Something Teresa does weekly on our Grace Sisters facebook page is posts a “Word of the Week”. We are prompted to write what that word means to us in our walk with Jesus or in our lives in general. I absolutely love reading all of the amazing responses the ladies in our group have for […]
Cultural Christianity
I lived a lot of my life thinking that attending church was an unnecessary part of Christianity. I remember being young and hearing people say “I don’t have to go to church to be Christian”. Going into my teenage and early adult years I adopted that mentality. It wasn’t until I was older and found […]
Testimony
You likely have heard the word testimony before and may have listened to others share their personal experiences, but have you ever put much thought into your own testimony? I think we often make the mistake of believing that if we didn’t have some earth shattering major transformation in our lives that our testimony doesn’t […]
Overwhelmed
The definition of overwhelmed is: “to bury or drown beneath a huge mass”. Have you ever felt that way? Like there was a weight on your chest, that no matter how hard you tried it was like the lungs in your chest no longer had room to expand? Unfortunately, I know that feeling […]
Prayer, Scripture, Praise
Once again, the time has come to make new year’s resolutions. You know; getting in shape, reading more, eating less, slowing down, being more productive, staying more hydrated. Unless you’re like me and had previously decided to give up on some of those dreams entirely. At least that was my mentality going into 2023. Now […]
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 […]
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 […]
The Voice of God
Over the last several months we have been going through a study in the book of Joshua. The other day I was reading again in Joshua 7 and some things really jumped out at me. Things that I think if we aren’t careful we could miss but they are so very applicable for today in […]
Available
This past week while sitting in my daughter’s gymnastics class, I had an experience with God. I was listening to worship music and scrolling along on my phone when the song “Christ Be Magnified” by Cody Carnes came on. Right there, in the middle of all the other moms quietly passing the time, it was […]
How do you want to be remembered?
How do you want to be remembered? When I was younger I didn’t put a lot of thought into that question. I think we’re often guilty of only bring that thought to our minds when we say goodbye to a loved one or are faced with some kind of life change. To be honest, I […]
