Carrie Shaw

Founder, writer and podcast host of Gospel Saturated

Carrie Shaw is the founder, writer and podcast host of Gospel Saturated, an Australian Christian theology blog she began in 2018 as a personal passion project. She lives on the east coast of Australia with her husband Luke and their three kids, and is studying a Diploma in Biblical Theology.

Carrie writes about the gospel, Scripture, church history and the questions Christians argue about. She’s especially passionate about grace and the work of the Holy Spirit, and about the Christian life as less about arriving and more about walking faithfully with Christ day by day. Her aim is to explore the faith with honesty, depth and a strong grounding in Scripture, taking both the beauty and the difficulty of following Jesus seriously.

She loves her family, coffee, the ocean, reading, big nerdy conversations and, of course, Jesus. Theology nerd, professional overthinker, with an unreasonable number of open browser tabs.
