We live in a world and a culture obsessed with "more." It is exhausting, depleting and will leave you broke, broken and a shadow of who God created you to be.
In June 2016 my husband and I gave away 75% of our personal possessions, sold our house and used the proceeds to pay off debt.

You can find joy and peace in "less" when the only "more" you're chasing is more of Jesus.
