Cultivating Courage
Text: Joshua 1:8-9 The Lord has been speaking to me a lot about courage lately. Since the beginning of this year, God has very much been at work in my heart, helping me to gain momentum in developing my dreams, desires, passions and gifts, and deploying them out where He has called.

What If ?
Recently I’ve been captivated by some great “What If?” questions that fall in line with my focus of “Making Things Happen in 2014.” I am a thinker, a brain-stormer by nature, and I love questions that inspire me and propel me in the direction of accomplishing the dreams and desires within my heart.

With temperatures creeping up near fifty over the past week, in addition to sunshine, blue skies, and the sight of grass, I am even more anxious for this fresh, new season to get here. Although I find… Read More
Wait. Confess. Pray.
Ever have one of those days? Or one of those weeks? Or maybe those days and weeks go on for months, or maybe a year, even longer? A period of time where it just feels like one. thing. after. another. You ask and think to yourself, “Really? Again? When will this end? What on earth did I do to deserve this? Will… Read More
