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!

A Simple Haircut

What a change! The last time I donated my hair was right before Micah was born. (March/April 2017) My hair grows so fast, esp when I was on prenatal vitamins! Well, this summer, my hair was already down to my rear so...it was time to donate yet again. During this process,  God pointed out to me a few things in a bizarre way (but who am I to say that; we all know that God has HIS ways)…how long it would take to wash my hair, dry my hair, straighten my hair, style my hair, etc while it was so long. (Super easy to just throw on top of my head though ;)) Once I chopped it off, hair washing was much shorter, drying my hair took a lot less time, and so on. Mind you, my new hair do was still down past my shoulders.



God took me back to when it used to take forever to pray, read His word, or hear His voice, kind of like how it would take a while to get ready with my super long hair.  With time and change in my relationship with Him, things got easier in a variety of ways. My excitement peaked when opening the Bible; I can tell when He is answering my prayers better now versus Satan trying to get in the way.

Gotta love when God speaks to us in a way we didn’t expect, like a haircut. In what ways has He spoken to you lately?
