You Still Love Jesus.
You’re Just Tired of Trying So Hard.
You don’t have to earn your way back to God.
If church left you exhausted, your faith feels disconnected, you’re in the right place.
At Live 1:8 Ministries, we help women rediscover a faith rooted in Scripture, grounded in grace, and free from religious performance.
A gentle, shame-free first step toward reconnecting with God. No pressure. No spiritual checklists. Just a place to begin.
You Love Jesus. But Somewhere Along the Way, Faith Started Feeling Like Work.
01
You did everything you thought you were supposed to do.
You showed up, served, prayed, and tried to be the Christian woman everyone expected you to be.
02
But instead of feeling closer to God, you felt exhausted.
Maybe you’ve stepped away from church. Maybe you’re carrying questions you don’t feel safe asking.
03
And now you’re wondering how to begin again.
You still love Jesus. You just don’t want another spiritual checklist.
You Are Already Loved. Already Wanted. Already Seen.
Hi, I’m Macie. And I Know What It’s Like to Be Tired of Trying to Get Faith Right.
For years, I thought being a good Christian meant doing all the right things.
Showing up. Serving. Studying. Praying.
But somewhere along the way, my relationship with Jesus started feeling more like a performance than a relationship.
And I was exhausted.
I still loved God. I still believed. But I knew something needed to change.
That’s why I created Live 1:8 Ministries.
With a background in theology and a passion for making Scripture understandable and practical, I help women move beyond religious pressure and discover a faith that’s rooted in truth—not performance.
Because your faith was never meant to be another performance you have to maintain.
It was meant to shape the way you live.
And you don’t have to figure it out alone.
A Different Way to Grow in Faith
Rooted in Truth. Free From Performance. Made for Real Life.
Growing closer to God doesn’t have to mean adding more spiritual obligations to an already overwhelming life.
That’s why I created the LIVE Framework—a Scripture-rooted approach to building a faith that’s personal, steady, and sustainable.
L — Learn the Bible
Let Scripture become your anchor, not another assignment.

Bring your questions, doubts, fears, and needs to Him through honest prayer.
I — Invest in Memory

Let Scripture shape your thoughts, strengthen your heart, and ground you in truth.
E — Engage in Community
You weren’t meant to figure out faith alone.
Find encouragement, connection, and room to grow alongside other women.
This Isn’t About Doing More.
It’s about discovering a different way to live.
One where faith becomes something you live—not something you perform.
You don’t have to master all four pillars today.
You just need a place to begin.
You Don’t Have to Earn Your Way Back to God.
Maybe you’ve stepped away from church. Maybe prayer feels difficult. Or maybe you’re simply tired of trying to get faith right.
Beloved Beginnings: Discovering You Can LIVE Again is a free, gentle reflection experience designed to help you reconnect with the truth that you are already loved, wanted, and seen by God.
Three quiet moments. No checklists. No pressure. Just a place to begin.
You Haven’t Gone Too Far. And You Don’t Have to Find Your Way Back Alone.
Your questions don’t disqualify you.
