Tanya Davis

Mrs. Davis is the mother of 7 children and greatest blessing has been to be home for her family. She was raised in Asheville, NC. Mrs. Davis and Stephen reside in Wheaton, Illinois. She has her BA from DePaul University (Biblical Counseling Focus area) and a master certification in Biblical Counseling. She has written two books- "May I Please Speak with My Father?" and "I Don't Want to Shame my Daddy's Name". Her family started a foundation-The William & Mary Davis foundation. The mission of the foundation is to help loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, to help the oppressed go free. To give bread to the hungry, and when we see the naked, to cover him. When we do this, light will break forth as the morning, and our health will spring forth speedily: and our righteousness will go before us and the glory of the Lord will be revealed (Based on Isaiah 58:6-8). The foundation gives to organizations that line up with this mission statement. They have given to organizations such as Daystar, Fox Valley Christian Action, Young Life, Orange Hands, and Women at Risk International. Tanya served on the board of FVCA for 6 years and also served as Board Chair. Mrs. Davis serves on the advisory board of WPJC.FM, and Daystar University in Nairobi, Kenya. She also does a mentoring retreat in the summer for teens called Purpose by Design at their farm in Knoxville, TN. She believes God created everyone with a purpose and it brings her joy to help others find their God created purpose.
