I’m Makenzi—a speaker and Bible teacher from Seattle, WA, now rooted in New York. Through prayer, preaching, and listening, I seek to guide others into joyful and radical obedience to Christ in the midst of ordinary life.

In 2020, I founded Abide, a weekly devotional to encourage women to deepen their relationship with Jesus. Since then, I’ve led Bible studies, retreats, and discipleship spaces in both church and para-church settings. My vision is to call this generation into a life of abiding in Christ—growing in discipleship, living in obedience, and joining God’s mission to share the gospel with the world. I carry a global vision to preach the gospel, create formational pathways, and walk alongside others in the long obedience of faith.

Currently, I’m finishing my Master’s at Reformed Theological Seminary with plans to pursue a Doctor of Ministry in Pastoral Theology in the coming year.
