Hi and Welcome to our life.

We have always wanted an avenue to document the craziness in our lives, so we have decided to start this…

As the title alludes to the four most important areas of our lives and in that order our faith, our family, our firearms and our fitness journey.

So lets start with a little bit about us. My name is Katie Johnson and my amazing husband is Jesse Johnson.

FAITH. We have both grown up in homes that helped instill in us a belief in God and His path to salvation and His amazing Glory. Although we have our moments where we think we can handle it all by ourselves, we are quick to be reminded that He is in control.

FAMILY. Jesse and I have been married for three wonderful years as of today, April 14th. This has been the three best years of my life so far. That doesn’t mean they have been with out challenges and heartaches, but we will get into those in a later post. We have three fur babies, Bella the pointer, Shuffle the Whippet, and Bear the Shepherd/Spaniel Mix.

FIREARMS. We own a company called Soteria Training Solutions. We train people in the safe use of firearms and Illinois Concealed Carry. We also are a firearms dealer. A lot of people ask “What does Soteria mean?” to answer that question, it means

deliverance, preservation, safety, salvation
deliverance from the molestation of enemies
in an ethical sense, that which concludes to the souls safety or salvation
of Messianic salvation
salvation as the present possession of all true Christians
future salvation, the sum of benefits and blessings which the Christians, redeemed from all earthly ills, will enjoy after the visible return of Christ from heaven in the consummated and eternal kingdom of God.

FITNESS. Jesse and I have just recently started our fitness journey. With the help of an AMAZING coach we have been eating healthy and working out for the last few months. In 3 months, I (Katie) have lost 30 lbs!!! I am learning a lot about myself and the things I thought that I could not do but I really can if I put my mind to it.

So now you know a little bit about us. I hope that in the future you find something that can help you in some way as so many people have impacted our lives.
