Join me as we discuss the topic of worry and how it relates to Ruth. {If you are reading this in an email or feed – click here to view the video} I saw this quote recently on Facebook that said: Worry is a conversation you have with yourself about things you cannot change.

Read MoreFinding Comfort
In last week’s video, I challenged us to get uncomfortable and live outside of our comfort zone. This week I want to go the opposite way and talk about — Finding Comfort. Life is just plain hard for all of us and we all need comfort sometimes. What comforts you? Maybe a bowl of ice cream, chicken noodle soup, a bubble bath and a cozy soft blanket or maybe it’s a long talk with a friend that ends with a hug. Just this past week I made one of my favorite comfort foods – Crock Pot Macaroni and Cheese. Well, today […]

Read MoreOne Key to Living Well
There are many keys to living well.

So one key to living well is to love God and be in His Word! But today – I’m talking about another key to living well – and it’s based on our reading in Ruth chapter 1. So come join me on this short video to find out another key to living well! {If you are reading this in […]

Read MoreGod Is At Work In the Midst of the Mundane and the Pain (Ruth: Week 1)
In the midst of the ordinary and the mundane and the pain – it can be hard to see the hand of God. Sometimes the fear of the unknown, the loss of a loved one, or the basic daily hardships of life –can wear us down. What I love about the book of Ruth is that we see two very broken women – both widows and both unsure of what the future holds…move forward in faith. And its in the midst of the mundane and the pain that God begins to unfold a beautiful story that goes from ordinary […]
