Meet Kristi
A follower of Christ, and someone who deeply desires to see others pursue the heart of God, live the story He has written for them, and press on toward the upward call.
Having walked through seasons of both joy and deep refining, She has learned that God meets us in every moment—gently drawing us closer, strengthening our hearts, and faithfully leading us forward.

Here you’ll find heartfelt prayers, biblical confessions, and Scripture-based encouragement to help you grow in faith, stand firm in God’s promises, and keep your eyes fixed on Jesus through every season.

updates
Life is always unfolding, and I’d love to share the journey with you.
This is where I’ll post personal updates, ministry news, upcoming projects, and little glimpses of what God is doing behind the scenes. Think of it as sitting down together over a cup of tea while I catch you up on what’s been happening and what’s ahead.

I want to invite you to have tea with me
PULL UP A CHAIR, POUR A WARM CUP OF TEA AND STAY FOR A LITTLE WHILE.
Even though we can’t share tea together in person, I’d love to meet with you through my Heart-to-Heart Letters. Think of each letter as a quiet conversation between friends—a place to pause, be encouraged, and draw closer to Jesus.
When you subscribe, you’ll receive thoughtful reflections, biblical encouragement, heartfelt prayers, and gentle reminders to pursue His heart, live the story He wrote, and press on with hope.
So, make yourself a cup of tea, pull up a chair, and let’s meet together in your inbox. I can’t wait to share this journey with you.
