Crazy Times call for Crazy Joy
I came across this in my reading this morning: “Criticism, judgment and bitterness vibrate at a low frequency, and do not attract good things. Forgiveness, faith and grace vibrate high and bring good things.” If we aren’t careful, we may sabotage our peace, our joy, even our relationships by being judgmental, critical and angry all …
We are not subject to the ugliness in the world.
The struggle is real. We are once again facing unprecedented events, although after 2020 that word has lost its meaning, I’m thinking. The immense pressure in the world, and in the atmosphere, is driving people to a breaking point. It’s affecting people on every side of the issues, in our communities, and probably even in …
Are you facing any obstacles in life right now?
Hi friends! I have an amazing word of encouragement for you today. Are you facing any obstacles in life right now? Are there doors that seem to be closed to you? Mountains that seem to be in the way of where you want to go? Man, I can relate! Every day it seems like something …
See His Light in Dark Places
And this Light never fails to shine through darkness—Light that darkness could not overcome. (John 1:5) Are you in a dark season today, friend? Unfortunately, in life, we are often faced with situations that feel so dark, so hopeless, so overwhelming that it seems all we see is darkness. I hope this won’t relate to …
Where does fear come from?
I heard from several of you last week who are really struggling with fear in the face of all that’s happening in the world. You are not alone! I think, no, I know that all of us are fighting this at some level. And it is a fight! Keeping our faith solid and strong is …

I need to stop writing to you from my breakfast bar surrounded by dishes! HA! I guess you know you are free to read this surrounded by your own mess, if you have one! Today, I want to remind us that worship doesn’t have to be some formal, hyper-spiritual exercise. It doesn’t have to happen …
How full is your glass today?
How full is your glass today, friend? Is your tank feeling a bit low? Is that a gross understatement of where you are and how you are feeling? I’m sure for many of us, we are just spread too thin and still fearful for the future, if we are honest. While our homes and plates …
Faith Begins at Home
Interestingly, before 2020 happened and COVID hit, our church was in the middle of a series called, Take Home Faith. Isn’t that crazy? The series was all about how faith on Sunday morning isn’t enough and is not at all what God is calling us to. Faith that transforms our lives and influences others has …
Hope for a New Month
I am so thankful for a new month, aren’t you? Especially as we continue moving closer to spring and warmer weather and the hope of life getting increasingly better with each month. Hope is so necessary right now, friend. And if we aren’t careful, we can let our hopefulness slip which opens the door to …
