Everyone struggles. Everyone fights their own battles. Maybe someone can relate. That is my hope for this blog. I want to share my story because I believe that our stories are powerful, incredible ways to bring us all together, to inspire the world around us, to bring hope, to say ‘me too’-some of the most powerful words ever spoken.

All he wants is for us to come as we are, follow him, and DO SOMETHING.
