Hello! I am Joellen Hoff.

​

Walking with Jesus Christ "Every Step of the Way" is not just about the spiritual, it is about every aspect of our lives from what we eat to how we relate to each other and care for ourselves. God wants us to live joyously, without fear, and in abundance, but this is only possible when we live in step with his Word. I look forward to exploring His Word, with you and learning to apply it to every detail of life. (1 Thessalonians 5:17)

​

ABOUT THE MINISTRY:

 

Back in 2020, I felt that God had put a calling on my heart to start an internet-based ministry to help believers (and non-believers) gain a better understanding of how they can apply God's Word to every aspect of their lives. At that time, I had been a Christ-follower for around 10 years and thought, (and still do) "am I equipped to do this sort of work?" But the Lord put on my heart "go for it" and that He would guide and direct me "every step of the way" and I believe He is doing just that. He directs me toward a topic and then, gives me insights, through prayer, scripture, and meditation, to share with you.

 

Because I am not a theologian, a pastor, or a religious scholar, I communicate God's Word in simple terms. There are many great sites out there that go into depth about biblical concepts and various esoteric meanings of scripture, but not here. Here you will find easy to understand principals and applications of God's Word to apply to your daily life.

ABOUT ME:

​

I am a singer/songwriter and currently one half of the duo GI and Jo, the other half being my husband, Stephan Hoff - https://www.giandjo.com/).

 

In the late 70's and throughout the 80's, I played in rock bands that toured the western united states and I lived a "rock-n-roll" lifestyle. Somewhere in the late 90's I decided to get a "real job" and became a paralegal, but still continued to do music here and there. 

 

From my teenage years to late forties I was deeply into new age practices, including, astrology, crystals, cards, psychics, belief in the “universe” and self-empowerment. Those practices led me down a path of confusion, darkness, and anxiety. I didn't realize at the time that I was making damaging decisions based on metaphysical teachings (lies!) that would impact me nagatively for years to come! I was searching for truth and enlightenment through new age practicis but instead I found confusion, deception, emptiness, and despair.   

​

I began dating a wonderful Christian man in 2006, who is now my husband. I started to attend church with him and I wanted to know more about Jesus Christ. The more I learned the more my new age beliefs began to unravel.  My husband never pushed Jesus on me but gave me the space and grace to discover Him on my own terms. I am ever grateful to him for that!

 

Throughout my 30's and  40's I had experienced a lot of anxiety and somewhere around 2009 (I was 49-ish) I was struggling with a strong bout of it. Feeling exhausted and hopeless to be rid of it, I called out to Jesus and asked Him to help me AND He did. He immediately filled me with peace. A peace I had never known. Shortly thereafter, I gave my life to the Lord and professed through baptism to accept Him as my Savior. Since then, my life has changed immeasurably and in miraculously ways, which someday, I hope to share with you. 

 

Jesus truly is "the way, the truth, and the life" (John 14:6). He is the real deal and the all-encompassing light and I know this to be true because I existed in the darkness.

​

Blessings, my friends!
