Is God Pleased with You?

Is God Pleased with You?

March 14, 2018

This morning, curled up in the corner of my usual quiet-time space, my workbook to Beth Moore’s The Quest Bible Study open on my lap, a question sprung off the page and stumped me: Do you struggle to imagine God smiling on you? I thought about it, took a sip of my warm vanilla coffee, and wrote down my honest answer. Dutifully, I kept going, and read Exodus 33. Moses and God are having a ... View Post

If you want the church to change, go and be the church

If you want the church to change, go and be the church

February 26, 2018

When was the last time you were involved in a heated discussion about the church? Maybe it was about your home church and something that drives you crazy. Or maybe some “crazy Christian” made a comment that offended you and a discussion ensued about how “the church” is a hot mess. I’ve witnessed and been a part of lengthy debates regarding the church. These discussions have been regarding the ... View Post

Waiting in the Womb: How God Births Miracles from the Barren

Waiting in the Womb: How God Births Miracles from the Barren

January 24, 2018

In Genesis we are introduced to Sarah, who becomes the mother of all Israel. With her begins God's promise that someday Abraham's descendants will outnumber the stars in the sky. God's promise to Abraham can't work without a womb. And the woman whose womb He has been chosen is barren. Sarah is beyond middle age when the promise is first spoken, and twenty-five years later when the promise ... View Post

The Busy Believer’s Guide to Bible Binging

The Busy Believer’s Guide to Bible Binging

January 16, 2018

I wasn’t always a Bible Binger. I used to open the Bible, slide my fingers across the silky pages and get ready to be transformed. I’d read a few words, maybe a chapter, and – BOOM – bored. So I’d put it back on the shelf and go back to trying to be a good Christian, even with the nagging feeling I was missing something. You know the feeling, like you should be doing something… That feeling ... View Post

When Jesus Came to Christmas

When Jesus Came to Christmas

December 13, 2017

We are gathered in the quiet early morning amidst twinkles and tinsel. My boys are running in elated circles as I drink my coffee with half-opened eyes and gift tape still stuck to my pajamas from late-night wrapping. What would Christmas morning be like without coffee? I wonder. And then I take another sip. Because clearly that’s the question of a woman who hasn’t had enough caffeine. The boys ... View Post

Waiting on the Promise

Waiting on the Promise

November 14, 2017

Have you ever felt as though God has given you a promise? I’m talking about a whisper in your spirit, a prophecy, or a vision so incredible and fleeting you think surely you’ve been drinking too many lattes. I have. September of 2016 marked the beginning of a season of great communication and whispered promises between the Lord and me. It began with an entertainment fast (that means no TV or ... View Post

How Are We Condemning Our Christian Friends Instead of Encouraging Them?

How Are We Condemning Our Christian Friends Instead of Encouraging Them?

October 18, 2017

As Christians we are instructed biblically to be holy, righteous and to live according to the fruit of the spirit. When we invite the Holy Spirit into our life by accepting Christ as our savior we receive this fruit. In our youth as Christians this fruit might look more like a blossom than the fruit that grows from the blossom because it takes time to be fruitful in our faith. Our human nature is ... View Post

Why I Refuse to be Pregnant with Fear

Why I Refuse to be Pregnant with Fear

October 13, 2017

A couple days ago I announced to my Facebook friends that our family is anticipating a precious baby. I’m only six weeks along with this pregnancy and, by announcing, I’ve broken the unwritten rule that we don’t go public until we’re safely into the second trimester. Only two days before our announcement, I’d planned on waiting too. Because I’m all about protocol. I’m a rule follower. And because ... View Post

Noah’s Road…From The Beginning

Noah’s Road…From The Beginning

October 10, 2017

Last Wednesday the word seizure shot back into our vocabulary. In an instant the normal of the morning vanished when Noah, in the middle of breakfast, wandered confused and lost. Mike and I stood dumbfounded, and Avry began to cry as the neurons in Noah’s brain misfired for the first time in nearly two years. If you’ve visited Noah’s Road to learn about our journey, or you’ve followed us from the ... View Post

Breathing Lessons: Hope When You’ve Lost It

Breathing Lessons: Hope When You’ve Lost It

Last night my seven-year-old son, Avry, couldn’t find his breathing medicine (his inhaler and spacer). It’s a daily struggle for him, even though we’ve given him his own container for it and a storage place in the family room. But he’s seven, and sometimes he’s acts like it. By losing things. We were late for…

Going to Battle: How to Choose Prayer Warriors

I placed my hands on her warm shoulders. I was kneeling behind her, my eyes closed, and I could feel the presence of the twenty other people surrounding us. Linked by touching hands or fingers set atop arms and soft summery cottons, we had  gathered in faith to pray for healing over this young woman…
