When It’s Hard to Call God Father
Emily Wierenga has agreed to give 3 copies of her book Atlas Girl to one commenter on this post (one physical, two ebooks), so comment away, and perhaps you’ll win one! This is a beautiful post by Emily. I pray it blesses you. (Oh I know the heartache of learning to understand God as father.) […]

Earl and Michelle
I received this email last month, and am still humbled by it. Not so much that the story ends with my books in the hands of folks (that’s cool), but the amazing heart of Sharron who loves who she can in the corner of her daily world. I pray this story blesses you mightily as […]

A free Printable for your Fridge
I wrote these things hastily on Monday, realizing that I thought I knew so much as a kid, only to realize those things parents tell you are actually true (and that we have to learn them the hard way). One of the things I’ve been doing lately (actually the past two years) is read the […]

Let Jesus Out
Have you ever considered that your lack of risk in this life (for kingdom things) means you are not letting Jesus out? He so longs to touch the marginalized, to serve quietly, to say the difficult word in the perfect timing, to pray for a stranger who is barely hanging on to life. I want […]

In order to have a sustainable career beyond the fluke of one-shot-wonders, we have to understand the importance of small decisions over the long haul, of being faithful in little […]

You: A Gutsy Former Victim
You usually don’t realize you’re being abused or maligned until you step out from underneath oppression. And when you breathe that fresh, amazing air of freedom, you begin to reconstruct the story you had told yourself, where you were bad, full of sin, and deserved such treatment. You now remember conversations with better clarity, and […]

Scars: It’s Okay to Show Them
I read this post by Heather Caliri last week and asked her permission to post it here because it so typifies the healing journey and the uncaged life we all long for. She is a writer from San Diego. She started saying yes to joy in her faith two years ago and was surprised to […]
