Homies
I know her back story and she knows mine. Our spirits connect at a different level…even though we are about as different as could be. I am young. She is old enough to be my grandma. I am short. She is tall. I have… Continue Reading “Homies”
It’s Called Mercy
“I’ve made a mess of my life.” The woman sitting in front of me tried blinking back the tears to no avail…

Over the past year, my theme has been “Come to His Table”. For twelve solid months I’ve reflected on this concept. I’ve dug into His Word and God has opened my eyes to places where He is working and shown me what it is… Continue Reading “Lessons from His Table”

Life Calling- Part 4
#4: Stop Chasing and Just Start! In our Christian culture it feels like we LABOR over our life callings. Perhaps even to a fault. As if it’s our job to run after it and discover it on our own. Here’s the deal. I think… Continue Reading “Life Calling- Part 4”
