Taking the Time: She Reads Truth

A few months ago an app was released called She Reads Truth. Since they launched it I have been in love. This app is more than just a Bible reading app; the women who created it truly desire to foster genuine community, dive into Scripture, and grow as followers of Christ. A few things their app … Continue reading

A whole lot of Jesus

print can be purchased here Friday’s are a great.  Last day of the work week/school week.  The weekend is finally here!  But Friday’s can also be a drag.  Lack of motivation, tiredness and maybe just a hint of annoyance at the week. A bit of advice?  Grab your coffee, or tea, or pop!  Take some … Continue reading

God’s Goodness

I often have a skewed idea of what God’s goodness is. I easily equate it with happiness and getting what I want. However, God’s goodness is far bigger than me being happy. God’s goodness is His love, mercy, patience, justice, sacrifice, and much more. I think there is far more comfort in the actual goodness … Continue reading

A Broad Place

Often times when I think of the grace, stability and comfort that God provides, I fail to think about how certain his security is. I’m not talking about security of salvation- I’m talking about not being let out of his protection. We can’t enter into his safety, hide under the shadow of his wing, and … Continue reading

In life, we are forced to … Continue reading

All Surpassing

When I think of someone who is wise I tend to think of that person as mature, intelligent, put-together, quite serene, and maybe even a little hard to understand. Wisdom is an attribute sought after by many and achieved by few. The ultimate example of wisdom comes not from man, or even Yoda, but from … Continue reading

Counting it JOY

My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, 3 knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. 4 But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing. – James 1:2-4 Being joyful in icky situations is not something I am very good at.  For some, it comes naturally, but … Continue reading

His Purpose

“For the Son of Man came to seek and save the lost.” Luke 19:10 I find it easy to breeze over the ministry and impact Jesus had on earth. His life was only 33 years, and His ministry was only 3 of those years. However, His impact is immeasurable. When we hear the verse, “For … Continue reading
