I’ve spent much of my life feel the pressure to be good enough for God. I’ve done all the good Christian things, expecting God to come through and bless me if I followed the rules. But in the midst of all my trying God constantly reminds me that what He actually wants for me me is not my performance but my devotion.

Devotion: to be committed to the pursuit of something; to be steadfast and faithful.

I know what it's like to feel the pressure to do more and be more in my faith. By God's grace and with the help of healthy Christian community, I've learned how to lay down the pressure of Christian performance in order to live a devoted life.

My goal here is to help you shake off the pressure and find deeper freedom in God's grace. I'm here to encourage you as you build a life of love and steadfast commitment to God and His Story—to help you set aside your need to be a good Christian and simply be in daily relationship with God.

Everything I write and teach about is to give you an opportunity to encounter God in whatever season you're in. I will equip you with tools and tips and resources to dig into God’s Word for yourself. I will encourage you to spend time with God through spiritual disciplines and practices, and I'm here to cheer you on as you live a life devoted to Him.

So whatever you need—a cheerleader, mentor, encourager, teacher, fellow faith-sojourner—I’m here to help, equip, and encourage you in your relationship with the Lord in every season.
