    Love Is What? Re-examining The ‘Love Chapter‘

    October 24, 2021

    “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.” You’ve probably heard these words many times. And a good percentage of those times, you were all dressed up for a wedding ceremony. It’s the famous ‘love chapter’ found in 1 Corinthians 13. The chapter that graphically describes loveless actions as useless as a sounding gong. Accomplishing nothing but lots of noise. Yet as popular as this passage it, I recently discovered something that totally changed how I viewed it. I was prepping for our weekly life group, where we are talking about spiritual gifts. We are figuring out how we’ve been…

    Affirmations….Self Help or Jesus Help?

    December 3, 2020

    So, juicy little secret about me. I love yoga.  Not the intense kind of yoga that breaks me out in a violent sweat, but relaxing yoga.  More like sophisticated stretching.  It’s one of my favorite parts in my morning routine.  Most days I’m up shortly after 5 AM, when I enjoy the quietness of the morning.  I fix some coffee, read my Bible, then grab my yoga mat.  I love sipping on my coffee and listening to the soothing voice of the chick on YouTube walking me through a nice morning stretch. One YouTuber I follow just started a 30 day morning yoga challenge.  It’s right up my alley….a new…

    Lessons From The First Church: Inspiring Excitement For The Gospel

    November 13, 2020

    “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teachings and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.” Acts 2:42-47 Just imagine. You’re a member of…

    A Heart Revival: Poised to See God Move

    October 24, 2018

    “For it is God who works in you to will and act in order to fulfill His good purpose” Philippians 2:13 (NIV) A year or so ago, if you had asked me what I thought about old-fashioned church revival services, I would have described them as “extra services that go on way too long, when I could be doing a lot of other things”. With this being my mindset surrounding revivals, you can see why I was confused to see my husband’s face light up when he talked about preaching or singing at them. He truly has a passion for church revivals; and I really wanted to act like I…

    Potluck Panic: A Tale of Last Minute Mac ‘N Cheese

    October 17, 2018

      Baptist churches are notorious for a few different things.  Some good. Some bad.  One thing that is distinctly Baptist is the potluck.  Those of you who have not experienced the Baptist phenomenon of a lunch consisting of fatty comfort foods and more desserts than you can ever imagine, will need to use a little bit of imagination to appreciate the conundrum that I found myself in on this particular Sunday morning. As a ministry wife, Sunday mornings have a few more moving pieces than your normal church going family.  We are normally the first ones at the church.  Instruments are put in place. Media for the service is set.…
