The Millers and the Turanskys met in 1988 when Ed and Scott began pastoring together. They continued to work and enjoy life together through the 90’s. Their two families grew in friendship as they shared homeschooling and ministry. Their commitment to Christian community has brought them on a number of adventures including a two-family RV trip for 30 days around the United States, a joint trip to Kenya, East Africa, and numerous ministry and vacation experiences.

Scott Turansky and Joanne Miller began teaching and writing together in the early 90’s with their first book coming out in 1996. That book, now entitled, Home Improvement, the Parenting Book You Can Read To Your Kids, has become a treasured book in many families.
