This last week I was blessed enough to go to camp as a counselor for girls aged 14-18. We have a theme each year that usually has to do with building the girls up. We try to help them see their worth in Jesus and that they are loved, worthy, and beautiful, just the way […]
God Didn’t Answer
Have you ever prayed and asked God for something and He didn’t give it to you? For example, have you ever prayed for a sick loved one to get better but they died? Have you ever prayed for God’s hand of protection but there was an accident? Have you ever prayed for a lost loved […]
Life Lessons
If you come and visit my family at our homestead, you will quickly notice that my husband loves geese. Now, I don’t have any particular affection for these creatures. I find them, uppity, messy, loud and quite vindictive. If I had my way, and I’ve told them this, I would send them all to freezer […]
RICH STRIKE WHO?
Before Saturday, May 7, 2022, very few people would have recognized the name Rich Strike. Today, the horse, Rich Strike has become a household name with his come-from-behind victory in the 2022 Kentucky Derby. Just last year, Rich Strike’s owner purchased him for $30,000. Far less than the hundreds of thousands of dollars paid […]
Redeemed
I’m sitting here thinking about redemption. Jeremiah 29:11 has for many years been my favorite verse. I very rarely read the next three with it. Starting at verse 12, Then you will call on Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.13, You will seek Me and find Me when […]
Reflect on You
I have the privilege to be part of a late night show on Twitch called Pastors After Dark, on this show we take anonymously submitted questions about anything and everything, then we give a biblical answer to them live. During our off season, we’ve decided that we all need to be healthier, so we’re doing […]
It Really is That Simple
Have you ever confidently walked up to a store’s door and pushed the handle only to find it didn’t budge? Have you then proceeded to look down and realized the door says “pull”? That’s so embarrassing, right? You would think that after thousands of years of human adaptation we would be smart enough […]
COMPLAINING OR PRAYING?
As Easter approaches, we are all reminded of the great sacrifice Jesus made for us on the cross. Like many of you, I have been reading the account of Jesus’s journey to the cross this week and have found myself convicted of a bad habit. Complaining. Jesus was preparing to die for sins He […]
How to know your Eternity is secure.
Throughout my life I can honestly say I can’t remember a time that I didn’t believe in God. As a child, my family, sporadically, attended different churches with different denominations. I went to loads of Vacation Bible School programs during the summer and even was a part of the youth group here, at Grace, during […]
