Beth Shuey
Having walked through her own very painful, public divorce, has a God-given desire to bring a message of hope and healing. She primarily works alongside women navigating similar paths as well as couples finding their marriage in distress.
Beth founded Beautiful Ashes Ministries shortly after publishing her book Beautiful Ashes, written to “help those standing in the ashes of their past, trust that God will make it beautiful.”
She previously served as Divorce Care Leader and Care Coach at Cross Timbers Community Church in Argyle, TX., and after some time away, rejoined, continuing her efforts to help those that are stuck, get unstuck. She looks forward to advancing the kingdom through sharing her experience, strength, and hope, particularly at Beautiful Ashes Retreats and workshops that she holds throughout the year.

Jayme Dixon
One of Jayme’s greatest passions is studying and sharing the Word of God.
The scriptures had always been valuable written instructions to navigate life but now are an encounter with the Living Word Himself. Jayme has been teaching for over 20 years. Her heart is to not only teach the Word of God but to teach others how to study the Bible for themselves, becoming self-feeders that experience true spiritual formation.
She loves to share and connect the narrative story, teaching what it means to be an apprentice or follower of Jesus, learning to live in the kingdom of God. Her ability to connect the biblical narrative, Jewish foundations, and practical discipleship, while also integrating tools like neurotheology, helps her create an environment where students don’t just learn, but truly encounter Jesus through the Word.
Jayme served for 12 years on Gateway’s staff as a Care coordinator and Equip teacher. She is married, has 3 married daughters, and 8 grandchildren.
