Jan Payne Pierce
Christian educator, author, and speaker, Jan is the mother of four adult children and grandmother of six. A fifth generation Texan, Jan has lived all over Texas. She graduated from Texas Tech University with a Bachelor of Science in Education and received history and dance certification from Sam Houston State University. Her teaching background includes public, private, and home school settings as well as dance and swim instruction.
After several decades in the Fine Arts, God led Jan into Christian Education where she learned about the Christian history of America. She also taught Texas History and exchanged ballet slippers for boots so she could spread the word about “God and Texas…!” a partial phrase in the last letter coming from the Alamo.
God encouraged Jan “to declare the works of the Lord” (Psalm 118:17) in Texas and start the Texian Christian Writers for others to join in the work. When not home writing, she hits the trail speaking, teaching, or researching about what else? Texas HisStory.
