Faith is freedom. Not a performance review.
This is a space for the stories, resources, and raw conversations that help you see the God who already made His home in you.
Most of us were…
Handed a version of faith that promised freedom—but never delivered. Told to trust God, but graded on how well we played the game. So the sermons piled up. The pressure stayed.
You’re not crazy for questioning this.
You just haven’t seen that grace is a lark—a joke on religion played by the God who never followed the rules we made for Him.
Ready to see the joke?
This free, 3-part video series will help you rethink grace, faith, and how we actually learn to live free. Right where you are.

About Lark
Lark isn’t a ministry. It’s just the name I gave to the message that wrecked me—in the best way.
After years of leading churches and hitting the goals that get applause, I (Russ) stepped away. Not because I stopped believing in Jesus. But because I finally started to see Jesus for who He is—and realized the system can’t afford to let grace mean what He meant.
What I’ve come to see is simple:
We turned grace into a condition. And faith became a transaction. But God isn’t waiting on you to get it right. He already made His home in you.
That’s the joke. That’s the lark.
Now I spend my time sharing stories, asking better questions, and making space—and resources—to help us remember what’s already true.
I’m not here to build an organization. I’m here with others to help you live free. And maybe laugh a little along the way.
