What Message Do You Carry

Seven weeks ago I moved to Kona, Hawaii for a 6-month training and equipping season with Youth with a Mission. I am a part of the “Fire and Fragrance” school, centered around prayer and worship.

Finishing with Excellence

Happy May Day! As you begin trading out the sweaters for t-shirts and the coats for windbreakers, may you feel the Holy Spirit clothing you in your new attire for the coming season! Perceiving with open eyes and receiving with open hands the new thing He is doing within and through me has been my experience the last few weeks …

Psalm 18

I am so far from God's standard of faithfulness, integrity, purity, and humility that David sang in this psalm would bring His reciprocated qualities. Yet, when He gazes at me, He sees the radiant robes of righteousness He died to wrap around me.

Sincere Love

Paul instructed the church in Rome to honor each other above themselves. "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality." Roman 12:12-13 My design is to bring the Good News of Jesus to the ends of the earth; my calling is to live …

Welcome to Brazil! Bem-vindo ao Brasil!

After the standard "hurry up to wait" procedure at the airport, my travel mates Donna, Morgan, and I boarded our 10-hour flight from Chicago to São Paulo, Brazil.

Three months out of this year (March-May), I found myself Instacart shopping for others so I'd have a reason …

Prayers Up, Head Down

To learn a lesson we usually have to live through the experience. Our parents and teachers will sound like a broken record repeating a truth we'd do well to live by. For some reason it takes living through the roller coaster to truly grasp what they were trying to tell us all along! Imagine for …

Uplift Women

It's a special Motivation Monday when I get to introduce this lady who's like a sister to me. We wonder amused and amazed at how far God has brought us from freshmen at the private high school we coincidentally attended together!
