About Shannan Martin
I’m a mom, wife, and neighbor in Goshen, Indiana.
Shannan Martin is the bestselling author of several books, including Counterweights, Start with Hello, The Ministry of Ordinary Places, and the popular Substack The Soup. Shannan is a wannabe gardener, a news geek, a fighter for justice, and a thrift store stalker. She and her family live as grateful neighbors in Goshen, Indiana, where Shannan is on staff at the local community kitchen.
Once a month, I send out a free issue of The Soup. It’s usually on the topic of Jesus, food, or community. (Most likely, a combination of all three.)
