This summer, I went through an unexpected break up with a guy that I thought I was going to marry. It stirred a number of emotions--mainly confusion toward him and anger toward God.

While fast food might be convenient, cheap and taste good, the real cost of eating it never appears on the menu! The ingredients are not always the highest quality, the expense takes a toll on your wallet, and the fast-paced, on-the-go consumption doesn't allow you to enjoy your meal or your body to process it completely to optimize your health. Similarly, the "fast-food-soul-food" we eat is not always the most nourishing for our souls. Now, don't get me wrong a good devo, Bible-based app, or dr...

To fight off the enemy's fiery darts, we need to utilize our heaven-sent weapons. In this series, I'm sharing what I believe to be God-inspired weapons to help us grow in our faith and walk in victory. In today's episode we explore the importance of sistering, not only as an architectural term, but as a powerful tool. While the Bible has numerous examples of the importance of community, today we look to Jesus' mother, Mary. In Luke 1:39 we read that after Mary received the news she was pregnant ...

Despite hating things in masks, I love Cirque de Soliel shows. I love the acrobatics, the musical score, the animation and effects--and I especially enjoy walking into the dimly lit theater as I observe the set and the character that "warms up" the crowd before the show actually begins. These elements set the stage for the anticipation of the actual show! Similarly, when we worship God, we get to experience His power, His sovereignty, His provision, His holiness and so much more as we enter into...

Over the last few weeks, I've endured much hopelessness. But as we are called to do, I turned to The Bible for strength and support. I camped out in caves with David through the Psalms. I cried through Ruth while she faithfully gleaned in the fields. I wept with Jeremiah for what broke God's heart in Lamentations. And it was here while in Lamentations 3, I saw the shift, and experienced it for myself: Lam 3:21--"Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope." Instead of wallowing in hopeless...

There are 3 baptisms available for believers: our initial relationship with Jesus, water baptism, and the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Each is significant and helps us further develop in our faith walk and presents opportunities to be more like Jesus.

In many seasons of life, I avoided attending parties because I didn't have enough willpower to withstand the dessert table. I would often RSVP "NO" because I knew that I would say "YES" to cake, cookies, brownies, and even jello pretzel salads! (How did someone even concoct that recipe anyway?) Why?! Because they were there! I haven't posted a podcast in a while, but I felt led to share some insights on making memories this Memorial Day weekend (and into the summer) rather than continuing the "m...

I am in a new season of life--one of growth and discovery, and as we round the bases on this month's theme of resurrection power, I am inviting you on a journey of discovering what it means to truly enter rest and live a spirit-led lifestyle from rest instead of constant striving, working, and doing. Jesus' death, resurrection and position at God's right hand gives us the power and authority to operate from rest instead of striving for it. While life isn't easy, Jesus' yoke is!

After I lost the first 70lbs., my weight plateaued and as a result, I stopped having regular bowel movements. When the doctor told me that I would "just have to learn to adjust" to pooping only 2-3x a week, (yep, a week!) I began trying everything under the sun--Metamucil, Miralax, psyllium husk, cleanses, detoxes, even colonics and enemas. But over the years and most recently in the last 2ish years, I've learned that there are other key contributing factors to my lack of regularity. In today's ...
