Author ‘Brokenwing Butterfly’

Renee Bennett’s love for people is evident in her career. Teaching for over a decade and then continuing her own studies has taught Renee that every person counts and that it’s important for each of us to continue to grow.

Through serving as a pastor for over fifteen years, Renee has valued the opportunity to communicate with thousands of young people, encouraging them to realise their own worth and to be the best they can be. Having been raised in a single parent home, Renee’s experience meant she developed an empathy with the difficulties faced by children and young people who miss out on decent relationships with either or both parents. However, the single message Renee is determined to share is that each of us can move beyond the pain faced during formative years and live a life that strengthens others.

Renee has been married for eleven years, has three children and lives in Queensland, Australia.
