Who We Are

Hello & welcome to Matter of Faith — where we’re not just lighting candles, we’re creating moments to grow closer to God ✨

Matter of Faith was born from a simple desire: to build a space for millennials who love God, but don’t always have it all figured out. A place where faith feels real, personal, and lived out — not perfect.

What started as a vision to write blogs and cultivate a Christ-centered community took an unexpected turn during the pandemic, when I discovered candle making. What began as a hobby quickly became something more — a creative way to pair everyday moments with the presence of God.

Because let’s be honest… sometimes your quiet time looks like a journal, your Bible, and a candle lit on the kitchen counter after a long day. And that counts.

But we also believe something else:
taking care of yourself is not separate from your faith — it’s a part of it.

At Matter of Faith, we want you to experience God not only through His word, but through intentional moments of rest, softness, and care. The warm glow of a candle. The stillness of a quiet room. The luxury of slowing down and being present.

Every product we create is designed to help you pause, breathe, and reconnect — with God, with yourself, and with the life He’s calling you to live.

Because self-care is both a luxury and a necessity — and we won’t make you choose.
Because rest can be holy.
Because you deserve moments that feel like peace.

Matter of Faith is more than a brand. It’s a reminder that even in the middle of your growth, your questions, your figuring-it-out season… your faith still matters.

I’m so grateful you’re here and excited to see how God continues to move through this journey.

Welcome to the community 💜
