Landing Downtown followed early summer 2024, the story of our 1930’s fixer upper project in downtown. Business development but yet God’s design, the story of The Byrd’s Nest. Sometimes his path for our life is different than our own but where he guides, he truly provides. I trust him every day with this platform to share the love of God and to plant seeds of his goodness with visitors daily from around the world.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am married to my U.S. Air Force veteran husband Matthew. Together we are seed planters for our Jesus and share his love. I am a mother to many, and we are blessed beyond measure with 8 grandchildren and 1 great child. Matthew runs the family farm, and, in our downtime, we love road tripping.\u00a0

My heart is sharing the simple, southern Jesus I know and hope to encourage others through sharing my own testimony. He has equipped me to do his work, for that I am grateful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
