HELLO, WE ARE
THE PICKLES.
Our Story
Alex Bio
I’m Alex Pickle, I’m 30 years old. I call Pinson, AL my home and I attend Solid Rock Church. I have been married to the most beautiful woman in the world, Lizzie Pickle, for 8 years. We have one beautiful daughter, Harper Pickle who continually stretches us and keeps us on our toes and another that is on the way. Lastly, we have one very special dog named Cazzie.
​
I have an amazing family that supports Lizzie and I through thick and thin. I was raised up in church and my family always tried to put Jesus first in everything we did. The Bible says in Proverbs 22:6, “train up a child in the way they should go; even when he/she is old they will not depart from it.” I firmly believe in this verse with all my heart.
​
As I grow older, I have realized more and more the importance of having the Word inside your heart. The world does not slow down, it doesn’t look back, and it doesn’t care if you get stuck. Life is a battle. Over the past several years, a word has begun to build up within my spirit. That word is Legacy. I begin to think, what would people in the future look back and think of me. What would the stories of my life be about? Would it be one of triumph, overcoming the odds, or would it be another story of heartache and pain?
​
With Legacy being my motivation, I begin to seek out the call that was on my life. I’m in pursuit of that calling with a fire that is burning within the depths of my bones. Though still in the beginning stages of this life altering change, I’m trusting in God with every move Lizzie, and I make. As my story continues to be written, my goal is to pursue Christ with all my heart, to be the best representation I can be, and to be a positive influence on everyone around me.
Lizzie Bio
Hi, I’m Lizzie Pickle! I’m married to my best friend, Alex and we share a spunky two-year-old daughter named, Harper and we have another child on the way. I grew up in church like most kids in the state of Alabama. My parents were pastors and still are to this day.
​
I’m so thankful that I was able to grow up in church and have meaningful experiences with God at a young age. I’m a people pleaser and rule follower by nature. This proved to be both mentally and spiritually exhausting for me over the years. I was in a horrible pattern like a yo-yo dieter. I would start off strong and confident. After all, I was a pastor’s kid. I knew what I needed to say, and the boxes that I needed to check off to be a “good Christian.” I tried to genuinely follow Jesus and be a good example to others. However, I was not letting the Holy Spirit lead my life.
​
I probably looked like the perfect example of a young Christian women from the outside, but I knew what I was struggling with on the inside. I was relying on what I knew about Jesus to help me live my life and I was not taking the time to get to know Jesus on a personal level. My spiritual life was on a roller coaster ride for years. Eventually, I would always hit a breaking point and decide to fully commit myself to God again, but as soon as things got too hectic in my life my relationship with God would start to fall apart again.
​
For years, I knew what the problem was, and I knew what I needed to do to fix the problem. However, I continued to let fear and self-doubt hold me back. Over the last couple of years, I have been reevaluating my life and my relationship with God. I have decided that I can’t be lukewarm Christian anymore. My family and I have finally decided to go all in!
