You are invited to live freely and lightly.
Are you tired? Worn out? Exhausted from the never-ending search for significance? With insight from my own spiritual journey and wisdom from God’s Word, you’ll see how life-changing Jesus’ invitation to real rest truly is.
As you adopt His unforced rhythms of grace, you’ll experience renewed purpose, deep peace, and a life of quiet confidence.
In the search for purpose and meaning in our lives, we can reach a point where we quietly ask ourselves, Is this it? Is this all there is?
God knows our thoughts and longs for us to accept his invitation to a better life, one filled with quiet confidence, true freedom, and a clear sense of our identity in Christ.
If the direction of your life is moving you away from peace, contentment, and joy, let’s discover together how God can lead you to a place of rest and renewal.
As I share my own journey and wisdom from God’s Word with you, I pray you will accept his invitation to learn the unforced rhythms of grace and find the real, lasting fulfillment you’ve been looking for.

About Emily Lex
I know all too well what it’s like to live anxious, ever aware of what other’s think, and exhausted from the never-ending pressure to prove my worth. But I also know this is not the peace-filled, abundant life we are promised as followers of Jesus. As I discovered in my own life, God offers a much better way to live.
The story held within the pages of Freely and Lightly this beautiful invitation that transforms lives.
As an artist and writer, it is my great joy to create pretty things that encourage and delight. My husband, Ryan, and I live in Gig Harbor, Washington, with our four children.
