What is Simply Grace

Who We Are

Simply Grace, established in 2024, came about through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. Long before the first episode ever aired, this platform was already in the works. At its core, Simply Grace is more than a podcast, it’s a community. A safe space for Christian youth to gather, be their authentic selves, and grow in Christ together.

The name Simply Grace is rooted in Ephesians 2:1–10, reminding us that we are saved not by what we do, but by God’s unearned gift of grace. Every step, every opportunity, every connection here is only possible because of His grace.

Our Vision

Our vision is simple, to create a space for:

Faith, friendship, fashion, and fellowship
Grace, guidance, and growth
Truth, trust, transformation, and transparency

We believe Christians can live joyfully and have fun while staying rooted in Christ. The world often paints the picture that following God means giving things up, but in reality, life with Jesus isn’t about losing, it’s about gaining so much more.

Why We Exist

Simply Grace was created for youth by youth. We believe the best way to reach the next generation is by showing them that people who look like them and sound like them are boldly serving Christ. By having authentic conversations, even the ones often avoided in traditional church spaces, we create room for truth and transformation. Topics like “appearance vs. walk with Christ” or “what Kingdom culture looks like today” remind us that the gospel still speaks to our daily lives.

At the heart of Simply Grace is the desire to make Jesus desirable to young people. Not by watering down the message, but by showing that life with Him is full, vibrant, and deeply rewarding.

What We Do

Simply Grace is an online platform that brings together a podcast, blog posts and community events, to reflect on faith, kingdom culture, and real-life experiences, all rooted in the Word of God. Storytelling is central to our mission. Each story, each conversation is a reminder of how grace threads itself through our lives.

Through our content, we aim to inspire, uplift, and connect young Christians as they walk out their faith in today’s world. Whether it’s listening to an episode, reading a blog post, or engaging with events and discussions, our hope is that every interaction feels like stepping into fellowship.

The Heartbeat of Simply Grace

We believe in authenticity. We believe in the power of shared stories. And most of all, we believe in the life-changing reality of grace. Our prayer is that this platform blossoms into a fellowship for youth everywhere, a place to ask questions, discuss and overcome struggles, celebrate joys, and draw closer to God together.

Simply Grace is more than a podcast, more than a blog. It’s a movement of young believers navigating faith, life, and culture, one honest conversation at a time.

Our Core Values

Authenticity: Come as you are, no masks, no judgment.
Transparency: None of us are perfect; we grow together.
Joy: Faith isn’t boring, life with Jesus is full and abundant.
Community: Building friendships, growing networks, learning and supporting one another.
Christ-Centered: Every conversation, event, and initiative points back to Him.
