as he did.
