Lisa Caprelli began life as a shy girl and grew up in a large and loving family in El Paso, Texas. Now the proud wife to James Endorf, Lisa cherishes her close-knit family, including Matthew, Lori, Trey, and many others who fill her life with love and joy. Today she and her kids reside in Orange County, California. Her journey reflects a deep connection to her family’s Hispanic heritage, capturing the essence of their roots and humble beginnings.
Lisa’s faith-based series “In His Image,” extends beyond her heritage. Combined with her social-emotional learning books she has reached over 800,000 students and educators, along with Inspire-Ed school author visits.
Lisa Caprelli is a Christian author of 23 books, songwriter, and keynote speaker who helps all ages remember they are God’s Masterpiece (Ephesians 2:10). Once shy, Lisa now travels from schools to churches, encouraging people to discover “the thing I do” and use it in love (1 Corinthians 13). She reminds audiences to stay rooted in the Word, because God’s Word equips us for every good work (2 Timothy 3:16–17) and lights our path. Lisa also points to Jesus’ call to receive the kingdom with a childlike heart—humble, trusting, and joyful (Matthew 18:3). Her heart is to inspire belonging, courage, and everyday obedience. She invites communities to practice small steps of service and encouragement.
