To My Son, On Your Adoption Day

“This resurrection life you receive from God is not a timid, grave-tending life. It’s adventurously expectant, greeting God with a childlike, 'What’s next, Papa?' God’s Spirit touches our spirits and confirms who we really are. We know who he is, and we know who we are: Father and children.” -Romans 8:15-16 Photo by Taylor Fiddyment Dear Coen, Today was your adoption day and oh love, do you know how to draw a crowd! Your dad and I spent more money on the food for your party t

who we are

This is the awkward part. The intros. The part where you try to sum up your entire life's existance in one short paragraph and then realize pitifully that you can.

So here goes our short summation on our short time here on this earth.

We're Matt and Bryn. We're crazy about each other and love each other so much we got married twice (never divorced...long story, but having two anniversaries means double the excuse to celebrate so winning, amiright?).

Wherever we live and whatever we do, we want to be like Jesus. He's the ultimate goal, our forever love, and the end game of it all.

Chasing God has led us through some crazy adventures. We lived in a camper and became minimalists for a few years. We've adopted, fostered, and been surrogate parents. We've moved across the country, traveled the globe, renovated a 114 year old farmhouse, and helped refugees turn a house to a home. Through it all have been amazed by how higher and greater the Lord's ways and thoughts are from our own.

These are just some of our stories, because when you see God move you can't help but shout it out in every way you know how.

Most importantly, we love hearing from you and connecting with the living and breathing body of Christ around the world.
