Reading through my blog or scrolling through my Instagram feed, it might look like I have this Christian living thing pretty figured out. And while I won’t ever claim to have it “figured out,” I am living more in line with Jesus than I ever have before. But, I want you to know, it’s been […]
Every year I ask God to reveal to me an area I need to grow in personally and spiritually. Over the past few years, I’ve felt prompted to be present, love better, and most recently, pray more. Usually, I’m like Gideon with the fleece (Judges 6:36-40), asking God to confirm what He wants me to […]
When showering is a major accomplishment and exhaustion is your daily companion, it’s not likely a Bible is getting read. This isn’t something to feel guilt over, it’s just the reality of a mom with a new baby. After having a baby in January, I didn’t crack open my Bible for a couple of months. […]

Today I’m excited to have Danielle from Free Indeed here to share about praying like Paul. The focus of Paul’s prayers might surprise you! “Pray without ceasing.” 1 Thessalonians 5:17 is a short verse many of us have put to memory and yearn to practice. What makes it even more incredible is that the person […]
Each day my husband and I stared at the million broken pieces of our life, trying to figure out how it could possibly go back together again. The uncertainty of our future weighed heavy, making each day a struggle to get through. And as the days went by, our hope dwindled. We knew God was […]
Today I am excited to have Kris Reece here to share about overcoming worried, anxious, and toxic thoughts by renewing your mind. I love her practical steps for putting Romans 12:2 into practice and hope you will give her a warm welcome in the comments. On a cold March morning, I was jolted out of […]
Today I am excited to have Ashleigh Rich here to share what she has learned from making fasting a regular discipline in her life. Every Wednesday for the past couple of weeks I’ve had to make the same choice: am I going to fast today, or not? I made a commitment to start fasting on […]
