Can you share a short bio with us so that we can get to know you better?

Cynthia Schrock is a devoted mother, author, speaker, Grammy, and Dowager (widow of the King). She joyfully calls herself a "domestic engineer" overseeing home, family, education, spiritual growth, and more. A kidney transplant recipient after two years on dialysis in her late 20s, Cynthia experienced God's miraculous provision. In September 2021, she suddenly lost her beloved husband Eric after 31½ years of marriage. She now walks the road of grief, sharing that only God can carry us through such loss, and encourages widows to embrace their identity as Dowagers—still purposeful, honoring their late husbands while living fully for the King. Passionate about celebrating others, Cynthia helps people discover their true identity in Christ and embrace the abundant life He offers. She loves God's Word deeply and delights in uncovering its personal, life-giving truths. Above all, she loves to laugh and have fun—especially with her grandchildren and family—while guiding them to discover God’s wonders and their beautiful calling. Cynthia also cherishes **bluegrass music** and all things **Mayberry** and *The Andy Griffith Show*.
