What Lies Beneath: From Lies to Love

A life lived from LIES to LOVE...

Whether through teaching, writing, leading a team, facilitating group discussions, or being a husband and father, I try to approach life with ardent intensity, calling God's design and desire out of others. But it wasn't always that way.

As an atheist for most of my life, I debated the existence of the very God I love today with that same passion and intensity. I searched for a solution to the unceasing, unquenchable desire for something greater than me. I explored multiple religions, belief systems, and cultures, only to be temporarily satisfied. Ultimately, I was left lacking true hope or understanding of who I was. I know now that God continued to pursue me, saving me from myself time and time again.

In 2002, I experienced complete love and the true fulfillment of my longing for more. It wasn't found in things or through my efforts to reach an enlightened state. This deep satisfaction was achieved only when I surrendered myself, my desires, my will, and my pride to the world's Savior, Jesus Christ.

Shortly after that moment, God revealed that He desired for me to share with the world that, although we may feel alone, unfulfilled, lacking, depressed, or abandoned, we are never too lost to be found. This is my heart and the heart of Now Found Ministries: that you would know and be known by your Creator, Savior, and Counselor, and that you would experience His undying love for you.

Imagine what your life would be like if you knew exactly who God designed you to be!

I sought for years to find myself in the opinions of others, my talents, food, relationships, grades and many other places. But I finally came to the end of myself and in that place, the girl who professed a belief in Jesus Christ learned what it meant to live a life defined by Him...lived in Him.
