In 1999, God found me in the middle of my emptiness and completely changed everything. Since then I have been walking with Him, learning, growing, stumbling, and being lifted back up, every single day. The Cracked Vessel with Claire is my way of sharing that walk with you.
There's no perfect starting point. God meets you exactly where you are. So just begin, pick a post, read a page, or sit with a verse. He'll take it from there.
