Megan London is a force to be reckoned with.
The woman behind London’s Priorities, an Online platform dedicated to sustainable living and faith-based community building, is as passionate about organic gardening as she is about spreading the gospel. Her journey—from overcoming personal struggles to establishing a homestead ministry—is a testament to the power of faith, perseverance, and the undeniable provision of God.
A Seed of Purpose: Cultivating Faith Through Gardening
Megan’s love for gardening began in childhood, nurtured by her father. “My dad always had a garden, and I started at 11 years old,” she recalls. “He had four girls and wanted us to learn to work with our hands. Because Daddy knew if we got out there and worked, we’d wonder about our Creator.” Her upbringing in rural America fostered not only a love for the land but also an understanding that working the soil was more than just producing food—it was about getting closer to God. “Science catches up to the Creator,” she says with conviction. “When you get your hands in the soil, you can’t deny that God designed everything to work in perfect harmony.”

This passion for gardening became a cornerstone of London’s Priorities, where she teaches thousands how to grow their own food using organic, sustainable methods. Megan’s “chaos garden” method—allowing plants to grow naturally rather than in rigid rows—reflects both nature’s design and the biblical parable of the sower. “We throw seeds, and where they take root, they thrive. It’s just like faith,” she says.
Megan has also been working to bring gardening into prisons, particularly women’s correctional facilities. “Getting people out in nature, getting their hands in the soil, it makes them wonder about their Creator,” she explains. “It’s about more than just fresh food—it’s about spiritual nourishment.” Her vision includes developing gardens in prisons to teach sustainability while opening doors for faith-based rehabilitation programs.

Beyond prisons, Megan is working on outreach efforts to encourage urban gardening programs for underprivileged communities. She believes that access to fresh, organic food should not be a privilege reserved for the wealthy but a right for all. “Everyone deserves the opportunity to experience the miracle of growing their own food and seeing God's provision firsthand,” she states.

The Redemptive Power of God in Her Life
But Megan’s story isn’t just about plants—it’s about redemption. Having battled through broken relationships, addiction within her family, and personal hardships, she understands the power of God’s mercy firsthand. Her testimony resonates deeply with those who have felt lost, showing that no one is beyond God’s reach.
She shares how she has already discipled one of her sisters, bringing her into a relationship with Christ. “I’ve got one of them coming with me,” she says with joy. “She’s got a heck of a testimony, and I can’t wait for her to share it.”
Beyond her own family, Megan’s heart for outreach extends to the forgotten corners of society. She recently encountered a homeless family living in a cemetery. Moved to action, she rallied her Online community to raise enough funds to get them into a hotel. “This isn’t me,” she insists. “This is God using me as a vessel.”
Megan is deeply connected to those society often overlooks, recognizing that faith is often ignited in the most unexpected places. Her work with homeless outreach continues to grow, and she hopes to create a network of self-sustaining communities for those who have nowhere else to turn. “If we build bigger tables instead of higher fences, we’ll see true revival,” she says.
Sustainable Living as a Ministry
For Megan, her homestead is more than just a farm—it’s a ministry. She envisions it as a place where people can come, not just to learn how to grow their own food, but to encounter the love of God in action. “We’re not meant to work a nine-to-five just to stay oppressed,” she explains. “We were designed to work with our hands, to be in creation, and to seek God.” Her dream includes creating a food forest where people in need can find nourishment, not just for their bodies but for their souls. She’s even planning for her future homestead to host Sabbath gatherings where guests can give back by serving others. “You come on a Saturday? That money’s going right back into the community. We’ll build a widow’s porch, feed the hungry—whatever God tells us to do.”
We’re going to build this place from the ground up, and people are going to see what faith can do.
Megan and her family are currently moving onto their land with little more than faith, an unfinished tiny home, and a dream. “We don’t have all the tools, but we have God,” she says. “We’re going to build this place from the ground up, and people are going to see what faith can do.” Her long-term vision includes expanding her homestead to serve as a retreat center for those in need of spiritual
renewal. “I want people to come here and find peace—to experience firsthand what it means to be sustained by God, both physically and spiritually,” she shares.
Lessons from the Land: Biblical Principles in Everyday Life
Megan’s teachings draw heavily from scripture. “The parable of the sower and the parable of the talents guide my life,” she says. “God gives each of us gifts, and it’s our responsibility to use them to serve others.”
She applies these principles to both her business and personal life. From her handmade soaps—one of which, Hope Soap, was created specifically to raise funds for hurricane victims—to her future plans of raising sheep for wool, Megan sees every aspect of her life as an opportunity to glorify God. “I’ve learned that the more I bear fruit for the Kingdom, the more He provides.”
Faith Over Fear: Advice for Aspiring Christian Entrepreneurs
For those looking to build a business with purpose, Megan offers simple yet powerful advice: “Ask yourself every day: What am I influencing? Is it bearing fruit? And does it help others?” She encourages Christians to dream big and trust God with the details. “Faith without works is dead,” she reminds us. “If He tells you to do something, just start. It’s not about having all the answers—it’s about trusting Him to provide along the way.”
“If He tells you to do something, just start. It’s not about having all the answers—it’s about trusting Him to provide along the way.”
Megan also emphasizes the importance of transparency. “I don’t take from others, I only take when I give,” she says. “People need to know your motives are pure.” She ensures that all donations and business proceeds go directly toward Kingdom work, whether through building projects or directly helping those in need.
“This isn’t just about growing food. It’s about growing faith. It’s about showing people that God is still moving, still providing, and still calling us to be His hands and feet.”
Looking Ahead: A Future Built on Faith
As Megan and her family transition to their new homestead, she’s documenting every step of the process to inspire others. With no tractors, minimal tools, and a heart full of faith, she’s determined to show that anyone—regardless of financial standing—can build a life of sustainability and service.
“This isn’t just about growing food,” she says. “It’s about growing faith. It’s about showing people that God is still moving, still providing, and still calling us to be His hands and feet.”
Megan’s journey is far from over, but one thing is clear—God is using her, and she is all in.
