Our story is a testimony of God’s grace and His perfect timing. We first met on our volleyball league, but it wasn’t until a game night that something sparked between us. Conversation came so naturally, and soon we were talking for hours—sharing our hearts, our childhoods, our dreams, and all the small things that make a person who they are.

At the time, Jasmine had a strong foundation in her faith, while Jacob was still discovering what he believed about God and his purpose in life. As our connection grew, so did our honesty and vulnerability. Through the way we loved, encouraged, listened, and supported each other, Jacob began to seek God on his own—curious, open, and willing to hear His voice. In God’s perfect timing, Jacob came to know Christ personally, not because of pressure, but because God was quietly and beautifully working in his heart.

We fell in love not only with each other, but with the way God was shaping us—individually and together. Our relationship continues to grow through grace, patience, joy, and a shared desire to honor God in every season.

“We love because He first loved us.” — 1 John 4:19

God took two different stories and wove them into one, and we are grateful to walk forward hand in hand, growing in love and in Christ.
