About Me
Welcome to my chaotic world. Sometimes, it’s chaotic because of life circumstances… but usually it’s chaotic because I am a creator of CHAOS. I guess I find it more interesting that way.
My Life: I love my God, I love my husband, Brian, and I love my 2 sons (Chance & Paxton). I’m a sinner. I cheated on my husband in 2006 and found myself drifting treading water in a sea of lies, but I’m learning about true redemption and am now clutching onto the life-raft that is Jesus. I’m finding my way home.

My Profession: First and foremost, I am the CEO of my home. I make sure everyone’s loved up, fed up and clothed up. My other job? I’m the Worship Pastor at Church at Bethany, a local church plant here in Portland, Oregon.
My Blog: I write about anything and everything that’s on my heart. Sometimes I’m serious, sometimes I’m not. I’ve offended many but have rarely found myself offended. I’m not a candy-coater and I’m not a truth-fluffer… not anymore, at least. I’ve been to the darkest of places and don’t ever want to return there. I have been redeemed by the Most Holy, so “fluff” is not something I’m capable of.
All that to say this: The writings on this blog are not a reflection of Church at Bethany in any way, though I hope they are close. There’s my disclaimer.

Hobbies: In my spare time (let’s be serious… I don’t really have any of that right now, but let’s just play this game anyway), I enjoy writing music, shopping, ORGANIZING, photography, golfing, hiking, pretending I’m good at gardening, spending time with my friends & family and a good cup of coffee.
