Hi and welcome! I’m Carrie, married to Luke and together we have three kids aged 16, 18, and 20. I love coffee, the dog, the ocean, my hubby + kids, and books (and not necessarily in that order!). 

I became a Christian at 16 years old and have a genuine love for the deep and meaningful conversations in life. I also love to write about a broad range of biblical topics, endeavouring to be as honest as possible about my experiences, sharing both the highs and the lows of what it means to be a Christian. It’s not always easy, in fact, it’s often much harder than you might expect. Somehow, though, through it all, we find genuine strength to persevere and joy in the midst of hard things. This is the mystery of the Christ-follower, the one who will count all things as loss that they might gain Christ. 

Like DNA, a self-replicating material present in nearly all living organisms, Christians hope that their Jesus-saturated culture will take root, thrive and replicate in the lives of all those who come into contact with them. We want the light of the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ to shine brightly in and through us, for good, to the glory of God.

I hope to contribute to growing this Jesus-saturated culture by occupying just a little corner of the online space. I’m endeavouring to outwork my ‘mustard-seed faith’ through a life of intentionality: Christ-centred, spirit-led, and grace-soaked, and to inspire others to do the same.

Whether you’re new to faith, have been a Christian for a long time, or are still on the fence, I’d love to connect with you & hear a little of your journey. Drop me a message and follow me in all the usual places!
