How To: DIY Home Decor Cross (Tommy Bahama Inspired)
It started months ago, looking for the perfect cross for our home. Unfortunately we couldn't find one (hobby stores, department stores, christian stores, etc), so why not DIY it!?

“It’s not what you say, it’s what you don’t say” | How Beings An Introvert Has Ruined My Relationships
I know that there's a fine line between "introvert" and asshole. I also know there's a fine line between "extrovert" and asshole.

Field Notes: Life in Argentina

The Tides Are Changing: Argentina/ Patagonia Outreach

Outreach Reveal: Argentina/ Patagonia
I sit here on a cafe' patio, with my iced coffee, journal and laptop, overlooking the ocean, in absolute awe. God is so, so good. How did I even get here? This doesn't happen. A girl like me with a broken past, with a trail of mistakes, from a crazy background, does not get this [...]
University of the Nation’s YWAM DTS: Update
I'm still in awe... If you didn't already know, I landed in Kona three days ago for an AWAKEN DTS, to train here for three months before going out to the nations and make God know.
