Teaching you how to have the abundant life Jesus offers

What makes Choosing Known different?

“I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” John 10:10b (ESV)

Choosing Known exists to teach you how you can have the abundant life Jesus offers. Those are more than just pretty words; they can be true for you. 

How do I know that? I know because that promise from Jesus used to be far from true in my life, and now it is. I have lived in that reality for many years now. And you can, too.

Welcome to the Choosing Known community!

I’m Laura-Catherine, and I’m so glad you’re here! I’m a disciple of Jesus, a podcast host, and a coach. My absolute favorite medium is one-on-one conversations. I wish you and I were meeting and having our first conversation while sitting in two big, comfy chairs, sitting across the table from each other on a restaurant patio, or sitting at the end of a dock with our feet in the water. I wish we could start our journey together by sharing stories, talking about our real lives, and discussing the words of Jesus. I want you to feel welcome and wanted here. And I’ll do everything I can to use the big medium of podcasting to create a one-on-one feel to aid our growth as fellow disciples of Jesus.
