As we continue studying the promises of God, we now come to promises that address one of the most common struggles people face: fear. Fear can appear in many different forms. It may come from uncertainty about the future, difficult circumstances, or situations that feel overwhelming.

The Promises of God (Part 3): God Is Near When We Are Broken
As we continue this series on the promises of God, we’re beginning with some of the promises that speak directly to the hardest seasons of life. Scripture doesn’t ignore pain, discouragement, or exhaustion.

The Promises of God (Part 2): God Never Leaves Us
In the first post of this series, we talked about how God’s promises are rooted in His character. Before we can understand individual promises, we have to understand the One who makes them. God doesn’t speak casually, and He doesn’t break His Word. Ever.Now, we’re beginning to look at specific promises from the list we’reContinue reading “The Promises of God (Part 2): God Never Leaves Us”
The Promises of God (Part 1): Building on What God Has Actually Said
When we talk about the promises of God, we have to begin with something simple but important. Not every verse in the Bible is automatically a personal promise to us in the same way.That doesn’t make Scripture weaker. It makes it deeper.This series started because someone told me they wanted to know more about theContinue reading “The Promises of God (Part 1): Building on What God Has Actually Said”
Jesus Didn’t Throw Stones
I know Jelly Roll’s story. His past isn’t a secret. Drug dealing. Prison. Mental health battles. Years of brokenness lived out loud. So when I watched him stand on a national stage at the Grammys and boldly give glory to God, I didn’t see a performance. I saw a man on fire for Jesus. IContinue reading “Jesus Didn’t Throw Stones”
Everything the Light Touches: Seeing God’s Truth Beyond our Comfort Zones
Would you rather listen than read? I was sitting quietly, typing Scripture as part of my goal to type out the entire Bible, when I came across Genesis 13:14-15. As I read God’s promise to Abram, something unexpected happened. My mind immediately jumped to The Lion King and that familiar scene where Mufasa tells SimbaContinue reading “Everything the Light Touches: Seeing God’s Truth Beyond our Comfort Zones”

When Silence Clarifies the Calling
PREFER TO LISTEN INSTEAD OF READ? There’s been a quiet stretch here, and that silence wasn’t accidental. Over the past several weeks, I stepped back from posting, not because the vision faded, but because God was doing deeper work beneath the surface. During this time, I was nurturing my new role as a children’s ministryContinue reading “When Silence Clarifies the Calling”
Obedience Doesn’t Take Holidays (But Grace Covers Busy Seasons)
The past couple of weeks have been very full. Family time, holiday preparations, and the kind of joyful busyness that somehow makes the days disappear faster than expected. Somewhere between celebrating, cooking, and enjoying the people God has placed in my life, my posting rhythm took a short holiday break of its own. I wantContinue reading “Obedience Doesn’t Take Holidays (But Grace Covers Busy Seasons)”
