Hello there!
I’m Kalie Stier – a creative and passionate 25 year old from Southern California. I am a photographer and graphic designer with a love for people and culture, and I have been challenged to live these next 11 months serving others rather than myself.
As a creative entrepreneur, I am in the constant battle of trying to stand-out, make people hire me, to be something special. I have realized that these last few years have been solely about me. God has shown me that I have not been trusting in him completely, but have thought that I could accomplish this whole career thing all on my own. If I could just meet the right people, use the right hashtags, and “network” with the best of ’em, I too could be the next Annie Leibovitz. But God has turned that mentality inside out and upside down. He does everything, and I am just his vessel.
He has shown me that I am holding so tightly to what little I have built up on earth, rather than looking to Him for my complete and total fulfillment. He has called me outside myself to focus on His work and loving His people.
My Kingdom dream is to see hearts and lives changed for Jesus. I want to see people healed and holding tightly to the hope God gives them while living in freedom, joy and peace. My hope for this experience is that I will be used for His glory in ways I can’t even imagine.
But these are all my plans, and we know God’s are way better and bigger and will ultimately prevail. So here’s to a life on mission and a year of adventure!
Psalm 46:10 “Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!”
Matthew 6:33, “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”
