Hey there, friend!
I’m a recovering perfectionist finding God’s grace in the everyday moments of life.
Do you ever wonder if you’re not enough?
My first book, Perfected: Trading Shame and Striving for Wholeness in Christ, will help you replace the burdensome expectations and empty affirmations of this world with the truth that Christ has perfected you for all time. You can find freedom from your self-sufficient striving and self-condemning shame and rest in the finished work of Christ on your behalf.
“Due caffe latte, per favore,” my husband requests our normal order to our waitress. We sit across from each other in front of the café, at a metal table set atop uneven cobblestones. I have the perfect view to people watch. Local shopkeepers prepare their stores for the hordes of tourists to descend later. A man on a bike delivers produce to the restaurant behind us (including the biggest lemons I’ve ever seen). Occasionally, luggage wheels click down the cobblestone as a couple like us walks to the train and away from this idyllic, little town.
We unhurriedly sip our espresso and savor croissants for another thirty minutes before we, too, roll our luggage to the train station up the hill.
