Every family has a story, and God is still writing yours!
There’s beauty in every chapter,
even the messy ones.
I’m Erin Mashaw—speaker, author, and long-time champion of marriage and parenting. My passion is helping couples and parents create meaningful connection, navigate real-life challenges, and invite God into the everyday moments that shape their homes.
Hi, I’m Erin!
For over 20 years, I’ve been helping families navigate the fun, messy, and meaningful world of parenting and marriage. I’m the COO of Birds on a Wire, where we equip moms with practical, biblical wisdom to parent with confidence, and co-author (with Jim Burns) of A Student’s Guide to Sexual Integrity. I’ve also partnered with North Point Ministries, Lighthouse Family Retreat, and HomeWord to create resources that strengthen families and spark connection.
My husband, Reece, and I have been married for 23 years and are raising four fantastic kids—Gavin (19), Kate (16), and twins Luke & Wyatt (13). We’ve lived through toddlers, teens, life transitions, and everything in between… and I can promise you, there’s hope (and humor!) in every season.
Here’s the thing:
Families grow stronger when they slow down long enough to really hear each other and invite God into their everyday moments.
That’s what I love helping people do.

This is an honest, encouraging message for anyone who’s ever spiraled into fear about the future. Erin unpacks why our minds jump to the worst possibilities, how to redirect anxious thoughts, and how to trust a God who is already in tomorrow.
With practical tools and biblical truth, this talk helps us trade fear for confidence and steady our hearts in God’s faithfulness. -
In this message, Reece and Erin show couples how to become intentional students—and enthusiastic fans—of each other. You’ll learn how your spouse’s wiring shapes what they need, how they communicate, and what builds them up.
Through humor, honesty, and practical tools, this talk helps you appreciate the differences that once felt frustrating—and leverage them as strengths. Couples will walk away with simple, meaningful ways to speak life, offer support, and see their spouse the way God uniquely designed them.

Strong marriages don’t just happen—they’re built with intention. In this message, Reece and Erin share biblical wisdom and practical tools that help couples strengthen their “us,” navigate differences with grace, and create rhythms that keep them connected.
With honesty, humor, and real-life wisdom, they’ll help you build a marriage that grows deeper, kinder, and BETTER over time. -
Talking about sex with your kids doesn’t have to feel awkward, overwhelming, or reactive. In this session, Erin helps parents understand God’s bigger vision for healthy sexuality—one that goes far beyond “the talk” and moves toward shaping character, identity, and wisdom over time. Drawing from her upcoming book with Jim Burns, she breaks down age-appropriate conversations, common fears, and the cultural pressures kids are navigating today.
Parents will learn how to build trust, keep conversations open, and talk about body, boundaries, identity, desire, and digital influences in a grounded, biblical, and shame-free way. This talk gives moms and dads the confidence to lead with truth, compassion, and clarity—starting right where they are and building on it over time. -
This talk helps parents make wise, age-appropriate decisions about technology, phones and social media while keeping faith and connection at the center.
Erin shares practical ways to introduce new freedoms, set healthy boundaries, and even use technology as a bridge—not a barrier—to deeper conversations.
Parents will walk away with tools that strengthen trust, nurture spiritual growth, and keep their family rooted in what matters most.
