“Wish it could be easy / Why is life so messy / Why is pain a part of us / But You’re here / You’re real / I know I can trust You”
“Even when it hurts / Even when it’s hard / Even when it all just falls apart / I will run to you / Cuz I know that you are / Lover of my soul, healer of my scars / You steady my heart”
I love this song. Steady My Heart by @KariJobe (Live Acoustic Performance)
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.
