I've been keeping journals since I was in the 3rd grade and I'm so glad to share some of my most intimate life moments with you here!  Here, you'll find inspirational and encouraging stories of me and other broken people like me. We are all jars of clay who have been afflicted in every way, but not crushed...struck down by not destroyed.  Here, you do NOT have the right to remain silent, so as you read, grab your favorite snack and drink and leave a comment...share YOUR story. I can't wait to connect with you in this beautiful safe space. 

welcome to my

journal!

TO THE GREATEST MAN I’VE EVER LOVED | LIFE BEHIND MY LENS | SACHEL SAMONE

Dear Jesus, I thought I knew what love was. After all, I grew up in church. I could (and still can) recite 1 Corinthians 13 in my sleep. I knew love was patient and kind. That it kept no records of wrongdoing. I knew and still know, that it “bears all things, believes all things, […]

CHOOSING TO WAIT | THE MAN CAVE | ETHAN G.

Sachel always says “everyone has a story.” Well, I’m no blogger or writer, but if you don’t mind, I’d like to share mine. So..where do I start? I have known Sachel for almost 20 years now.  We met in summer camp…ironically a church summer camp. Instantly, I was attracted to her and I just had to […]
