Women of different ages gathered around a table with open Bibles

Who we are

You are a seed that the Lord has saved.

“SavedSeeds began as a response to a deep need, a need for a space where women could be honest about where they were with God, without shame or fear of being misunderstood.”

It was born out of a personal season of searching, where having faith felt lonely and the questions about God were many. Inside the church, sermons were shared, but outside of it, I struggled to connect with brothers and sisters in Christ in deeper relationships. I didn’t have someone to walk with, to study with, or to confide in about the complexities of my faith. I didn’t know where to bring my doubts, my pain, or the parts of my story that didn’t feel “church-safe.”

So many women carry that same weight; feeling like they should know more, be more, or hide what they’ve walked through. We’re often expected to be strong, put together, and emotionally resilient, especially in a world that already demands so much from us. Yet at the same time, many of us are made to feel like we have to minimize our wisdom, hold back our voice, and stay silent about the things we do know; especially when it comes to our faith. But women have so much to offer the Body of Christ, so much to teach from what they have learned. Many of us carry deep knowledge, testimonies, and God-given insight, but we’ve been taught to keep it quiet, or worse no one has made space for us to use the gifts God has blessed us with

Saved Seeds was created to say: You don’t have to pretend, you dont have to dim your light, and you dont have to be perfect. You don’t have to put on a front and sis you dont always have to be strong. And you definitely don’t have to silence your wisdom or play yourself to be any less than you are. You’re not alone in how you are feeling y. In fact more than anyone else can acknowledge you, you are already recognized and deeply loved by God.

This is a space where real faith can grow in the midst of real life. Where vulnerability is met with grace, and stories are shared without filters. We gather as women who have wandered, wrestled, overcome and who have so much to share as we are still growing.

And through it all, God has remained faithful, tending to us like the good Gardener He is. Hebrews 10:23–24 reminds us: “Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess… and let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds.”

That’s what we’re here for, not to rush anyone forward, but to walk together in faith, side by side, rooted in truth and love. To be big sister, little sisters, and sisters that exist in the middle.

As Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians 3:9 & 11: “For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building... For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.” Saved Seeds is here to help you recognize the foundation that God has been nurturing, and to help you share what God has already planted in you with others. Saved Seeds it’s here to remind you that God has already placed purpose within you. To remind you that you are light, a fan ready to be flamed, to show you that you are worthy of being listened to and that no matter where you may be you are of big assistance to your fellow sister. Whether you're exploring who Jesus is for the first time or rediscovering your calling, this is a space to a place to breathe, belong, bloom, and to just be when you are in need of rating.

“You are a seed that the Lord has saved. And we’re so glad you’re here.”

Meet Ebaisin...

“I am an ordained minister, a seminary student, and most importantly, a daughter of Christ.”

My name is Ebaisin, and I am the founder and creator of Saved Seeds. I am an ordained minister, a seminary student, and most importantly, a daughter of Christ.

I created Saved Seeds with a heart that longs for genuine sisterhood in Christian spaces. I love learning about the Lord, studying Scripture, theology, apologetics, and growing in my understanding of who God is. I also love serving, ministering, advocating, and simply being able to walk alongside others in their faith.

I am Ethiopian, a Black woman, and a first generation American.

Saved Seeds is a reflection of my heart. My prayer is to create a safe space where we can grow in our relationship with God while also having a platform where we can show up as our true selves. My hope is that we will be able to engage with Scripture both together and independently, grow in our understanding, and recognize that our reflections, voices, questions, experiences, and insights have a place in the Body of Christ, that they are wanted and needed!

I want you to know that you do not have to fit into a certain mold to belong here. There is room for your personality, your story, your questions, your gifts, and the things that make you uniquely you. I believe there is something beautiful about being able to follow Christ while still being the person God uniquely created you to be. There is room for each and every one of us in the Body of Christ, and I am grateful to be able to walk alongside you.
