The Holiness of Waiting
Have you ever been in a season of waiting? A time when you’ve prayed and received a word from the Lord but haven’t seen the fruit of His answer yet. That in-between time can feel so long and drawn out. Even the most faithful can find themselves asking if the Lord somehow forgot His promise …
The Wave
When I was in high school, my family and I were in a “long-term camping” situation. We lived on acreage of undeveloped land about one hour south of the nearest town. With no utilities and such a remote location, it was the most rural this city girl had ever experienced. Since we were so far …
The Gift of Community
Throughout the seasons of my life, community has been a high priority to me. With the arrival of two babies within a 14-month timespan, our church’s chapter of MOPS was a lifeline to me. Discovering that I wasn’t alone in this journey of motherhood, nor was I the only one trying to figure it all …

Deciding to be Brave
We’ve all had intense seasons of bravery. We’ve faced the unknown with our ministries and our families. We’ve adjusted our plans on the fly, many times over. We’ve navigated difficult conversations with family and strangers alike when we’ve offered all we’ve had – Jesus. Yes, we’ve been brave. But rarely have my brave moments looked …
Breathe
Not long ago, I heard my Pastor talk about some world-class runners he was watching compete. These men were strong, had high endurance, and trained long hours for this competition. He reminded us, though, that regardless of how these athletes had finished the race – no matter how they placed – they all had one …
