My Church

I’ve been a part of a lot of churches over the years, but there is something incredibly special about Gateway. The Gateway website is full of resources including studies, sermon series, and more. I am sharing it because I truly believe the church is changing lives, and it can change yours too.

Artwork on Etsy

I love art and I’m always creating something new. I even make some of those things available to purchase on Etsy from time to time. So if you like pretty things (or even if you don’t), feel free to check out my Etsy store. I’m always making something new!

After dealing with the sudden loss of my dear friend, I wrote the song “Somehow” in the midst of my grief. Now I want to share the song, the story behind it, and a little encouragement with you in the hopes that you will be blessed and reminded that Christ is indeed our comforter.
