Milt & Wanda
Whom God has joined together let no man put asunder
Whom God has joined together let no man put asunder
Wanda’s journey with the Lord began as a child at Shiloh Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas where Wanda was born and raised. Wanda’s 91 year old mother, Ruby Scott continues to live in that house and teach an adult Sunday school class at Shiloh. Wanda’s mother is her spiritual inspiration. Wanda shares stories about her mother in one of her most popular inspirational presentations, In My Mother’s House. Wanda learned her caregiver role from her mother who walked together through the illness of Alzheimer’s disease with her father, Clovis Scott. Wanda says she uses her maiden name as her middle name in tribute to her mother and father and the way they raised her to love, honor and serve God.
Wanda met her husband of 40 years, Milton Bledsoe while they were attending college at Kansas University. They married three years later. Wanda would say that they had both grown up in households of faith. It would be important that they were equally yoked and of like minds in their commitment to God as they faced the storms of life in their marriage; the loss of a twin son, raising their children, and managing their careers. Each storm that they weathered brought them closer to God and to each other.
Wanda’s ministry took her into music as a church organist, accompanist and soloist in churches in Kansas, Missouri, Ohio, Seattle and California. It was the request of a friend to write a job search manual that launched Wanda’s ministry into Christian writing and inspirational speaking. Wanda discovered that audiences really responded to the heartfelt stories of faith she shared. She continues to be amazed at the ways God is using her to share His message.
