Bringing Scripture to Life
One verse at a time

Speaking + Teaching

Speaking on and teaching the Bible for over two decades leaves a mark. You learn how to stay with the text until it opens. I bring that into every room I am invited into.
My sessions blend careful study with vivid storytelling, thoughtful conversation, and light humor to illuminate the beauty woven into the biblical text through Hebrew interpretation. When we look at the text together, something shifts. Familiar passages open, details once passed over begin to matter, and connections emerge that reshape everything. The text holds more than most expect, and people leave with a new eagerness to explore. Many find they no longer read Scripture the same way. That is the goal.
The Old Testament is my home. I can speak on any text, theme, or book within it, and I welcome the opportunity to tailor a talk to the needs of your event.

Let’s journey together

Hebrew Language

Step into the language behind the text and discover the nuance often missed in translation.

Unprocessed: Scripture in Its Original Form

Most people read Scripture in translation. It feeds them, but something has already been processed before they ever open the page.

This workshop opens the Hebrew text so you begin to see the choices made in translation. No prior training required. No linguistics background needed. Just curiosity and a willingness to play. Hebrew invites holy play. The text holds more than one possibility, and this workshop teaches you to see them.

THE SPICES
Each session introduces a spice, a single feature of Biblical Hebrew that opens up the text in a way you won’t forget. Think of it as a superfood for your Scripture reading. Week after week, students say the spice is unforgettable.

FLEXIBLE FORMAT
Unprocessed meets your community where it is. The workshop can take shape as a single session or extend across several weeks.

“Dr. Johnson’s Biblical Hebrew class offers an engaging introduction to the language of the Hebrew Bible. I’m Jewish and learned modern Hebrew in school but this introduction to Biblical Hebrew brought my understanding to the next level. The course is structured in a way that makes even complex concepts approachable and clear. Assignments reinforce key concepts without feeling overwhelming. Dr. Johnson offers special teachings she calls “spices” that make the Hebrew language come alive. I am looking forward to taking the next class in the Biblical Hebrew sequence.” -Beth Cook, Ph. D.

INQUIRE BELOW

How We Can Be Holy 

We talk about holiness. But Scripture does something more. It places before us lives that give holiness a shape we can see and follow. When we look closely, more comes into focus. This talk examines those lives and asks the harder question: What does it mean to take the biblical call to a holy life seriously? Suitable for: church retreats, theology conferences, seminary events, adult faith formation series

Resurrection from the Beginning 

The resurrection did not start at the empty tomb. It is a story the Old Testament has been telling from the very first pages. This message follows that story through the ancient texts and asks what changes for us when we learn to read these scriptures with Easter eyes. Suitable for: churches, conferences, Easter series, adult formation
