About Carly

Carly lives on the Gold Coast, Australia with her husband Joe and their two girls: Beni and Selah. She is a passionate follower of Jesus Christ, a lover of His Church, His Word and life in general.

When she is not teaching, you can usually find her taking the kids to the park, enjoying a coffee with friends or hanging out on beach building sandcastles with her girls.

She has served in her local church for over 15 years as a vocalist & worship leader and has spent much of this time leading creative ministry. Carly also lectured at Bible College on the Theology of Worship.

The blog was launched after she took a step back from ministry a couple of years ago. She writes about that here: Why write? Why Blog? Since starting her first blog, she has begun writing two books Daughter Wait! & A pilgrimage to Worship and she is midway through blogging her personal recipe collection on Carly’s Recipe.

Inspired by all aspects of creativity & worship, she is passionate about helping people to live a Spirit-led life of worship and see them step confidently into all that God has created them for.

Her blog exists to be a reminder that God is always speaking. Her heart is that as you read through musings around everyday ordinary life you will be reminded that God is speaking to you about your own everyday ordinary life. And in that sense, you will include Him as you walk out your journey.
