Fight the Right Fight
Have you ever stopped and wondered ‘why am I fighting so hard to protect this life that I am living?’ I am a living example of a broken human who fought the wrong fight for decades. The fight of perception. The fight of impression. The fight of comparison. The fight for the right to paaarrrty!…

Let it Rain

This was a diverse team of women and men, with varying backgrounds designed to mirror the demographics of the church. The Leadership Team would…

Faith Makes the Cloudy Clear
I find myself in a unique place of questioning and seeking. Obedience seems to lead to more questions than answers. God makes clear to me that my heart must align with his Will and my desires surrender to his plans. So I take another step today. I place all at his feet and do what…

Numbers Matter
Do you ever wonder about your worth and value in this World? We live in a time where value is based upon numbers. Numbers of social media friends. Numbers of cars. Number of square feet in a house. Number of vacations taken. Number of digits in a bank account. Number of countries visited. Numbers of…
