Read MoreIntroducing the 11th Annual Making Your Home a Haven Bible Study
Welcome to the 11th Annual Making Your Home a Haven Bible Study! 11 years ago, we began this series and never could I have imagined how much it would resonate with so many women around the world! Our souls desperately need a deeper connection with God. So many times we try to mask our struggles, pain, confusion or emptiness by keeping busy and distracted, eating food, going on vacations, seeking success or elevating certain relationships. While many of these things are blessings from God, they are not good substitutes FOR God. This Bible Study is going to help you slow […]

Read MoreYour Thoughts Have Consequences: Here’s How to Change Your Mind
Did you know that neuroscientists estimate that we think 60,000 thoughts a day!!! That’s a lot of thoughts flowing through our mind all day long and here’s the kicker…God holds us responsible for those 60,000 thoughts. Our thoughts have consequences. Everything we say and do and all of the choices we make are first birthed in the mind. Our body recognizes when we are being inundated with wrong thoughts. When we are stressed and worried or bitter and angry – often that leads to a headache, stomachache, neck ache or not being able to sleep. Sometimes it can even lead […]

Read More100% of Us Will Die. Are You Prepared for Judgement Day?
The fear of death is real. Everywhere we look, we see people with masks on. Daily, the news media gives us an update of how many have died of Covid and so…at some point I began to wonder…before Covid, what was the typical number of deaths a day? Did you know that around 150,000 people die a day, around the world? In 2015, 57 million people died. Death is a natural part of life and friends, whether Covid is around or not – one statistical fact remains… 100% of Us Are Going to Die. 100% of us are going to […]

Read MoreHow to Follow God Instead of Your Emotions
Not long ago, I sat across the table at a restaurant with a friend. She mentioned how she was feeling spiritually discouraged and as soon as she was open and honest with her feelings – I joined her. I said – me too! Specifically, I was so frustrated with how long I had been praying for some things. God seemed to be answering no – or wait. I could hardly stand it! My patience was thin and I wanted to see the power of God at work. My friend nodded in agreement – she was at the exact same place […]

My 15 year old daughter recently got an Echo. Most nights, I sit on her bed and we chat about life as she falls asleep. Every now and then, while we are talking, the Echo will light up and start to talk to us. It’s a little disturbing and it’s uncomfortable to think that it is listening to everything we say! Have you ever been in a store and you noticed cameras watching you? Even if you are doing nothing wrong, it just feels strange and a little uncomfortable. Then there’s baby monitors. I used to love to listen to […]

2020 has been a rough year. All of us have been affected by the chaos that the Coronavirus has caused. The stay-at-home orders, political posturing, violence and riots in the streets and mask mandates have ripped our country apart. We are a divided people. We are divided over whether masks work and if we should wear them. We are divided over which news network is giving us the correct information. We are divided over stay-at-home orders and how far the government can go with their reach. We are divided over Trump vs. Biden. We are divided over whether the cops […]
