Pace of Grace Community
A quiet, consistent place to care for your soul, receive from God, and serve others from a full and overflowing cup.
If you’ve been giving a lot, carrying a lot, or trying to keep up…
This is a quiet place to slow down, listen again, and take your next step with God. Together.

This Isn’t One More Thing
You’ve built something with your life. A business. A ministry. A career of coaching or leading others. Years of volunteering in the background where no one saw the cost. Maybe you’re in a newer season now — an empty nest, a recent retirement — and slowing down hasn’t felt the way you thought it would. However you got here, you’ve kept giving long after you had it to give, and something in you already knows it.
Am I being faithful, or am I being lazy? What if I fall behind? What if this slower pace costs me?
The guilt isn’t about sin. It’s about pace.
“I feel guilty because I’m really not doing much in ministry right now, but I’m in a transition place.”Sandra
If that’s familiar, you’re not alone in it — and you’re not broken for feeling it.
Most of what gets offered to tired, faithful people is more. One more thing to add to an already-full calendar. More techniques. More insight.
But insight alone doesn’t change us. Insight can be a fleeting spark…
Real formation is a lifelong reshaping of embodied habits.
Pace of Grace moves the other direction. You won’t leave a gathering with a longer to-do list. You’ll leave with less to carry and a clearer sense of Who is carrying it with you.
Why This Exists
I’ve spent years as a counselor, coach, and spiritual director — and before that, building a business helping entrepreneurs integrate their faith and their work. I had passive income, clients I loved, work I was grateful for. By almost any measure, I was living the dream.
Then, without warning, God said stop.
It took me nine months of arguing with Him to lose that argument. I spent the next year untangling myself from courses, programs, things I’d built — doing it with integrity, not walking away from anyone. And then I waited.
What slowly emerged was Pace of Grace. Not a strategic pivot — an answer to something I’d been watching for years in the people I worked with. A conversation about business or ministry would break open into something more honest: I know we should be talking about my work, but frankly I’m just so tired, so anxious, so unsure what God is even doing.
Entrepreneurs. Ministry leaders. Coaches. Helpers and servants of every kind. Paying close attention to the tip of the iceberg, while the real formation work was happening somewhere underneath, mostly unseen.
I’m not leading this from a place of having arrived. I’m living the same journey I’m inviting you into.
Here’s a simple picture that’s stayed with me for years. It’s the quiet shift that points to living and serving from overflow, instead of empty.
That quiet weariness isn’t a sign your faith is small or that something’s wrong with you. It’s how we’re made. No one was built to keep pouring out without being filled back up. Pace of Grace is a place to let God do the filling, so what spills over can bless the people you serve.
If This Feels Like Something You Can’t Justify
Many of the people who belong here are the last to give themselves permission to come. You’ve spent years showing up for everyone else. Tending your own soul can feel like an indulgence you haven’t earned.
It isn’t.
The greatest gift you give to the people around you is the gift of a person transformed and always transforming.
This is the hidden work that makes the visible work possible.
A Glimpse Inside
The community moves at a steady rhythm. It’s a place to return to, not something to keep up with. Think of it as a trellis: a simple structure that quiet, beautiful things can grow on, over time.
Each month includes:
- Prayer & Planning with God — Bring your real life — your calendar, your decisions, your work — and plan with God, rather than plan and then ask Him to bless it.
- Growing Deeper in Grace — We explore one of the spiritual practices together — simple ways to slow down and become more present to the God who is always present to us.
- A monthly practice card — one doable practice that fits an ordinary Tuesday. Not one more thing to file away in your notes app.
- A quiet online community — come and go as your season allows. Active or quiet, you fully belong.
- Glimpses of Grace — a short Saturday email, so you never lose the thread between gatherings.

What do you believe?
- We affirm the existence of one God, as declared in Deuteronomy 6:4, Isaiah 42:8, and James 2:19, who reveals Himself in three distinct persons: the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit, in accordance with Matthew 28:19 and 2 Corinthians 13:14.
- We believe in the divine nature of Jesus Christ, His miraculous virgin birth, sinless humanity, His sacrificial death on our behalf, the atonement through His precious blood, His bodily resurrection, and His ascension into heaven.
- We hold the entire Bible as God’s infallible, timeless revelation to humanity, serving as our ultimate source of truth and guidance.
- Our faith is firmly grounded in the doctrine of salvation by grace alone, through faith alone, in Jesus Christ alone.
- We acknowledge the one true Church, the body of Christ, which includes all believers in Him.
- We anticipate the resurrection of the body, with eternal glory awaiting believers in the new heaven and new earth, as foretold in Isaiah 65:17, 66:22, 2 Peter 3:13, and Revelation 21:1. Conversely, we believe in the reality of everlasting punishment for those who reject faith in Christ.

- We eagerly await the personal return of Christ to establish His Kingdom on earth.

When I face more than I know how to carry — which is most days — I come back to the same prayer…
I can’t. He can. I think I’ll ask Him.
That’s the pace of the community.
If you believe (or are ready to believe) that “God’s favorite way of changing the world is by changing me,” then we can’t wait to welcome you into the Pace of Grace Community.
