Over the past five years, my passion in life has been to do whatever I can to inspire, to equip and to provide a place of authentic community for young women in the creative arts, being rooted and grounded in Jesus Christ.   What is Delight & Be all about? Our mission is to provide […]

After wrapping up our April retreat a few weeks back, we can’t help but be so overwhelmed by how blessed this time was. There are countless people who worked behind the scenes to prepare and provide for this retreat, and it has not gone unnoticed! In particular, we are so incredibly grateful to all of our […]

Happy New Year! I just wanted to share an update, look at a year in review of the beautiful things God did in 2016, and let you know all of our needs going forward in the year! I am SO grateful for Delight and the incredible blessing each and every one of you are! In December […]

by: Hope Bridgeman I became a “Big Sister” in January 2015. I would like to say that it was on a whim, but honestly, it was 100% the Lord and His doing just like everything else in my life. He knew my heart and that I needed a way to be able to pour into […]

“You are kind of like Noah”, he said. In January of 2014, a contractor looked me in the eye and said those very words. They rang in my ears and were fundamental in the beginning stages of what I had no idea would be such a transforming journey of a home that has become so […]

Delight &  {be. . . __________}.  When I was agonizing over what to name what was to become Delight & Be back in November of 2012, I was talking to one of my dearest friends, Karen Stott (Founder of Pursuit and Intentional Home). I knew it was meant to be “Delight”, but I knew something […]

My dream for 2016 is to send 20 girls fully sponsored to a Delight retreat, workshop or intensive! But more than that, I would love to see those who support these young women to not only invest in their lives financially by giving them a once in a lifetime opportunity, but also by coming alongside […]

I was told I needed an “elevator speech” about what Delight & Be is all about. A very short one minute explanation. I have a tendency to ramble a bit because I get so excited when people ask! But someone recently asked me, “What would you say Delight is all about in one sentence?” And […]

I sat in a gym watching my son play basketball all day yesterday. It was wonderful. . .other than my bleacher-butt today (sorry to all those people who don’t use the word “butt”. . .but my butt is not used to sitting all day in a gym on uncomfortable bleachers)!! To me, one of my […]

The season of giving is here. Won’t you consider partnering with Delight as we move ahead into the 2016? Please help us continue to further the “heart” work being done in and through Delight by sharing this post or any post that has resonated with you during the last week! We know God has big things […]

These are MY GIRLS!!!! My family has gotten used to me saying “my girls” or hearing me say “one of my sweet girls. . .”. because that is how I feel about the incredible young women I have gotten to know because of Delight. Most of the girls refer to me as “Momma Wall” & […]

Did you know we have an incredible group of over 600 young women in our online community? This is a beautiful safe place where girls have gotten to know each other online. . .where friendships have formed and where God has allowed us to  get to know each other, ask tough questions, encourage and pray […]

“We will endeavor to love others at all times. We will seek Jesus and His kingdom and let our hearts be filled with more of Him everyday. We will LIVE in freedom and redemption as chosen and loved women. We will rejoice in hope, seek joy, and celebrate grace. We will wake with open hands […]
