I'm glad you're here! If you know me, you know I'm a Texas girl born & raised-- in the 70's when the music was great, the hair was big, the clothes were funky and the days were simple. I LOVE the sun and all things outdoors; biking, skiing, walks with Sadie (my Goldendoodle-- more about her later)... on a beach or in the mountains. Tacos, chips & salsa, diet coke and sweet time spent on the Front Porch is Texas heaven to me. When I'm outdoors my heart is connected with God. His spirit feels so alive in nature and that's what my heart longs for daily. I've done a lot of life on my Front Porch and have always said, "if that Front Porch could talk, oh the stories it would tell". Stories that are a mix of sweet and salty and alot of messy but most are how Jesus met me there everyday working miracles in and around me that I couldn't see. Come sit with me on the Front Porch as I share my story of how God took all the pieces of this messy broken heart and made beauty out of ashes. (More about me and a snip-it of my story)
Join the Front Porch community and stories that say-- you are not alone.
See you on the Front Porch,
Terri Kelley

Welcome
Nothing Says Welcome and Hospitality More Than a Beautiful Front Porch!

Hey Friends,
I'm Terri... and I love the front porch. Nothing quiets my soul more than a pause on the porch with Jesus, diet coke, and nature all around me. I love porch time with friends, sharing stories and sweet treats, and at the end of the day, watching a beautiful Texas sunset that always reminds me God is right there in all that beauty and in all the chaos of this crazy life.
My love for the front porch began on my Grandparent's porch where our families gathered and talked and laughed for hours, sharing story after story. I would grow up to have my own front porch -- lined with rockers, chairs, pillows and plants, and spend many hours there over the years watching our lives unfold and change as we created our own memories... some sweet and some messy, but mostly how God met me right there every day working on a wounded heart in desperate need of a miracle.
And a miracle is just what He would do. I am not the same as I was. I am now healed and free to share my story of how the pain of abuse and abortion impacted my life so that others like me will know they are not alone. It was a similar story told by a brave woman that opened my eyes to see I was not the only one and that changed everything for me. Our stories matter. Never be ashamed of yours -- it just may become your greatest gift in helping others.

One day you will tell your story of how you overcame what you went through and it will become someone else's survival guide.
