This is not a rush-and-read book club.
This is a guided, prayerful walk through each room of your heart — with the author — as we allow God to renovate us from the inside out.
First & Third Tuesdays • 7PM CST / 8PM EST
Begins April 7 • Replay available for 7 days

I didn’t write Renovating the Heart as theory. Every room in that house carries a story from my own life — moments where God confronted me, healed me, corrected me, and reshaped me. But the real work doesn’t happen in reading my stories. It happens when you begin walking through the rooms of your own heart. That’s why the Red Bag Club exists. This isn’t about admiring metaphors or highlighting favorite quotes. It’s about opening the study guide, sitting with the questions, and allowing God to reveal what He wants to renovate in you. Twice a month, we won’t just talk about the book. We will walk through it — prayerfully, honestly, and practically.
Because transformation doesn’t come from hearing someone else’s testimony. It comes from surrendering in your own.
I’m not inviting you to watch my renovation. I’m inviting you to begin yours — and I’ll walk with you.
— Natalie
The Red Bag Club is more than a book club.
It is a growing community of women committed to deep, intentional renovation — spiritually, emotionally, and practically.
In 2026, we begin with a guided, room-by-room journey through Renovating the Heart — walking slowly through each chapter together, twice a month, live.
But this is only the foundation.
Inside the Red Bag Club, you will also receive:
• Exclusive teachings and workshops
• Guided reflections and practical resources
• Real-life application sessions
• Spiritual growth tools
• Occasional bonus experiences and guest conversations
We’re not gathering just to learn more information.
We’re gathering so our lives actually change.
We are not rushing through a book.
We are allowing God to renovate the rooms we’ve ignored — together.
Natalie’s approach is practical
and timeless, relevant to readers of every background, class, culture, and gender. Applying the principles she lays out in this book will bring healing, hope, and lasting transformation to anyone willing to do the work. I encourage you to read this book contemplatively and prayerfully. Share what you learn with a friend or spiritual mentor, and commit to journaling your reflections along the way. When you do, God will work—and your life will be transformed.

Renovating the Heart guides readers through a room-by-room journey, using the spaces of a home as metaphors for healing and purposeful living. Through candid, humorous, and heartwarming stories, readers learn how to address past traumas and transform their hearts and homes into places of beauty, intention, and meaning. My home and heart are both refocused with purpose in the spiritual value each room can hold for those who gather there. This book is an inspiring blueprint for anyone seeking true heart and home transformation—an absolute must-read!

There are books you read, and there are books that read you. Renovating the Heart is one of the latter. As I turned each page, I could feel God inviting me, not into someone else's story, but into my own rooms: the ones I have decorated with faith, the ones I have neglected out of fear, and the ones I have kept locked because they hurt too much to enter. The chapter that stopped me in my tracks was "The Battlefield of the Bedroom."

If you’re ready to stop reading about change
and actually walk through it —
this is for you.
Join the Red Bag Club and begin walking through the rooms of your own heart — with guidance, accountability, and community.
