Encouragement for Christian Women, and a Few Laughs Along the way
I think sometimes people get the wrong idea about Christianity. Like, perhaps it is a ticket to heaven. Once you obtain your ticket, you may go right back to living however you want to, with this security that you will live one day forever in heaven with Jesus. This is not how the saved life …
One of the things I love about the Holy Spirit is He can/will speak to us anywhere, anytime as long as we are listening for Him. This morning He gave me this thought at the gym. It was so good I want to share it with you. While walking from one area of Planet Fitness …
It’s been said that witnessing to another person, or sharing the gospel, is simply one poor man telling another poor man from whence he got his bread. If you purchased some life changing remedy for something, or a gadget that made your life insanely better, wouldn’t you want to shout it from the rooftops? We …
1 Corinthians 6:12-20 reminds us that our body belongs to the Lord once we are a child of God. “Now the body is…for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.” 1 Corinthians 6:13. What we do with our physical self matters to God. (This includes your mind, your outward appearance, your health, etc.) So …

We try to guard ourselves the best we can, …
Do you ever just take a good look at yourself in the mirror? I mean just stop what you’re doing and look? I’ll be honest, sometimes it is very hard to look at myself, see blemishes and not try to cover up or justify them. I don’t want others to see my faults or failures. …
Today’s blog post comes from Acts 20 and 21. While doing my studies this morning about the way Paul and others behaved themselves in the early Church, I noticed many wonderful qualities. Qualities of a loving Pastor, a faithful community of believers, and behaviors characteristic of both. I want to share these with you. If …
