A Teenager? When did this happen?

I have to laugh at this title. I started it three years ago when my oldest turned 13. This weekend she turned 16. All that time I had a draft with this title and nothing else. Next month my oldest son will turn 13. Time continues to pass as I continue to be in denial […]

The Power of Allowing God into Our Story

Today I want to encourage each of you to share your stories. Your story is your testimony and it is powerful. It can point people to Jesus in a life-giving, world-altering way. Have you ever considered that? Have you allowed God to heal the places of brokenness, the places where life has shattered you? You have a […]
