He doesn’t want faith to be complicated. He never intended for it to be. But many of us grew up with belief systems and in churches that made it seem so.

How in the world did fundamentalist Christian thought leaders think we could live out a “childlike” faith without big feelings, expansive imaginations, curiosity and discovery, hallmarks of being a child, after all?

And however are we supposed to “feel our way toward Him” like Acts reveals, if we fear, discount, discredit, or worse, disconnect from our feelings? This is another reason our spiritual and emotional health are inextricably intertwined along with all other aspects of our being.

How will we know when we’ve “found” Him? What does His presence feel like? Practice letting yourself believe your feelings when seeking Him with all your heart (that longing Acts mentions), and you’ll know. Jeremiah 29:13’s “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart” is a promise.

More than that, I believe He’ll meet you in a deeply personal way that you’ll experience the keen sense in your spirit of being found by Him.

He is easy to discover.
He wants to be found.
He’s not even hiding.
He’s seeking you, too.

Excerpts from my upcoming book, “Unhindered” which is at long-last, in the copy editing stage with a hopeful end of the year publication goal. May it be a companion to you as you heal from religious harm and discover life-giving relationship with God, yourself, and others. 🫶

I can’t believe it’s been a year since this gr

I can’t believe it’s been a year since this grand adventure to beautiful Colorado. 🏞️ At the end of last summer, we got the chance to meet up with dear friends from Denmark @niels_reib and @hannewad while they were visiting more friends in Denver, @alwatts22 !

From exploring Garden of the Gods with @forrest_addison_roberts shortly after arriving, to our cozy little Airbnb (with a delicious nearby ramen joint) to finally getting to spend time with our international friends, grilling with new friends, exploring quaint eateries and swanky coffee shops, riding the Georgetown Railroad, to a spontaneous trek up the highest road in North America, Mountain Evans 🏔️ 🐐 🌈 ❄️ 🧊 ☀️ it was a trip full of adventures making lifetime memories! 🫶

What made it even more special was it took 8 years of long distance friendship to arrive at this moment where the stars aligned to meet up in person! ✨ Niels and I connected nearly a decade ago over digital marketing and entrepreneurship, and ever since built our friendship through monthly happy hours via Skype. 💻 🍷 Through all of the different life seasons we’ve experienced across that time including multiple moves, work changes, relationship changes, wins and losses - we’ve continued to stay connected and present in eachothers lives. The way he’s modeled consistency in friendship and from across the globe continues to amaze and inspire me to be that kind of friend, too. 🙏

To finally get to toast, laugh, hug, meet eachothers significant others, eat pizza and hang out IN PERSON after 8 years was the best!! ❤️ I’m forever grateful all got to share in such a grand adventure, will continue to cherish the memories along with our friendship, and look forward to the next one! 🗺️

“Bullied by religion” could be an alternate ti

“Bullied by religion” could be an alternate title to the book I’ve been laboring in love to write these past 2 years - longer, if you count the life-long journaling that’s aided my quest. 😅

It’s wild - the journey of breaking free from the shackles of a religious mindset. Sweet freedom sweeps in, opening your eyes and breaking you out of chains you didn’t even realize you’d been in for so long - some of us, born in to, so we’ve known no other way.

It can feel almost too good to be true at first, discovering that so much of what you’d thought was true, was upside down. And then as you discover Jesus’s gentler and fiercely loving and just ways, you realize his ways only looked upside down to those who couldn’t see right side up. 🙃

You discover so much of what kept you bound in fear, was merely smoke and mirrors produced by even more afraid others who hid behind their important sounding rules and for awhile, forced you in to submission to them as well.

You begin to rise up in the boldness that’s your birthright. You walk toward those who they’d said were off limits, for whatever socially unacceptable reason.
You drink the wine.
Dance all the dances.
Sing all the songs.
Hug the strangers.
Give them something to talk, and hopefully, think deeply about. Something that might cause them to reevaluate why they’re so offended, and confront what they’re really afraid of.
You gently nurture your too-long-terrorized heart.
You help mend the broken ones, even your own - just as He came to do, and is still in the process of doing to undo all the harm caused by the effects of man-made religion.

You become a holy revolution against all that bullied you in to believing the lies for too long.

And you never, ever, retreat back, but live from there on out as a testimony that Truth really does set you free, and anything that keeps you bound and afraid couldn’t be further from the truth.

You live as a light shining in the darkness. And you help others along the way, turn on their lights as you go. ☀️

The 4th of July was great, but the 5th + 6th were even better. Plans with friends fell through at the last minute, which landed us unexpectedly at our beloved @hideawaycabinar just the 3 of us for some sweet summer memories. 🌲☀️ 💦 🍩 🐕 ☕️ Love these two fellas (well, four, with our cabin fur neighbors, Smokey + Bandit dog 😆) and forever thankful for our little piece of peace in Hideaway. 🖤

It is a delight to work with Kathryn LeMaster. She is a good listener who has been able to help us transition into a smaller home while still keeping the essence of our family intact.

My husband and I decided to update our house focusing on the kitchen and bathrooms. We were so impressed from the beginning with Kathryn! She was easy to work with and took our vision and made it all come together! She was extremely professional and we highly recommend her. Thanks Kathryn!! We couldn't be happier!!!

I have been doing business with Kathryn for several years, where she had played an integral role to enhance the quality and appeal of the visual impact of our furniture in TV commercial s. She independently picks products that perfectly match each commercial. She is also an absolute pleasure to work with. She is flexible when needed, and always has a positive disposition.

- LAWRENCE ZIGERELLI, PRESIDENT/CEO, FFO HOME

We asked Kathryn to create sets for a food shoot with multiple items. She created sets with for each dish and had them passed them off with the client who was out of town. She was extremely organized and methodical about how she purchased and approved each set. Not only was her work exceptional, her presence made the client feel at ease.

- DERO SANFORD, OWNER, THINKDERO

We highly recommend Kathryn. She listened to us as her clients and executed ideas based upon our design style. We had bought a new house and asked her to help us furnish, design, and style It. We appreciated her detailed drawings and ability to "show" us the vision and plan. She is quick to respond and allows for flexibility based upon timeline needs. Once deciding together on budget, she works toward that goal. She is a lot of fun to work with!

- CHRISTY H.

Kathryn assisted me in styling and accessorizing our new home. She nailed my design ideas and style based on the questionnaire and my comments. I was amazed at how she was able to match my style exactly! It would have taken me years to accomplish what she accomplished in one day. I would highly recommend her and look forward to working with her again in the future.
