About

Are you secretly tired of Christianity that tastes like cardboard?

You care about your walk with Jesus so much, but deep down you're tired. You've tried the Bible studies, worship nights, prayer walks, conferences, books, & devotionals. But it still feels like you're missing something. In the rare quiet moments, your heart wonders: Have I done enough? Tried enough? Been enough to please Him?

What if God intended daily life to taste more like freedom and joy?

What if...

daily Christianity is less about religion and more about close relationship with your Heavenly Father?
God sees you as so much more than a “broken sinner, saved by grace?”
Christ's active presence and power isn't reserved for just "the godly few?”
you could be confident and sure of how God feels about you today?

Jesus invites you to an adventure -- one that transforms everyday life. Not by doing Bible studies, volunteering at church, or focusing on spiritual disciplines -- but by exploring relationship with Him till you experience His heart for you.

He can't wait to show you how His unforced rhythms of grace empower you to...
dance through life (instead of marching),
enjoy intimate, personal friendship with Him (instead of hiding), and
trust His endless love and grace for you today (instead of living overwhelmed & anxious).

Wouldn't that be a journey worth taking??

Jesus invites us to flourish in a daily adventure with Him!

Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.

CHRIST'S LIFE-GIVING INVITATION
Matthew 11:28-30 MSG

OUR MISSION...

To creatively guide believers to experience the freedom and joy of a transformed story through life in Christ

Meet your grace guide

I know from personal experience what trying hard for Jesus feels like. After I accepted Christ as a little girl, my faith walk was full of do's and don'ts, pressure to serve tirelessly...and mountains of guilt when I didn't measure up. It wasn't till God surprised my heart with the truth of grace, that the riches of Christ began to transform my story. And, what an adventure!

I'm not a life coach or pastor or counselor (though pieces of these sneak into my work). I'm an adventure guide! And to use Nouwen's words...

In the terrain of spiritual life, we need guides.
I would like to be your guide.
I hope you are interested in walking along.

Here's my heartbeat, why I write books and host retreats and explore creative ways for us to connect with Jesus...

Once the song of grace has transformed your story, you simply can't stop singing.

And you'll never be silent because you long for other tired Jesus lovers to experience freedom and joy, too. And join the beautiful song.

Besides grace, things that make my heart leap for joy are: beautiful words, iced mochas, a great story, crafting, and sneaking off to the mountains (especially with my hubby and our mischievous mutt, Buster).
