Faith Journey · Coming Soon
Learning, understanding, and living out God's wisdom, through faith, by His grace
We don't believe in adopting whatever culture hands us unless it's actually rooted in biblical, theological truth. That means being willing to question anything that looks or feels counterfeit, and lovingly, faithfully contributing what we're learning within our own sphere and beyond, toward the freedom that only truth brings. That posture comes from our own experience serving in local church leadership and later deconstructing what we thought faith was supposed to look like; God met us faithfully through all of it. This page is where we'll keep sharing what we're learning. For now, here's where it started.

What is Faith Journey?
Faith Journey is Juston and Atiya Warthen learning, understanding, and living out God's wisdom through faith, by His grace. That means not adopting cultural norms unless they're actually rooted in biblical, theological truth, being willing to question anything that looks counterfeit, and faithfully contributing that discernment within their own sphere and beyond. It's shaped in part by their own experience serving in local church leadership and later deconstructing what they thought faith was supposed to look like, where they found God faithful through all of it.
Is there a community for women in Faith Journey?
Yes. Women Who Seek is a Bible study community for women, hosted by Atiya Warthen, open to any woman wherever she is in her journey with Jesus.
