Where Is God When You Need Him?

Have you ever met someone who doesn’t just talk about Jesus, but seems to truly know Him, too? Someone who has a joy that doesn’t make sense in the whirl and twirl of life?

What if you could have that joy?

Or maybe you’ve known Jesus for a long time, but lately, faith feels more like a duty than a delight. What if you could go from merely managing your faith to marveling in it again; from serving God to savoring Him?

Encounter is an invitation to enjoy Jesus right where you are. It’s a resource to help you stop longing for more and start reaching for it.

Hi, I'm Alicia

I am a storyteller and a hope dweller, an encourager and a friend. I’m the wife of that cute boy who sat behind me in fifth grade and mom to 5 pretty fabulous humans. I love words and whimsy, walks in the woods and sunsets at the beach. I like my coffee hot and my conversations deep. I believe in a God who sees us as we are and loves us anyway, a Savior who died to set us free, and a Holy Spirit who delights in sharing our steps.

I believe we’re all longing for something more… and we can only fulfill that longing in Jesus. The good news is this—we don’t have to look far to find Him. We can spot Him in the simple moments of our ordinary days—in the spilled milk on the floor and the spilled tears on our pillows, in the aches of our laments and the quakes of our laughter. But sometimes we just need a little help to see Him.

That’s why I’m here. I want to help you see Jesus more clearly and know Him more intimately. I want to help you recognize His presence right where you are so you can walk with hope wherever you go.
