Sometimes prayer seems futile. It’s hard to imagine things actually changing when we voice our concerns to God and ask him to fix what’s wrong. Because sometimes we’ve prayed and seen exactly zero results. That friend keeps going under with their addiction. The cancer doesn’t go away. The better job opportunity goes to someone else….

How do you bring a country to its knees? How do you make sure people (smart, logical people!) are so emotionally exhausted and terrified they are willing to lay down their rights (especially the rights of their neighbors) in the name of “safety”? How do you get people to turn on each other so that…
Fall and other things
I love this time of year! The air is a bit cooler, the leaves start to change, you can drink coffee all day without overheating. Kids are back in school, and the holidays are right around the corner! Coffee tastes better on a cool morning! The squirrels are bustling around preparing for winter! Glorious fall!…
Nothing But The Truth
Things that are true stand the test of time. Things that are true can hold their own against doubts and misgivings. Things that are true will not be washed away in the flood of popular opinion or made untrue by lies. The truth will be there when all else is exposed for the nothing it…
Where Do You Stand?
I don’t want any part of it. It’s not good for you, although it may appear that way for a short while. You may not feel the consequences yet, but you will. It’s going to kill you, actually. We’ve got to stop looking only at the short term, because the future ramifications will be here…
Sea-ing Differently
I don’t want to write this blog. I’m going to do it anyway. First of all, I want you to know something. I love you. Maybe I don’t even know you, but I love you just the same. You are a person created in God’s image. You are valuable, and you are loved. There has…
Two Years
It’s been a wild ride so far. We were married six months when the Coronavirus hit. I am so thankful we had normalcy the entirety of our dating, engagement, wedding, and first six months of marriage! Praise the Lord! Getting used to being a wife and a brand new mom (to a four year old…
On Protecting Others
We must protect the most vulnerable among us! For those of you wishy-washy on this stance, let me mask you a question: Do you even care that people are dying? Twenty-nine and a half million people have died so far this year alone, according to worldometers.info! Twenty-nine and a half million in 8 months!That number…
This Appointment
This past year and a half has taught me some things. Mostly that human nature hasn’t changed much. But also that God is faithful and good even when the world is basically a dumpster fire. I think a valid word for many over the last eighteen months would be “disappointment.” I can personally relate to…
Jenga!
There’s a lot of deconstruction going on in the church. It’s kinda like Jenga. “I don’t agree with this piece, so lemme pull it out. Um..this one seems a bit harsh..see ya! Ooohh..this piece isn’t going to work for me, either..” Sooner or later, the whole thing comes crashing down. Now, you’re left with two…
