Hello! I’m Jennifer. I’m a Jesus-follower, wife, mama, writer, reader, scrapbooker, gamer, gardener and a whole lot more. I wish there were more hours in a day! Or that we didn’t need sleep….
I’ve been married to my amazing, patient, kind, supportive, wise, funny, brilliant, talented and fun husband for 16 years. We have one amazing blessing from God, our golden-haired, growing-too-fast, super-smart, super-sweet, beyond-beautiful Kara Grace.
About
Walking in Eden
I’m so glad you’ve come to walk with me in Eden. Our journey is all about learning to seek, find and abide in the Lord.
When Adam and Eve were in Eden they walked and talked with God every day. There were no barriers – no sin, no fear, no shame. There was simply perfect communion with God, Father, Friend. Then they ate the off-limits fruit and sin brought separation. Suddenly they understood good and evil – and hid from God in shame. He was still Father and Friend, but the unity was broken.
Enter Jesus! God’s whole plan of redemption is to bring us back into communion with himself. Jesus’ death ripped the veil in two: he destroyed the barrier separating us from unity with our Father! Earth today may be a shadow of what Eden was, but Eden isn’t about the trees and flowers and fruit. It’s about dwelling with the great God of the universe – beautifully and intimately, no barriers.
If your heart has ever yearned to know God more, to walk together with him on the path he’s laid for your life – if Jesus’ promise to abide in you as you abide in him makes you long for that rest and security – then you, my friend, are in the right place. I’m right here with you on this journey! God has been teaching me so much that he wants me to share with you. I haven’t “arrived”, but I’m learning. I’m so happy you’re here to learn with me!
Blog
Journey with me as I blog about faith and life. I write about everything from homemaking to art to theology – and beautiful, simple faith in a God who longs to walk with us – no barriers – as he intended in the Garden of Eden.
Templates
I’ve fallen in love with Canva. It doesn’t replace every tool a graphic designer needs, but it sure is fun! And anyone can use it. I create templates for your brand or just for fun. Social media graphics, work and life printables and templates, and more.
Art Prints
I’ve always been an artist, and finding or creating beauty is at the heart of everything I do. This is my gift from God, and I’d like to share it! I create art prints for your life and faith.
Downloads
Sometimes tools just make life easier. I create digital downloads, workbooks and and more that I hope will help you on your journey.
