When and how did the Lord save you?
I grew up knowing about God... but not having a good grasp on how much He loved me... After college, I became really close with friends... They helped me to see that the gospel is about death to life, not about perfection, and that salvation can only by given by God - not earned. Once God opened me eyes to the depth of my sin and the depth of His love for me in Christ, I experienced an immense amount of freedom and my life has never looked the same!

When did you come to TVC and what brought you here?
I actually attended a class at TVC before ever attending a worship service here. Through the STEPS program, I really came to understand so many things about myself, about the Lord, and even about TVC... When my husband (fiance at the time) and I began intentionally visiting churches, we found ourselves back at TVC... We became members in May 2016, I served as a Preschool volunteer for a year, before joining the Preschool staff as an intern in August of 2017.
