Meet Kenna Bynum

If we’ve never met, there’s something you should probably know about me.

People often assume I have it all together. (I always find that a little funny)

The truth is, I’ve lived enough life to know I’m capable of making really good decisions…and some spectacularly bad ones. I’ve been certain, I’ve been confused, I’ve trusted God, and I’ve tried to take matters into my own hands. More than once.

Somehow, through every version of me, God has remained exactly who He has always been and I think that’s why I’m so drawn to honest conversations. The older I get, the less interested I am in pretending and the more grateful I am for people who are willing to tell the truth about their lives. Because that’s where I’ve seen God do some of His most beautiful work.

BeLoved Journey grew out of that realization.

Not because I have life figured out, but because I’ve discovered that faith is so much more than just believing the right things about God. It is about cultivating a relationship with the living God. Like every relationship, it grows through time, attention, intention, conversation, trust, and simply being together.

Somewhere along the way, I think many of us get stuck being bored just learning about God when what we really want is to actually experience Him. We become so busy trying to be our definition of “faithful” and “fruitful”that we forget we’re also invited to simply enjoy His presence. We know scripture. We go to church We know Scripture. We go to church. We pray. We serve. Yet deep inside, something still longs for more. Not more information but more of HIM.

That’s the heart behind BeLoved Journey.

Whether we’re spending a day together on retreat, meeting one on one in Spiritual Direction, or sharing a conversation after I’ve spoken somewhere, my hope is never that you’ll leave thinking more highly of me. My hope is that you’ll leave more aware of God’s presence, more attentive to His voice, and more deeply rooted in your relationship with Him.

Because when we begin experiencing God instead of simply learning about Him, everything changes. Not necessarily our circumstances, but the way we walk through them. We begin to recognize His presence in ordinary moments, trust His faithfulness more deeply, and discover that He has been with us all along.

I’d be honored to meet you
