Colby and Lexi met during their freshman year at the University of Central Arkansas! They met through mutual friends and would often see each other on campus or around on weekends. During January of 2015, Lexi attended a winter conference called SMC that began to change her life. It was at this conference that Lexi gave her life to Christ and started pursuing that relationship. At the end of their freshman year at UCA, Colby and Lexi went to a nine-week summer discipleship program called Kaleo. They learned about following Christ, sharing the gospel, discipleship, and what a Godly marriage should look like one day. It was towards the end of this summer that Colby, too, decided to give his life to Christ. That following year, Colby and Lexi's friendship continued, but didn't look the same. Instead of seeing each other on the weekends, they would see each other at weekly StuMo nights - the campus ministry they were both involved in. During their sophomore and junior years of college, they both pursued Christ, and grew in a lot of areas. They continued to go to church, attend weekly StuMo meetings, take on SMC, and spend their summers at Kaleo! However, something began to change towards the beginning of their senior year. Colby and Lexi believe that God had lifted a veil, and allowed them to see each other as potential partners. They had known each other for years, but never imagined being in a relationship with each other (and neither did their friends). As God sifted through their hearts for a few months, they both sought counsel on whether it was a step they should take. After spending time in prayer, Colby began to pursue Lexi in November of 2017. With that, the rest is history! The happy couple dated until January of 2019, when Colby got down on one knee and asked Lexi to spend forever with him!
