I want to take a moment to publicly honor my creative boss-partner, Pastor @withdevon .
He moves with a quiet precision that reminds me of those characters who never have to announce themselves but when they move, everything shifts. The execution is silent, but the impact is undeniable and life changing.
I’ve learned that every visionary needs an integrator. Seeing it is one thing, but bringing it to life is another. And for me, that’s not always how my mind is wired. God knew exactly what He was doing when He aligned me with someone who doesn’t just see the vision, but knows how to execute it with excellence.
FR:GVN would not be where it is or look the way it does without him. His obedience, his discipline, and his ability to build what God showed me has been a gift I don’t take lightly.
I’m grateful for you. I honor you. And I thank God for you.
Forgiveness isn’t easy, but it is essential.
“This is my blood, which confirms the covenant between God and his people. It is poured out as a sacrifice to forgive the sins of many.” — Matthew 26:28 NLT
He gave it to us first. Not because we earned it. Not because we deserved it. But because of His love.
So we forgive.
Not to say it was okay.
Not to invite everything back in.
Not to force reconciliation.
But to make space in our hearts for God to move.
To release what would harden us.
To reflect the same grace we were freely given.
Because when we forgive, we become living proof that God’s love still reaches, still covers, still restores. And for someone who knows what they did… that kind of grace can change everything.
FR:GVN
Not earned. Not negotiated. Given
@iamdariat asked me how i felt when taking these photos and capturing these moments and my immediate thought was “so grateful”.
grateful for the memories, the people, the challenges, the wins, the joy, the lessons. just grateful for it all. life has been so surreal lately, i catch myself overwhelmed by how faithful and intentional God’s been.
one day i’ll share the whole story but for now, simply be encouraged to keep going; grateful will always be a an understatement.

I want to write a long caption, but I must say….I love what I get to be apart of and I love the people I get to do it with even more.
God has been too kind! 2M views on @youtube for “Touch of Heaven” — @weareunionsound 🙌
Truly a blessing to be part of this project—filming and editing this has been wild. So excited for what’s coming next!
Thank you to our Pastors @stephenrchandler & @zaichandler for empowering us to continue to push God’s Kingdom digitally!
Not every battle looks like war…

Intentionality is probably the most exhausting, but BENEFICIAL thing I have been learning and practicing these past few months (some areas definitely better than others). That’s another standard I want to uphold this year fasho.
