About COLLECTED
Collected provides inspiration + resources to help Christians discover and operate from their truest selves.
Founded in 2017 by Tia McNelly, with the support and partnership of Jes Biondo and Mikala Hooper, Collected began with a vision for serving women with events that brought about transformation through worship, teaching, and creative risk-taking.
After receiving feedback from workshop attendees, events and resouces for a variety of audiences were developed. In 2018 we piloted Collected Camps for teen girls and The Collected Podcast for a general audience of men and women. These projects broadened our reach and further defined our mission.
Today, Collected provides educational resources and inspiration that support the spiritual formation of Christians for the purposes of helping Disciples of Jesus:
Discover and live from their true identity in Christ
Recognize and walk in their Divine purpose within the Kingdom of God
Experience growth in their capacity for mature, healthy relationships
Our values include:
Putting Jesus above all else
A strong bias toward action
Christ-centered soul care practices
A culture of intention that brings about growth, progress, and impact.
Activity that centers on worship, creativity, and prophetic encouragement
