Most of us want others to be honest with us in all situations. At least that is what we say. What about when the truth is hard? Life-changing? Some truths are easier to hear and accept than others. However, if the truth is truth, then it is always what we need to hear. One of… Continue reading A Hard Truth

Leaving a Legacy That Matters
You are leaving a legacy, lasting memories, habits, and examples to those around you. What will you be remembered for? As a Christian, you should desire to be remembered as loving Jesus, being faithful to serve Him, being faithful to church, and living in a way that brings others to Him. Our lives should be… Continue reading Leaving a Legacy That Matters
Living in an Instantaneous Society
In the world we live in, so many things are instant. We have a microwave that cooks faster than an oven, instant pots that not only cook foods quickly, but you can make a whole meal all at once, and of course, instant rice, coffee, oatmeal, and potatoes. Let’s not forget about instant entertainment, money… Continue reading Living in an Instantaneous Society
Choosing Faith in 2022
I don’t usually choose a word or phrase for the new year. I am more of a “take it one day at a time” type of person. I just try to live for Jesus day by day. I don’t even like committing to a doctor appointment that's three weeks out. I know, it's a problem. … Continue reading Choosing Faith in 2022
Submission for the Working Wife
I understand God has a different plan and design for each of us. My financial situation looks different than yours. How you’ve chosen to educate your children may be different. I am not going to degrade you for working outside of the home, for choosing public school, or for feeling like a better mom because… Continue reading Submission for the Working Wife
Who Said it Wouldn’t be Hard?
Too often we hope for the blessings and mountaintops of Christianity and choose to despise the valleys. Valleys are often dark, lonely, cool, damp, uncomfortable, and there’s only one way out: through it. The valleys are not something we would ever ask or hope for. But, as you’ll learn, we can’t live without them. Sadly,… Continue reading Who Said it Wouldn’t be Hard?
Respect in Marriage: Part Three
Ephesians 5:21 “Submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of God.” Marriage is a constant balance of giving and taking, meeting in the middle so both spouses are pleased with the results and direction of the marriage. Some requests your spouse may have will not make sense to you. You may often find yourself… Continue reading Respect in Marriage: Part Three
Respect in Marriage: Part Two
Wife, this one is mostly for you. I am speaking to myself here as well. Please hear my heart here. We all struggle with this to some degree from time to time. I am not trying to pick on you. We hear plenty from the pulpit and other male teachers on this topic. But just… Continue reading Respect in Marriage: Part Two
Do You See Christ?
In Matthew chapter 2 we see the wise men searching for Jesus. They come to the palace, where you’d expect a king to be, and they find Herod. He feels threatened by the news of a new King in town. He calls his closest advisers: the scribes and Pharisees. These men gave their lives to… Continue reading Do You See Christ?
What Will You Do With Jesus?
Jesus is Lord, Saviour, Creator, and more whether we accept it or not. Our opinion of Him does not change Who He is. Christ was born into a physical body some 2,000 years ago with one purpose: to save sinners. That’s everyone ever born, other than Him. Throughout Scripture we see His life and ministry,… Continue reading What Will You Do With Jesus?
