Climate change is coming. Examine all the models, and you will find that humans are contributing to the rapid approach of the end. Unfortunately, there is no way to stop the Earth from melting from the intense heat. God said it will happen because of His judgment, not because we have too many cows …
Consumed with Jesus: 2 Peter 1
By the third night of dreaming about all the details of Charlie Kirk’s murder and his murderer, I finally realized that I needed a social media break. Nearly every post on my social media feed and every news article in my news apps centered on this tragic event. While I grieve the state our country …
Won Without the Word
I get quite a few messages from women asking for prayer and guidance when it comes to living with a lost or backslidden husband. From experience, I know what it is like to live with an unsaved husband who claimed salvation. It was confusing and frustrating. I did not live up to the challenge from …
Acceptable and Reasonable Sacrifice
“It is not supposed to be this way” is a common refrain in this generation. I do not ever remember my grandmother complaining about the trauma she endured throughout the dust bowl and Great Depression, though I do know she was shaped by those experiences. Neither of my grandfathers served in World War II …
Back to School: A Study of 1 Peter
School supply lists and new teacher meetings announce the return of the orderly routines of another school year. The children groan and the parents cheer this day every year, unless the parents homeschool, which is a post for another day! 😊 With the new school year comes the teaching and the testing meant to …

Life is busy. Family units are often separated, leaving young mothers to navigate family life with little to no older women in her life to help with questions or support. Church classes are usually separated by age, disallowing the older women and younger from getting to know one another. Sometimes there is little time for …

Navigating the Unspoken Things
The unspoken things will break your heart, and rarely will those untouched by their confusing events know how to help someone else through them. I speak of mental disorders specifically, but every person is touched by some unspoken word that cannot be formed into a prayer request. Having spent more time that I ever …
Welcoming Leviathan
The description of the fire-breathing dragon in Job has always intrigued me. You can find it in Job 41. The King James renders its name “leviathan,” and the end of the chapter calls him the king over all the children of pride. This is the very last thing God describes before Job declares his repentance. …
