SHIPP FAMILY ADVENTURES
Life is a journey to savor - sometimes in hushed, timeless moments of stillness, and other times rushing like a sailboat caught in a stiff wind. I love the adventure of both. To savor is to see, be changed, and then be the change.

BraveHeart Intensive 2021
I am the seeing, thoughtful, transformative river that surges and flows to bring growth, strength, and dreams of greater seas. In wisdom I pool and ponder, laughing I chase the finger of God, in quiet places I drink beauty, and in sorrows I am filled. By God's wisdom I see solutions and by God's kindness I see you. In every drop I long to be lost in the ocean-heart of my Maker-King who called me forth in song from the rock, and called me forth from my tomb. I run to Him, for Him, and with Him - my King, my Source, my Jireh, my Joy, my All.
QUOTES OF NOTE
Some of my favorite C.S. Lewis quotes...
HUMILITY
True humility is not thinking less of yourself; it is thinking of yourself less.
FRIENDSHIP
Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: What! You too? I thought I was the only one.
VISION
I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.
