Hi, I’m Kristin, the host of What We Long For. My journey began with a deep curiosity about God and a passion for understanding how His truth shapes our lives.

My Prayer for You:

Based on John 12:32: “And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.” My prayer is that this episode helps you lift your eyes to Jesus, the only one who can truly fill the empty places in your heart. May you find lasting satisfaction in His presence.
