I recently got an email from a mom who is having some trouble disciplining her kids. I'm sure we can all agree we have trouble with that from time to time - right? Parenting is not easy. God wants to shape you, mold you, through the process of parenting your children.

Last week on Instagram, I mentioned that I was praying for a peaceful transition of power between Adminstrations, and my new friend, Aaron Young, commented that we needed to do a better job actually talking with each other—black and white—so that we can have a better understanding of where each of us is coming from. I couldn't agree more, and so, I invited two friends of color on the show with ...

Three days after the US elections and Americans are asking, "Where do we go from here?" The answer, according to God, is to humbly seek Him in prayer. This is our challenge. To be like Elisha. David. Paul. To pray for healing and revival. Prayer is our most effective and powerful weapon in the battles we are facing as a nation. If we're going to see our nation prosper again, we must return to God. The Church needs to be on its knees in prayer.

There is a lot of fear in the United States and around the world right now, but did you know that there is an emotion that is more powerful than fear? There is—it's called HOPE. Hope is a powerful motivator! As Christians, we dare not put our hope in an election. That doesn't mean we sit it out—it means that we cast our vote with hope. Hope changes everything. Once we have been obedient, once we have made our stand, when we have done what we could do—when we have prayed, obeyed and trusted—we wa...
