A 2006 Cedarville University alumna, Catie\u2019s years on campus gave her more than a degree; they gave her a biblical lens with which to view the world. That foundation became her anchor as she traveled across continents, teaching in China and later in the heart of Chicago\u2019s bustling Chinatown.<\/p>\n<p>Catie\u2019s influence and heart for young learners have had an impact far beyond the classroom. She played a creative role in developing the Cedarville Cursive Google font, a handwriting style that has gained widespread popularity for its charm, readability, and nostalgic beauty. It\u2019s now used in everything from educational materials to digital design, becoming a small but meaningful part of how ideas are shared.<\/p>\n<p>Today, Catie lives along the peaceful lake shore in southwest Michigan, where her days revolve around faith, family, and a lifelong love for books. With her young children in school, she\u2019s turning her energy toward expanding her collection of online lesson plans \u2014 offering thoughtful resources shaped by years of hands-on experience.<\/p>\n<p>In a recent appearance on the <em>Cedarville Stories<\/em> podcast, Catie reflected on her time at Cedarville and how it equipped her to engage the world with confidence and conviction. Whether in overseas classrooms, urban neighborhoods, or as a mom, her passion for education and truth has remained steady.<\/p>\n<p>Catie Holt\u2019s journey is a quiet testament to the power of faith, creativity, and lifelong learning \u2014 written in cursive and lived with grace.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" title=\"S13:E13 | A Life Scripted in Cursive and Grace: Catie Holt\" width=\"100%\" height=\"180\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/share.transistor.fm\/e\/fd68d1b6#?secret=rJKfA2pJiG\" data-secret=\"rJKfA2pJiG\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"s13e13 Catie Holt\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pX1a9sSU8Eg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Life Scripted in Cursive and Grace Catie Holt\u2019s story reads like a favorite chapter book \u2014 warm, engaging, and full of purpose.
