The Suede Sofa is a space for those who desire to glorify God and faithfully run the race set before them — and to finish well, together.
We believe fruitfulness requires health in:
• spirit
• mind
• body
So, our focus is:
• spiritual growth
• renewed thinking
• wise stewardship of the body
Because healthy things grow.
And what grows, in time, thrives.
Our Core Values
• Loving fiercely – God and others
• Whole-person transformation
• Grace-based excellence and faithfulness
Faith
Our highest purpose is to glorify God by bearing much fruit.
The Suede Sofa brings faith into everyday life by uniting:
• sound doctrine
• spiritual formation
• practical obedience
Here, faith is not only believed — it is lived,
rooted in identity and shaped by calling.
Peace with Food
Peace with Food has been a decades-long journey for me — from struggle to freedom — and it is my hope that you will experience that same peace.
Peace with Food is the operating system for how we steward food and the body.
Specific eating and exercise plans are the applications.
It is built on principles —truths that endure across:
• eating styles
• fitness approaches
• seasons of life
Methods, then, are chosen according to what fits you best.
Over time, I learned that lasting peace comes from addressing the whole person:
• spirit
• mind
• body
Through sanctification, renewed thinking, and practical wisdom,
peace becomes fruit — not something to be forced.
My Eating & Exercise Rhythm
Peace with Food is not only about food.
It is also about peace with the body.
This is not about perfection.
It is about stewardship.
So, how do I eat and exercise?

Why the Suede Sofa Exists
I created The Suede Sofa as a place to live out what I have learned over many years — that fruitfulness flows from abiding, not striving.
My own journey has included seasons of deep faith, long struggles with food and body, and a growing conviction that true transformation must engage the whole person: spirit, mind, and body.
And when accurate theology is joined with a healed heart, growth, transformation, and fruitfulness become the natural result.
This space exists to help you walk that same path with wisdom, grace, and practical steps — so you are free to live fully into what God has called you to do.
Let’s stay connected.
