“Death and life are in the power of the tongue…” Everyone reads this and thinks, “Yep, people need to watch what they say to ME.” Meanwhile, we’re out here talking to ourselves like we’re the villain in our own story. We say stuff like: Then we’re confused when our spirit feels like it got hit by a truck. Let’s be honest: Half the battles we fight are because we keep speaking death over our own day before it even starts. Your words don’t just hit the air, they hit you. They shape your attitude, your hope, your confidence, and your…

Some Days Life Hits Hard Let’s be real… some days life hits so hard you start Googling “How to disappear but still pay bills.” I mean… whew. If struggle had a VIP list, half of us would have lifetime memberships. And listen, when I was writing my book… I was THIS CLOSE to throwing the whole laptop across the room many times. I literally sat there thinking: “Why am I doing this? Who told me I had the audacity to write a book? Who’s even going to read it? Or even care.” But every time I tried to quit, God…

The Sin We Love to Ignore … BUT JESUS WOULD’VE DRAGGED US FOR IT We’ll call out lying in a heartbeat. Stealing? We’ll act like it just made the front page of Christian TMZ. Adultery? Whole committees form. Gossip? Everybody suddenly becomes a prophet. But the one thing Jesus talked about more than ALL of that? The sin most Christians won’t even blink at? Worry. Yep. The “acceptable” sin — the one we treat like it’s a spiritual emotional support animal. Jesus said it plain: (And He wasn’t dropping Pinterest suggestions — He meant that.) But we dress it up,…

For Anyone Spending the Holidays Without Family The holidays can be beautiful… but they can also be lonely, especially for the ones who don’t have family to celebrate with — or whose family isn’t safe, present, or healthy to be around. If that’s you this season, hear me clearly: You are not forgotten. You are not less-than. You are not invisible. Some families are born. Some are chosen. And some are built by God through the people He places in our path — friends, coworkers, church families, neighbors, even strangers who end up feeling like home. If this season feels…

I’ll be real—Job used to be one of my least favorite stories in the Bible. It felt heavy, confusing, almost unfair. I didn’t get it. But once I finally understood what Job’s story was actually showing me? It became one of my favorites. Job reminds us that faith isn’t proven when life is easy. It’s proven when everything feels like it’s falling apart and you still choose to trust God anyway. His story shows us that God is still present in loss, still faithful in confusion, and still good even when the season isn’t. So many of us are living…

Book 3: Mess, Mercy, and Miracles: Living Faith Out Loud Section 1: Faith That Heals the Heart Before we can live our faith out loud, we have to let God heal what’s within. This section is about allowing Him to mend the wounds we’ve carried – the ones that keep us stuck in cycles of hurt, fear, or shame. Healing isn’t about forgetting what happened; it’s about surrendering it to the One who can make it whole. When we give God our broken pieces, He rebuilds us with peace that last. Devotional Topics: 1. Forgiveness and letting go of resentment2.…

Horoscopes Can’t Hold Your Future – But God Can God is clear about where we’re supposed to seek guidance – and where we’re not. Scripture doesn’t leave room for psychics, mediums, fortune-tellers, tarot cards, or astrology charts. Those things might look “harmless” or “fun,” but God calls them out directly as practices that pull our hearts away from Him. Why? Because anything that tries to predict your future without God in it… leads you away from the One who already holds your future. Deuteronomy 18:10-12 (NIV) reminds us that these things are detestable to the Lord. Not because He wants…
