Welcome!

My name is Gina. I am graced.

Graced by a Savior Who loves me unconditionally and died for me. Graced by His forgiveness. Graced by His mercy, strength, and peace. Graced that He might allow me to glorify Him.

I've been graced by my husband, Captain Awesome. Our marriage is beautiful and yet flawed. I am SO thankful to be married to such a God-loving man.

I've been graced with five amazing children. Our family is beautiful, flawed and mostly goofy.

Captain Awesome was a Youth Pastor for almost ten years and then God moved us into missions and now, the Senior Pastorate at the sweetest church in the world. It has been quite the journey and always an adventure. Sometimes a desperately stressful adventure, but always an adventure! ;)

This blog is my story mostly. Stuff jotted down as I learn and grow as time goes by so quickly. Other just goofy stuff that really doesn't mean anything and is just an outlet for me. Putting words out in writing is therapeutic for me. It helps me figure out what I really think. ;) I am sure I am not alone in that way. :)
