Rebecca Collison

Faithful Storyteller | Pastor | Author | Spiritual Guide

Rebecca Collison is a writer who plants words like seeds—nurturing, honest, and deeply rooted in faith. As a pastor, teacher, and spiritual companion, Rebecca draws from a life steeped in rich experiences: from journalism and special education to ministry and motherhood. Each chapter of her journey reflects a deep desire to help others find hope and healing in the everyday rhythms of life.

A former newspaper reporter and special education teacher, Rebecca Collison is an ordained elder currently serving as the senior pastor at Mariner's Bethel Global Methodist Church in Ocean View, Delaware. Having served churches in Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia, she now lives with her husband Glenn on the corner of the family farm in Harrington, Delaware, and enjoys the company of family, including their six children and a growing number of grandchildren.

Rebecca’s pastoral work is shaped by the same compassion and clarity that fills her books. She holds a Doctorate of Ministry, and what truly sets her apart is the way she makes theology accessible—through storytelling that speaks to the soul. Her writing is infused with farm parables, real-life challenges, and the kind of quiet wisdom that comes from walking through both grief and grace. Her books—Groundwork, Fieldwork, and Breakfast at Rudy’s—offer spiritual nourishment for every season of life. Whether you’re wrestling with loss, longing for a sense of home, or seeking a deeper faith, Rebecca invites you into a space of reflection and renewal.

Her words don’t just tell a story—they till the ground of the heart, helping readers grow something lasting and life-giving.
