Hi, I’m Amber

I help grownups talk with kids about God’s good wisdom for sex, sexuality, and gender without panicking or hiding under the table.
I teach, speak, and write about sexuality topics parents need most while parenting my own two kids through these conversations.
Parents, you’re not alone!

Christians need parenting resources that are both theologically robust and immensely practical. In her well-researched, nuanced book, Amber Carroll has provided such a resource for parents seeking to shepherd their children toward biblically faithful sexual stewardship.

Rev. Hannah Miller King

ACNA Priest, Author

Ready to Talk is a special gift to the church: uniquely relevant, deeply practical, and refreshingly accessible. It meets parents right where they are, guiding them with wisdom and grace through the complex cultural landscape of sex and sexuality. The thoughtful definitions, insightful frameworks, and ready-to-use scripts alone are worth the price of the book.
