About Mary

Welcome to my ministry home!


I'm Mary Graziano Scro, and I have a passion for helping others grow in their walk with the Lord! I spoke at my first seminar in 2000 about the Joy of Living Single, and since then I've shared at women's retreats, conferences, and small group studies.

Being gifted with the blessing/curse of an overactive, analytical mind, the Lord gave me my ministry name, Life Is Not A Formula, to remind me life is not about formulas, rules, or figuring things out. 

Life is about daily obedience to Jesus. 

John 8:32 contains an awesome promise: the Truth will set you free. But you can't forget John 8:31 - when you obey Jesus, you become His disciples. Then you know the Truth (Jesus) that sets you free.

God loves us radically and passionately. We show God we love Him by obeying Him (1 John); then we are able to experience His love more deeply...and overflow with love for others.

I've learned, often through failure, that the more we invest in our own unique relationship and obedience walk with Jesus, the more love He can express through us to a world that desperately needs Him. Then, and only then, can we become and make disciples as Jesus commanded.


And that is what the Christian life is about.
