Kindness, Clarity, and Encouragement – #47
“Because of the privilege and authority God has given me, I give each of you this warning: Don’t think you are better than you really are. Be honest in your evaluation of yourselves, measuring yourselves by the faith God has given us. Just as our bodies have many parts and each part has a special […]

Kindness, Clarity, and Encouragement – #43
There’s a difference between true connection and seeking constant validation everywhere. What happens when the crowd no longer receives your message? When Jesus told the multitude “unless you eat my flesh and drink my blood…”, most of them walked away–so many that Jesus turned to Peter and said, “Will you leave, too?” Had his ministry […]

I said what I said
A lesson on the fruit of the lips I never ever say anything that I don’t mean. Even when I was out in the world. I am “If ‘I said what I said’ was a person”. Where’s my T-shirt? That said: I weigh words carefully cuz you can’t take them back. The imaging that God […]

My thoughts on Roe v. Wade
There is a difference in believing in Jesus Christ and following Christianity as it is presented as a religion. Those of us who follow Christ? We don’t live any kind of way. I can say that without shame. How can I? I remember who I was, and how I still am. That God loves you […]

A Million Little Miracles
#confession: I used to want to desperately experience miracles and signs and wonders like the old church. It was an entire obsession. I would scour YouTube to watch miraculous healings and people passing out under the “presence.” I would literally pray, “WHY CAN’T THIS BE ME!” And then. The Lord baptized me with the Holy […]

What That Mouth Do, Part 3
Part 3: You’re Listening for the SOUND Let’s continue on. First thing’s first: Jesus spoke what God said. “The Father Who has sent Me commanded Me what to say, and how to say it.” Whew CHILLLLLLLLLEEEEEE. I’m trying to be all grammatical but this little snippet here is a sniper that landed 3 direct death […]

Taming the Bear Inside
“And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be transformed and progressively changed [as you mature spiritually] by the renewing of your mind [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what the will of God is, that which is […]

Holiness ain’t just your clothes
When people talk about being holy, it is rarely with any real practical application other than to try and externally dictate things that don’t really mean anything as a long term matter of spirit–you know the lists: can’t cut your hair, dresses to the floor, no makeup, no fun activities or sports, no pants (lotta […]
