No Rooftop Needed| Holy Hygge Marriage
There is a Proverb in the Bible that states “Better to live on a corner of the roof than share a house with a quarrelsome wife.” (Proverbs 21:9 NIV) Other translations read as contentious, brawling, and nagging woman but one translation really caught my attention: the Brenton Septuagint Translation that reads “It is better to dwell […]

The Truth About Hurt
I am currently going through a divorce. It is what it is. I cannot change it. I cannot go back to the way things were, and in all honesty I don’t want to. As each day passes I see more and more the reality that this truly is a blessing but I still hurt. Hurt […]

Overcoming Rejection
In ministry you need an aggressive mindset. Hear me clearly when I say you need an aggressive mindset, not aggressive behavior.

WHOLEness | The Cross is Enough
Integrated Wellness begins within the soul. We cannot heal if we do not include all aspects of our lives and the soul is the biggest, yet most neglected, aspect of our lives.It is the soul that is damaged by hurtful words. It is the soul that is guarded when “enough is enough.” It is the […]

Falling Apart Yet Held Together
My life is a hot mess at any given time of the day. Hell it’s a mess even in my sleep and if you were able to join in my dreams you would see the truth to that statement. I do not have it all together. I fall apart on a regular basis because I have a damaged heart. […]

Perfection is A Lie
Writing a memoir about the worst parts of your life is so difficult and yet so healing. Today I am editing the chapter on my hellacious relationship with food over the years. Some of this is so embarrassing. I cannot believe the lengths I went to just to “look perfect” and the irony of […]
