Jan Loyd has been a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ most of her life. Her formal education includes a degree in education from the University of Arizona and also a degree in Bible & Theology from Moody Bible Institute.

For more than fifty years, Jan has been involved in teaching and leading women’s Bible studies, retreats, and meetings…most notably Precept upon Precept and various studies that she has personally developed.

At the beginning of the pandemic shut-downs in 2020, Jan began meeting online weekly with a group of “ZOOM Sisters” ladies, and that ministry continues currently. She had started writing her devotional blog “A Branch in the Vine,” in 2011. In recent years, a group called “Branches” has formed which meets twice monthly for fellowship, study, sharing and prayer.

Jan has also authored two books: The With-ness of our God (a bible study devotional book exploring our union with God) and Glory in Disguise (a book of biblical meditations, celebrating God’s presence in our ordinary, daily lives).
See pages listed above.

Jan retired professionally in 2016 from teaching language and writing to GED and adult ESOL students.

About her life, Jan says, “The most important thing about me is my union-relationship with my Father God through my Lord Jesus Christ. I am forever grateful to Him for His love, mercy, and grace to me and my family and friends...and the world.”

Jan has been happily married to John Loyd for more than fifty years. They have two adult, married children and six amazing grandchildren.
