Does This Mindset Distance You From God?
You don’t need to scroll social media for long before you hear this message on loop: “You deserve it.”
Buy this irrationally expensive purse (that costs as much as a downpayment on a house) because you deserve it.
Indulge in this decadent dessert (that you'll need to work off the rest of the week) because you deserve ...
What’s Your Default?
Ask my kids where they typically find me, and they’ll likely say, on the recliner couch in our family room. They would be right. (That comfy leather recliner is hands down one of the best purchases we’ve made.) Ask them what they’ll find me doing and they’ll probably say, scrolling on my phone (on the ...
The Three R’s of Parenting
You’ve probably heard of the three R’s of education: reading, writing, and arithmetic. Those three pillars form the foundation of academics for any student. But what about the three R’s which form the fundamentals of parenting?
As a mama of two teens, I don’t claim to share these three R’s from a place of having “nailed ...
When Creating is Difficult
Here's something fairly ironic: I'm at a writer's retreat, but didn't manage to write my post last evening. I guess that's what happens when you talk about writing rather than, well, write. But the retreat was everything I needed for a soul refresher to create content that glorifies God. And I did get some writing ...
Why “No Regrets” Is An Unhelpful Phrase
Although I was determined not to mindlessly scroll on my phone in the new year, I found myself swiping my screen on Instagram the other day. Thankfully, my pointless perusal turned out to be partly helpful because it became the introduction of this blog! (I know...excuses, excuses, excuses!). While browsing, I came across a Bollywood ...
Does This Outweigh Your Reputation?
Like many of you reading this post, I decided that healthy eating would be a worthy goal this year. To that end, I’ve started curating a “snack box” every morning. What’s in this mysterious snack box you might ask? Well, it contains portioned-out munchies for my day. Yesterday’s box, for instance, included fruit for my ...
A Prayer for 2025
The lion rips apart the carcass of the now-shredded buffalo. His mane shines a golden yellow in the rays of the morning sun. His cubs sit near him patiently, waiting their turn. They are not yet welcome to the meal. They’ve learned that dad has to lick his lips and walk away before they can ...
Christmas: The Divine Disruption Part 3
In the last two weeks, we’ve dived into how Christmas is a “divine disruption” in history and in our lives.
In weeks one and two, we looked at the truths:
Christmas is God’s intervention in our story of rebellion
and
Christmas is God’s invitation to repentance and relationship
Today, we’re wrapping up the series with the third truth:
Christmas is God ...
Christmas: The Divine Disruption Part 2
This Christmas, we’re doing a three-part series called “Christmas: The Divine Disruption.”
What is Christmas really about? Yes, we celebrate the birth of the new-born King. But what is the true significance of His birth?
Last week, we dived into Part 1 of the series with the principle: Christmas is God intervening in our story of rebellion.
Today ...
