When You’re Not Really You

No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get past the 16th. It was a bummer, too, because that was less than halfway. I'm talking about Genesis, here. I mean I read it. Over and over. I studied it. I mapped locations and read definitions. But I couldn't write a Bible Study past the 16th chapter. And that's got to be the worst thing ever because lemme tell ya, nobody buys HALF a Bible Study.

When Your Light Is Dim

I am one of those rare individuals who has always loved Mondays. It’s like New Year’s Day every week. A brand new chance to fix what I screwed up last week. A brand new chance to spread joy throughout the land and spread His light to those around me. I recently volunteered at the Extraordinary Women conference. It’s the second year in a row I’ve served on the “Greeting” team, and this particular year I was the Greeting Team Leader. As a greeter, you’re the first person someone sees when they ... VIEW POST
