I think it started with the cookies…

Kindred Grace Team · 1 minute read

Getting a little homesick one day, I attempted to make chocolate chip cookies in my "easy bake." Since there were only two other girls in my apartment, and I'd made an overabundance, I decided to share my cookies. So I brought some cookies to an older gentleman who was sort of like an adopted grandpa to me. Word got out...  read their story ... Read More about I think it started with the cookies…

As I followed him out onto the porch, having no clue what he wanted, I said, “So I never did ask – what brought you to the area?” He shut the door behind us, looked me in the eyes, and said, “You did.” Inside I was an odd mixture of incredulous and slightly amused at the whole situation. On the outside ... Read More about “What brought you to the area?”

I liked what I saw…

Kindred Grace Team · 1 minute read

  In April 2008, Nat and I were chaperones on a high school trip to Illinois. I'm not sure why, but something clicked in my mind on that trip and I suddenly realized Nat was a very godly man who loved the Lord. I began to sporadically pray about Nat and wonder to the Lord if Nat could be "the one." After that trip, I took a friend into confidence and told her what I was thinking. It just so happened that around that time my Pastor was ... Read More about I liked what I saw…

What is grace?

We'd love to tell you a story... We believe there is no room for self-righteousness or for self-condemnation in hearts that have been given life by His transforming love.
