Hello! My name is Robyn and I want to take this opportunity to invite YOU to be a part of this grand story that God has been writing with my life. 

Jesus and I have just gotten back from a six-month whirlwind of an adventure (that I would be thrilled to tell you about in more detail: please contact me!). After overcoming mononucleosis in January, I left my home to travel to Sarasota, Florida for four months of intensive lectures and intentional community with a program called YWAM (Youth With A Mission). Bold and unashamed, we sought to break down the conventional walls that exist for contemporary Christian artists and to redefine what it looks like to use our passions for His kingdom. I then travelled with a team of 22 other world changers to Kenya, Africa and was ashamed at my surprise to find this Jesus living in the slums and playing with the orphans and pulling at my heartstrings. Due entirely to his faithfulness, I then proceeded to experience eight crazy weeks of healings, demonic deliverance, and the hand of God moving in our midst—in spite and despite of us. That's where I encountered a God so personal that He brilliantly wrecked my life and my worldview and my plans for my future.

There is nothing more exciting in this life than coming face to face with the authentic, beautiful, holy and awesome God that I am only beginning to get to know. And I can't keep quiet about it...I desire that everyone would have an encounter with the Living God! He has been speaking into my life and using a combination of my words and his truth to change lives and I believe he wants to do it on an even bigger scale. I desire to be a role model for young people and influence the next generation of writers, wordsmiths, and storytellers—those who are willing to be a part of spreading the most important story ever told. Words have power and I will not be silent. 

God has put it fiercely on my heart to return to Sarasota and spur on the good work that he has started there. (I am especially interested in becoming heavily involved with the Writing Track:) But I can't do it alone. I have found that one of the most powerful ways in which God provides for us is through the love and support of other people and I know he has placed some incredible individuals in my midst; individuals who believe change is not only possible but necessary and are sold out on God's bigger plans for this world. I'm working full-time and saving every penny but these days, God has been teaching me a lot about humility and the blessing that being surrounded by a community of like-minded believers can be. So I'm asking you to prayerfully consider supporting me in this journey. I ask that if you feel a stirring in your heart to contribute either financially or by committing to cover me in prayer…you would say yes and be the change you want to see in the world. To all of you taking the time to read this, I am eternally grateful. 

Be Blessed
