Shannon Leach Let Me Tell You a Story
I have the best job. As a writer, coach, and creative leader, I have the privilege of carrying words and light to the world.
But those are not the only titles I am known for. I am also human, fallible, and quite stubborn. These little party tricks welcome the story of grace with open arms, transforming me into more than just a storyteller. I get to be a lighthouse.
As my gifts meet my challenges, they beautifully blend into the shape of my story, aligning my passion to carry words and light across the genres of creativity with my calling to connect lonely souls to One who never leaves us alone.
Whether I am inviting you into the devotion and truth of my most recent adventure or encouraging you to keep building your own lighthouse, I have a reflection just waiting to light the way.

One Source Many Reflections
Lighthouses are designed to be seen from many angles, offering multiple ways to help those looking for light find their way.
Maybe this is why they are so fascinating to me. God is my one source of light, but the gifts He has given me reflect that light in many different and beautiful ways.
And that is okay.
When we let go of who we think we are supposed to be, we make room to embrace who we were created to be all along. And that may not look like just one thing.
You are the poem God wants to read to the world.
Your story is someone's hope. I would love to help you break through the barriers that keep you from telling it. Today is a great day to be an overcomer.
The Reasons for the Words
There are just three.
You. Me. God.
My encouragement ministry, A Repurposed Heart, is a calling with a very specific audience. It is for anyone who feels alone.
From poetry to devotions and jokes to short stories, I write about the struggles that keep us held back and the truth that sets us free. I write for my healing. I write for your encouragement. I write for His glory.
I pray you find just the words you need right now.
