Hello, friend
A little about me
Hi! My name is Ellie, and I'm humbled that you have made your way here.
I am a first-time mom seeking to use every moment to glorify God. I am also a first-time mom looking for resources and tools to help me do that. And, lastly, I am a first-time mom with an elementary school teacher's brain and background.
When God gave me the gift of motherhood, I was prepped with the knowledge of my purpose: to raise children in such a way that models and sings of the greatness and all-satisfying nature of God. Then the newborn stage hit. I was running on empty, seeking channels to apply truth to this season, and struggling to find a space where my specific stage of motherhood was addressed and resources were readily available.
That's why I wanted to create it.
I am 100% not qualified to give motherhood advice, but one of the greatest avenues of grace in my life is the generations of faithful Christian women who stand behind me. God has used gospel-centered mothers to pour into me, and I want to share what they have taught me.
Join me as I seek to create a space where biblically accurate, applicable, and God-glorifying resources can be shared and enjoyed.
What you'll find here
Here you'll find a collection of my own writing alongside writing from women I deeply trust. After every post, you'll find a list of recommended resources connected to the topic. The content includes practical discipleship tools, season-specific liturgies, encouragement toward personal holiness, and more.
