The God Who Sees, even my petty Heart

Blog· Thoughts · 6 minute read

That I, a grown woman in ministry, with a strong sense of calling and deep security in Christ, still longed for that nod. That “I see you. Thank you.” I don’t think that’s wrong. I really don’t. God wired us with a longing for connection and affirmation. Scripture even encourages us to “outdo one another in showing honor” (Romans 12:10). There’s beauty in honoring each other well. But what happens when that doesn’t come? That’s where my mini heart-tantrum started.

Is it OK to Send My Kids to Public School?

Thoughts · 4 minute read

We Can (and Should!) Celebrate America!

Thoughts · 5 minute read
