meet your hosts
Hey there!
We're so excited you're here and thanks for stopping by!
We're Dennis + Jacquelyn, and Kingdom Rhythms is our vision to see bodies + souls healed + thriving!
Life has thrown a lot our way, and we've learned that pulling up our bootstraps + carrying on isn't the way God designed us to heal from life's difficulties.
We can't thrive in broken bodies or with bleeding souls.
We must heal from the inside, out.
Over the course of a lifetime, God has shown us a better way.
He's reminded us that we only get one chance at life, and only one body to live in.
(p.s. we're not perfect at this and join you on the journey)
No matter how hard it can get, life can still be lived well, we can and will heal + enjoy it once again.
Together, with Him, we have discovered that the rhythms of life we choose greatly impact our well-being, both physically + spiritually.
Having well-designed strategies + routines can help us flourish, even in the toughest of seasons.
We have been designed for the abundant life Christ promises, but we must discipline ourselves for it.
This comes by way of constantly learning to slow down, be, still, and seek God in all things.
In 2017, God gave us a vision for a RETREAT.
It's clear as day in the mind's eye.
A device-free sanctuary of rest, connection + physical renewal.
A place to breathe and find restoration in the body and in the spirit.
Having travelled down a long + very difficult path ourselves, and by following His leading, we discovered that having been through tremendous hardships ourselves, we can now chaperone others into the gift of healing.
It's through grace alone that we have made it through trauma + torment, being both in poor health, and poor spirit.
We have known diagnosis + the depths of isolation life can bring.
Broken hearts are very familiar to us, and we are intimately acquainted with shattered dreams.
We can now comfort with the measure of comfort we ourselves have divinely received.
We invite you in to receive the divine gift of freedom + healing we all have access to.
Consider us friends, walking the journey with you, learning alongside of you + doing life together for a time, all the way to
healing + wholeness!
This is us

Jacquelyn
As the idea-generator + engine behind Kingdom Rhythms, Jacquelyn desires to see the vision God gave her of a retreat fulfilled through her obedience to following Him.
With a background in the beauty industry, entrepreneurship + leadership, and as a homeschooling mother of five, her life and professional experience lend to getting the vision for Kingdom Rhythms off the ground.
From managing a salon + wellness center, to a household of seven, setting a pretty table for an intimate evening with friends or cooking up a feast, her passion is in bringing people together.
Certified in whole food plant-based cooking, and with experience in facing her own health challenges, she's learned to do life by leaning into the only one who can heal soul + body and loves to bring others along for the ride.
Together
We believe wholeheartedly that God has endowed us with the gift of hospitality and we love nothing more than to have others join us around the kitchen table for hours on end pondering the deeper things of life.
We tend to accidentally convert people to loving a whole foods diet, and still find joy in it every time we do!
Learning to love real food + how to move your body for health is an exciting journey in itself!
We are acutely aware of how quickly life goes, and we are on a mission to make a lasting impact.
Curating comfy, safe spaces for people to experience Christ + friendship, while learning how to steward their one and only bodies is our passion + joy.
We would be honored to host you + already have a place prepared at the table for you to join us!
