When my soul feels heavy and the sounds of our home feel overwhelming, I sing praises. 

Today is the first day of our “Life Lived Beautifully” fashion week! You can follow along on Instagram, Periscope, and the blog each day. We will dive deep into how we can dress to bring God glory and magnify the gospel through what we wear. We will also talk about practical ways we can be creative through our clothing as well as have a few giveaways! This is going to be fun! Are you ready? Let’s worship through what we wear.

No heart, no body, no mind has ever been broken to the degree of being unfixable by the hands of our wounded Savior.
