“Realize the danger of being an amateur providence, that is, interfering with God’s order for others.” - Oswald Chambers
“Faith must be tested, because it can be turned into a personal possession only through conflict.”

“Readiness for God means that we are ready to do the tiniest little thing or the great big thing, it makes no difference.”
“Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it.”
Welcome! I’m Marilette, a New Yorker passionate about finding the connections between God, relationships, and pop culture. I’m wife to Moses, a homeschooling mom to five young children, and a full-time missionary with FamilyLife. Since I was diagnosed with Bipolar 1 in 2020, I have shared openly about my mental health journey.
I believe there is more to the Christian life than hypocrisy and more to pop culture than shallow art. I frequently contribute to ThinkChristian, an online magazine publishing pop culture commentary from a Christian worldview.
I co-founded an online apparel company to raise awareness for mental health issues in the church and communities of color.
