"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go".
JOSHUA 1:9
“Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us. For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will scarcely die for a righteous person—though perhaps for a good person one would dare even to die— but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life. More than that, we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.”

HIS STORY
A life marked by
grace & faithfulness.
Jared Walker Wallace was the kind of person who made every room feel warmer and every person feel seen. Above all else, he was deeply in love with Jesus Christ not as a distant belief, but as the heartbeat of everything he did. His faith wasn't something he wore; it was something he lived, fully and without apology, in every room he walked into and every life he touched.
Born in 1982, Jared's life was defined by the relationships he poured himself into. He loved his wife Shanda with a devotion that was evident to everyone around them — theirs was a love that pointed people toward something greater. Together they built a family and a home full of faith, laughter, and belonging. His children — Linden, Kingston, Sailor, and Golden were among his greatest joys, and the way he fathered them reflected the same tenderness and intention he brought to everything he did.
Whether it was his family, his church community, or the strangers who quickly became friends, Jared gave generously and without reservation. He leaves behind a legacy not measured in accomplishments, but in the countless lives he shaped. Those who knew him carry pieces of him forward in the way they choose to love, to serve, and to show up for each other, just as he always did.
