Art for Therapy

Over the years, Megan has embraced many different forms of art. Her favorites have been painting, glassblowing, and interior decorating. While art is her passion, it has also been her therapy and place of peace, with which God has blessed her.

Her desire is to create a space where women can invite God into their brokenness, using art to achieve inner healing that sets them free and enables them to, in turn, pour into the lives of others, just as our Heavenly Father has poured into them.
