- Bio:
- What started out as a way to share my bible journaling, turned into an Instagram community of women eager to learn more about how to study the bible and make it a habit in their life. I'm Megs and I am a Jesus follower, wife, and mom of 3 wonderful children. I was born and raised in England and now reside in Alberta, Canada. I love hot coffee, but won't say no to a nicely brewed tea either. I am passionate about encouraging women to remember they are living loved by an awesome God who has a plan and purpose for their lives.
