Welcome!
I’m Caroline Collie, and I want to help you live your one precious life the way you were created to live it!
growing things can be really hard
Especially when the thing you’re hoping to grow… is you. What if someone could send you a weekly dose of encouragement that kept you asking yourself the right questions to help you keep moving forward in life, with faith? That’s exactly what I like to do, every week.
Sign up below for my weekly email, and week after week I’ll encourage you with a funny story, a simple thought, and a powerful Scripture, each chosen to make you smile, take a deep breath, and maybe take one step closer to Jesus.
I hope you’ll join me on the journey. I’m glad you’re here.
Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” {Matt. 19:14, NIV}
If you’ve ever felt uneasy talking with your kids about faith, you’re not alone. I’ve created a simple resource to help get you started!
