From Tide to Timber – Terms of Service

Effective Date: 8/12/2025

Hello, friend. By reading, subscribing to, or interacting with From Tide to Timber on Substack (the “Site”), you are agreeing to these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, you may simply choose not to subscribe or visit.

1. What You Can Expect Here

This Substack contains my personal stories, life lessons, humor, and faith-based encouragement and advice. I am not a lawyer, doctor, counselor, therapist, or CPA — I am Candie your Christian Friend, offering a blend of biblical truths, personal perspective, and humor.

Everything I share is intended for encouragement, inspiration, and entertainment. Please compare it with the truth of God’s Word, consider it thoughtfully, and make your own decisions.

2. Ownership of Content

Unless otherwise stated, all writing, images, audio, and other materials published here are owned by me.

You may:

• Share links to my posts

• Use the Substack share button

• Quote short excerpts with proper credit

You may not copy, repost, sell, or distribute my work in full without my written permission.

3. Community Guidelines

This is a place for friendly conversation and respectful dialogue. Healthy discussion is welcome; personal attacks, harassment, spam, or hateful comments are not. I reserve the right to remove any comments that do not align with this standard.

4. Email and Subscription

When you subscribe, you agree to receive emails from me. You may unsubscribe at any time by clicking the link in the email footer.

Your email address will never be sold, rented, or given to third parties.

5. Limitation of Liability

The Site is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. I am not responsible for any loss, damage, or consequences that result from your use of or reliance on the content I share. You alone are responsible for your decisions and actions. (Can I get an Amen?!)

6. Changes to These Terms

I may update these Terms occasionally. When changes are made, the “Effective Date” at the top will be updated. Continued use of the Site after changes means you accept the revised Terms.

7. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, without regard to its conflict of law rules. Any disputes will be resolved in the courts of Kentucky.

Thank you for joining me here. I am honored to share this space with you, and I look forward to many good talks in the future.
