About Diane

Diane serves as a disability ministry consultant, national speaker, and author of Unbroken Faith: Spiritual Recovery for the Special-Needs Parent (Worthy, 2018). Her work has been featured in Christianity Today, LifeWay, Bible Gateway, Parenting Magazine, Joni and Friends, Moody Radio, Orange, and Jen Hatmaker’s For The Love Podcast. 

As a mother to children with multiple disabilities, she is passionate about encouraging struggling families and equipping churches into becoming inclusive faith communities. 

Whether by diagnosis, disillusionment, a death—or the death of a dream— everyone gets “disabled” by the jagged edges of a broken planet and must reconcile faith with disappointment. Sin and brokenness may steal, kill, and destroy. But Jesus is an equal opportunity Redeemer.

Diane and her husband, Eddie, live in the San Francisco Bay Area with their two sons. Connect with her at dianedokkokim.com where she shares on life, “Wrecked, redeemed and repurposed.
