Valda Goudie

Valda Goudie is a kindergarten teacher, wife for over 30 years, mother of three handsome grown boys, and a writer who loves to encourage believers in their Christian living journey. BUSY is her middle name.

Her east-coast Canadian humor permeates the biweekly posts on her blog, Val's Stage (valsstage.com), and on her monthly posts to her church’s HeartStrong blog (heartstrong.life/blog). Valda also publishes a column, containing similar content, in a local community newspaper called VISTAS, with monthly distribution to over 7500 homes in Ottawa, Canada where she currently lives. VISTAS is also published online monthly from September to June (vistas-news.ca).

An avid reader of VISTAS said of the former content editor: “Valda’s a rare specimen. She writes from the heart.”

A fellow Canadian writer penned the following:

“As she spins truth and encouragement in a cheerfully animated manner, a beautiful message appears. One you probably were not really aware you were looking for but needed to hear.” - Carolyn Cheer, author of Do You Believe I am God or Not?

You can find Valda on Instagram (@valdagoudie), where she posts twice weekly in mini-blogs called TUESDAY TICKLE and FRIDAY FUNNY, or follow her blog at valsstage.com.
