The Taylor Swift Conversation from a runaway daughter.
As a young teen, I loved clean white girl music. From Francesca Battistelli to Brittany Nicole to Taylor Swift. I had enough common sense and conviction to understand the importance of making sure the music I listened to was not profane or sexually explicit. I was intentional with my music choices, but within that fell…

Genetic Cleanliness
I’ve been reading through Genesis, and I came to the part where Esau and Jacob had their altercations. Every time I’ve read this I’ve always thought it’s so interesting that God would allow Esau to have everything stolen from him. Then Jacob be blessed. There are a few things that I noticed this time I…

Overcoming sin is part of the journey….
Overcoming sin is difficult at best….. but never impossible. It takes discipline that is learned and strength that is earned. The scriptures tell us about many of Gods favorite people. None of which were sinless. They built this resistance to sin. And when they failed the consequences they had to endure were terrible. The stories…

Let’s not pretend every year is a good one. I slew demons, permanently marred people, and screamed to (not at) God this year. This was my first full year that I did not have a season of suicidal thoughts since I was 8. Instead, I realized something major. Something I think every depressed suicidal person…

Stepping up and Stepping out.
God is calling me to fulfill the vision He granted me many years ago. Up to this point, I have lacked the self-discipline and courage to put into practice the habits and steps necessary for stepping into this abundant life. I stand here so uncomfortable. Nauseous really. Feeling bare where He stripped away so many…

A reflection of the younger me.
There aren’t many things scarier than birthing a child that is almost an exact copy of yourself. My precious daughter. My precious middle child. She is turning six on Sunday. She has empathy. She can sense every emotion in every room. She feels it. It’s her true and honest desire that everyone be happy. If…

Don’t let inflation make you question your parenting.
Last week I listened as a mother cried to a friend about how she feared being a bad mother, because of their current financial struggles. She said “we are not used to being poor. I don’t know how broke parents do this.” She talked about how her daughter had asked for a playhouse, and they…
