Great quotes from Kristen:

I was afraid of the darkness inside of me.

For me, meditation looks a lot like art.

Art is less about creating a product and more a language with which I can speak and listen to God.

The beauty of God’s faithfulness was not in the fact that I got what I wanted I got what I wanted.
