  Have you ever found yourself longing to be further along in your journey, striving for what hasn’t happened yet? In these situations, I’ve found that taking myself out of the running is the healthiest course of action. In a couple of months, I’ll attend the yearly She Speaks conference through Proverbs 31 Ministries. It’s…

Do you ever get into a rut and struggle with overcoming the Bible-reading blahs? Sometimes my time in the Word can feel as routine as running the dishwasher and as uninspiring as an ordinary weeknight meal. We want our moments with God to be rewarding and rich, but often they can feel stale and stagnant.…

  I had to shuffle through my big, messy photo bins to find this picture for my son’s upcoming wedding. Seeing the image of us on this day brought some emotion in that moment. Our wedding day almost didn’t happen. The first time my husband proposed, I said no. Harsh, I know. It wasn’t because…

  Have you wondered when your day will come? We often feel like the woman in the middle of others’ successes, with dreams fulfilled and prayers answered. Maybe you look and see things falling into place for people around you and think…when is the thing that I’m waiting for going to happen? When is my…

I’m experiencing Spring in a whole new way this year. Living in an area with distinct seasons, including long winters, brings new hope as we see trees budding their leaves and green blades of grass peeking through months of brown landscape.

There is an aspect to this East Coast living that I haven’t adjusted to yet- enduring the brown grass season. No one warned me about this. No one told me that I’d be looking at a sea of ugly beige as the grass lies dormant for roughly five months. Moving to South Carolina from Southern…

  It’s tough to beat a good romantic comedy. My husband and I hit the theater last weekend and met up with friends to see Solo Mio. It’s about a wedding disaster that leaves a groom stranded at the altar in the magnificent city of Rome. I was reminded of how difficult romantic love is…

  Spending time with my neighbor friend, Susan, is always a good mood booster. She loves the Lord so much that she can’t help but talk about Him. No matter where our conversation starts, it always lands on Jesus. And because He is always in earshot, He listens when we talk about Him. And not…

When relationship struggles and conflicts arise, it can be so troubling. Often, we don’t see problems coming, and then bam… discord. One person sees things one way, and you see them another. Who is right? It doesn’t really matter. What matters is that we can work together in peace and unity as God asks of…

As we close up another year, I love looking back and reflecting. Every year has its share of highs and lows, moments we celebrated with elation and crushing situations that rocked us to our core. For me, 2025 was no different. My mountain-top moments were buffered with tears and brokenness, but I’m learning that this…
