We need to speak up! What do we do when we don’t have the strength to overcome anymore? Do we continue to figure out new ways to fight against our addiction/temptation/struggle? Maybe we feel we’ve done all that we can do on our own…. We’ve tried saying “no” in our minds. Maybe we’ve even literally [...]
It’s tough to be a Christian woman. We’ve got words like modesty and grace and prim and proper to contend with – words that don’t always fit us, and the truth is, that’s OK. I, myself, prefer sweatpants over skinny jeans. I’m not great at Pinterest crafts. I’m sarcastic and I wear T-shirts, and it [...]

Recently, I did something that could very well re-direct the course of my life. What is it you ask? Well I got some accountability software on my computer from XXX Church (called X3 Watch Pro). It safeguards me from viewing Pornography websites whenever I have moments of isolation. This may come as a shock to [...]

“When you die……have you ever wondered what people will say about you at your funeral?” I take a sip of my drink and mull this over. In High School I wasn’t a very popular kid, so planning my own mental funeral was a game I played to see if anyone would really miss me. Would [...]

Everybody worships something……a musician, actor, boyfriend/girlfriend, money, friends, sports, God, and so it goes. Meriam-webster defines worship as “extravagant respect or admiration for or devotion [...]
