PREFACE

I created ‘Made to Last’ with the intention of it being a space to share my thoughts. Thoughts about faith, about being human and about the strange, beautiful and sometimes painful experience of living in this world but not being of it. Sometimes what I write comes out as spoken word or poetry, others times as a simple, unpolished reflection.  I’ve loved stories for as long as I can remember, as a child, I made them up before I could write them down. Not much has changed since then. I still love words and the power they have to shape minds, soften hearts and even shift the tide of a generation. I write because I need to. Because when I don’t, words inevitably culminate inside of me until they eventually explode. I write because Jesus change my life with His word and I believe that He can change yours too.
