Helping Women Find Their Passion, Purpose and Power in Christ
The transition from summer to autumn can come with mixed feelings. If you’re like me, I’m torn between wanting the fun of warm summer nights, swimming at the lake, and enjoying concerts in the park to never end, and at the same I find myself longing for normal routines and the schedules that come with […]
Recently my family went through a difficult season of trial that we didn’t ask for, one that felt like a personal attack, and was completely wrong and unfair. As the people leading the attack spread lies and half-truths, I felt anxious, fearful, and helpless. I felt like a caged animal whose freedom had been taken […]
For much of my life, I felt like I was caught between two worlds. Like I was trying my best to live a life for God and follow His leading, but at the very same time, I felt controlled by sin. In one moment, I was completely confident in myself, and in the next I […]

Our pastor had just called the moms in the congregation to stand for their annual Mother’s Day recognition. They deserved […]
