Ashleigh McClain

Hey all. I’m Ashleigh. I have a heart for God, and I am doing my best to chase Him with all my might. I’ve been a Christian since I was 15 and I have grown in spurts ever since, but only since 2010 did I start chasing Him and not turning back. I encourage everyone who reads my blogs, or any of the Canvas blogs for that matter to read with an open heart and mind as we are all just instruments that God uses to deliver the beautiful Rhapsody that is His love story to us all.

Jesus is still teaching me what it means to walk with Him and abide in Him even though I was saved many years ago now. He helps me to stay in His Word and in unceasing conversation with Him, meditating on what He says to me. Sometimes He gives me Words or visions for other people. Jesus has blessed me with a son and now two granddaughters, in addition to my church family. I am more grateful to Him than is possible to put into words!

James King

I have been married to my lovely wife Callie for over four years, now. I am currently working as a structural engineer for Cornerstone Engineering, Inc. in Madisonville, Tennessee. My wife and I have recently taken on the role of youth leaders for Canvas Church, and we love it and are learning as we go.

Janean Thorne

What’s there to say about myself? I’m stubborn, independent, and tenacious to name a few things. I love my space and therefore love to be outside. I enjoy moving, breathing, and experiencing life through my five senses. I have a 4 year old son. Some people label me a single parent, but I don’t feel that way at all. I don’t have it all together, but I want to. Mostly, I want to be tight with God and live my life in a way that reflects that relationship. I want other people to take notice and want what I have. I want them to have it too. For me, where I’m from and what I do just seems irrelevant.

Paul and Lindsey Armstrong

Hey Everyone! I am Lindsey Armstrong. My husband is Paul Armstrong and I have a 2-year-old daughter named Draydee- Lyn. I love to garden, cook, and spend time with my family. I am “homemaker” as my employment and absolutely LOVE every minute of it. My family and I love being a part of Canvas Church and we have grown more closely to God since we have been there. Any way I can be involved in Canvas- I am there! My passion is for every family to have Jesus Christ as the center of their entire life. And I pray that these blogs do just that.

Ted Stolpe

Hi, I’m Ted… one of the regular Canvas Rhapsody Bloggers. I’m the kind
of person who has all the best intentions, but regularly falls short. In
fact, if you’ve ever wondered what perfect people are like, I’d be one
of the people that are farthest from. In other words, I consider myself
a regular guy who is striving to enrich my life and experiences through
Christ. If you don’t know me, you might say I’m a typical Christian…
and perhaps that’s true… but I’m always striving to be less typical.
