Peyton Garland is a writer and coffee shop hopper who loves connecting people to a grace much bigger than expected. Her debut book, Not so by Myself, was promoted by Former White House Press Secretary Dana Perino and endorsed by TED Talk speaker Hannah Brencher. Meanwhile, her most recent publication, Tired, Hungry, & Kinda Faithful, calls weary Christians to chase God’s beauty from ash.

Peyton crafts words centered on the belief that grace and perfection can’t coexist, and to unlock God’s freedom, we must surrender to the latter. In high school, Peyton was voted Senior Class President and earned her spot as their 2012 Valedictorian. In college, her sorority voted her “Sister Saint.” For decades, she checked all the church boxes and knew which verses to recite and when to recite them. However, a few years into her new role as a pilot’s wife—being the “Mrs. Mr.” of the home while her husband was away—and after being diagnosed with Intrusive Thought OCD, she came face-to-face with failure, flaws, and few thoughts that God was good… until he was.

In fact, through raw, gritty prayers and countless lessons learned by error, Peyton found God to be a personal deity she could not only “love” through church obligation but choose to like from a place of infatuation. Thus, she challenges her readers to pursue the God who not only died for man’s sins but dies for the chance to sit with us over a cup of coffee and ask about our day. He is an endearing Savior who calls us to nothing short of a beautiful adventure.

Outside the writing world, Peyton chases Colorado and Tennessee mountains with her husband, Josh, and their two gremlin dogs, Alfie and Daisy.
