In a world saturated with impossible standards, Christians often find themselves ensnared by shame when they fall short of perfection. The pressure to maintain appearances and hide behind false identities leads to isolation, slowly dismantling authentic connection. Shed The Shame is a response to this struggle, drawing from the powerful story in John 8, where Jesus encounters the woman caught in adultery. While others sought to shame and condemn her, Jesus offered grace, showing that God’s love transcends our failures. Rather than judgment, Jesus extends an invitation to break free from shame and embrace the healing found in His mercy and truth.

Kayla is a wife, mother of two beautifully energetic children, a Talbot Masters graduate, youth leader at a local church in Whitter, and the Director of Undergraduate Admissions at Biola University. Her educational journey includes undergraduate studies in Intercultural Studies at Biola and a master's degree at Talbot Seminary in Christian Ministry and Leadership, specializing in pastoral care and counseling. In her undergrad, Kayla developed an event called Shed the Shame for women who were wrestling with the painful effects of shame in their lives. After seeing the need for events like these, she began her educational pursuits with the hope of developing a curriculum that aids women in the journey of overcoming shame. Kayla's heartbeat is  guiding individuals through brokenness with the hope of pointing them to their Savior and speaking on taboo subjects within the Christian culture. Kayla enjoys attending musicals, drinking coffee, playing make-believe with her kids and traveling the world..although that hasn't happened since she had kids :D
