Stop a moment. 




 I forgot my fitness tracker today so when I went to the gym all those treadmill steps didn’t get counted. At least not officially.

That time my dying friend shocked me




We sat in her living room huddled around our Bibles after we watched a woman Bible teacher unpack several verses. True to form, Twilla did not steer us back to the passage. She flipped through her well-loved Bible and landed in Isaiah. She pointed to the passage, then looked at me. In a few months, […]
