Can You Write Your Own Psalm?
I love the Lord with all my heart, but I often find the Praise and Adoration part of my prayer life lacking. Thanking God for His faithfulness is a natural part of my prayers, but that first part of the A.C.T.S. prayer pattern is a toughie for me. A. – Adoration C. – Confession T. … Read More

A Different Kind of Beautiful
I’ve always thought my mom was beautiful. Graceful. She was trained in opera when she was young. I remember going with her to weddings, hearing her sing the Lord’s prayer. The whole sanctuary full of guests would fall silent on her last, drawn-out note of, “Ahhhhh-mennnn.” Ooooooh. Still gives me goose bumps to think of … Read More

Guest Review of WINGS OF THE WIND by Connilyn Cossette
Occasionally, I’ll have a crazy month when I’m unable to read and review a book. This was one such month. Several of my BFF team members do fantastic blogs, so I asked Tina Chen to share her post from May 2017 on a book that she read and reviewed. It just so happened that she even … Read More

Find Your Light by Bree Herron
“Your sun will never set again, and your moon will wane no more; the Lord will be your everlasting light, and your days of sorrow will end.“ (Isaiah 60:22) Life is hard sometimes! Our faith is a hard-won, daily commitment, not a value meal we grab on the go like fast food. One can’t tell … Read More

How to Pray When Life is Hard
If you haven’t yet heard, let me tell you here—the release of my next book, Isaiah’s Daughter, must be delayed from October 2017 to January 2018. Why?

Going Through the Motions by Wendy Park
Have you ever experienced a season in your life where worshiping God was difficult? A season in which you mouthed the words of praise, but your heart was not in it?

What Does the Bible Say About Eating?
One of our pastors recently preached on the topic of food. The Bible has lots to say about it. Can you believe it? What to eat. What not to eat. Feasting and fasting. Let me confess up front: I’m a reformed food-a-holic. I come from a long line of southern-cooking, buffet-going, stuff-your-face kinda folks. When … Read More
