About Us

Kristin is a Southern Georgia belle, who graduated from UGA as a veterinarian May 2010. Carter grew up in NC, went on to seminary, became an ordained pastor, and has completed his doctorate of ministry. After retiring from full-time ministry, Carter is thoroughly enjoying being a financial advisor (and volunteering on the ministry side of things). After about a month of emailing, asking questions, and going through the steps of eharmony.com, we were full of excitement and became very eager to meet one another face to face. October 25, 2009, we met and enjoyed every minute together. We had no doubt God was going to strengthen our relationship with Him as well as with one another. Carter proposed August 9, 2010 on the boat in the middle of Lake Wylie at sunset. Kristin said "Yes" after some happy tears. We got married April 2, 2011 and what an amazing beautiful day that was! God has continued to bless us throughout our marriage. On May 18, 2017, our family grew when God gave us our son, Micah. We look forward to see what He has in store for us each and every day. We are super blessed to be serving the Lord wherever we are. God is constantly surprising us with new callings!

Digging and Building

"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." Psalm 119:105



Early one morning, Carter and I enjoyed what seemed like a private beach.  So quiet.  Relaxing.  Peaceful.  We couldn't believe that we were the only ones out there for a while...just us and a crab.  We sat and watched Mr. Crab work pretty hard as he dug and dug sand out to form his home.  He went in and out repeatedly and kept tossing his claw full of sand.  Over time, the sand was building a mound.  It's neat what God spoke to us while watching this crab.  Mr. Crab peaks, slowly inches out, and then tosses the sand. Over and over and over again.

"Are we digging and digging into scripture daily to see what God guides us to do to become more and more like Christ?  Are we learning more about God’s heart?” As we dig, we are increasing our knowledge of what scripture says like the increasing size of Mr. Crab’s sand mound.  Once we learn more, it's not only helping us grow in our relationship with Him, but it also makes it easier for us to share what He is teaching us/what we are learning with others.
