ABOUT ZOW
Karen “Zow” Kolzow has postured her life toward this end: to know and to be loved by God, to love others, and to know wisdom. Trials and shipwrecks in her own life and others have been the tutors of her journey. As God has brought her wholeness and freedom, her hunger has grown to see a generation living out the design of their destiny in fullness of fellowship with Him. Zow has written KnotsinAunty’s Ropeto propel young and old forward in this hope.
As an inspirer of people, Zow mentors with the intent to encourage excellence, create community, and build up individuals to walk in robust faith. By creating beautiful environments, extending gracious hospitality, ministering through her piano and artwork, and sharing insights from history and study, Zow enriches those in her sphere of influence. Those connections are playfully enhanced by outdoor adventures, competitive and strategic board games, and anything to do with food and music. She and her yappie-poo call the Great Northwest “home”.
QUOTES FOR GROWTH
Inspired to gift her niece and nephews with a booklet full of the nuggets of wisdom and hope God has shared with her throughout the years, Zow has compiled them here; the knots of truth collected on her rope of life.
When you simply want a wiser voice to give you practical advice in life or one word from the Lord to cut through the chaos and bring you up higher, open these pages. In Zow’s debut work, Knots In Aunty’s Rope, you will find hope, strength, and sure footing for the moments when you need a lifeline, or perhaps, Someone to hold onto.
I NEEDED A ROPE
I never intended to collect quotes. Knots in Aunty’s Rope was an organic assemblage of truths intertwined in my faith journey that eventually came in handy for others, too.
My primal quest was understanding how faith works: How do I go from reading about the woman who got healed to being healed myself? How do I read about a life radically transformed to being transformed myself? How do I know a historical Jesus as He was, the Ancient of Days, in my modern mayhem?
For years, my wonder wrestled. Could He really love me if He knew me? Could He possibly forgive me and remember my sins no more? Could He powerfully use me? That was my impossible dream. I had religion, but I needed Him!
I saw Jesus Christ on the pages but not in my stages. On October 27, 1990, I decided to lay everything down. If I lost it all, I deemed Him worth it! I wanted to know Him at all costs.
Astoundingly, the very next day, I lost the thing that mattered most to me. I was utterly broken and angry. My choice was to go bitter and die or to go through and cry! It was life or death. I was willing to die to know Him.

THE STORMS OF LIFE
The storms of life are inevitable. They are often filled with raging waves and unpredictable forecasts, leaving us tossed around, unmoored, and off course.
But what if someone who had made it to shore tossed you a knotted rope, pulled you to dry land, and helped you stand on your feet again? Eventually, your sea legs would strengthen, and the rope would find a new purpose; to hold down, pull forth, or help you climb to greater heights.
