When God Smiles at You
Hello friend! Happy New Year! I’ve got a word of encouragement for you today. It’s one we don’t celebrate nearly as much in the body of Christ as we should, but one I want to be found sharing with anyone who’ll listen. First, some back story. Yesterday, I had the great pleasure of being with a group of women at my local First Methodist Church here
The Disembodied Hand, a chilly bump story just for you!
I hear tell some of you like a story that gives you chill bumps. Well, I’ve got a fairly creepy one for you. We’ll be reading straight from the fifth chapter of Daniel if you want to open your Word. However, I'm going to share it in storytelling style, so I’ll put my thoughts in italics and parenthesis to make double dog sure there’s no
The A-List is Draining the life out of you. Here’s how to get it back!
Hey friend, I'm meeting myself coming and going on the road right now, but you are never far from my mind. Honest!

And not because I think I've arrived. Goodness no,
On Squirrel Brains, Prayer Tips, and Pig Parties
Hello, friend! This past weekend I enjoyed a wonderful retreat with the ladies of my home church. I had no sooner arrived Friday afternoon when I pulled my camera out and taped the following clip.

A little Saturday something to help you in your walk with Jesus
Hey friend, that little home studio I threw together is already coming in quite handy! I usually have to get in warp mode when I have to do a zoom interview with a radio station, podcast, conference director, etc. Now, I just have to sit down and talk. As you know, the talking part comes easy. LOL! Be nice. God don't like ugly. But, here's
The Humor, the Hard, and the Holy…God is in it all
Hey friend, I hope this finds you doing well. It's a lovely Saturday night here and I've got a story for you. It begins with this first pic. I told it on social earlier, and then I decided that I really wanted to tell you, too. I had a blast with the women of Swartz Baptist Church last night. It was my first meeting of the 2023

Hey friend! I'm working on launch details for my next book, Seizing the Good Life, releasing June 13, 2023 and I’m getting ridiculously excited! Short answer for why this book, now? Because John’s gospel has given me a glorious conviction of how present and willing Jesus is to help believers keep believing! I want us to celebrate that truth together, and I want to give
An update on that meaningful little Christmas…
Dear reader, You may recall my stated goal to "have myself a meaningful little Christmas." Well, grab a Christmas cookie and a comfy chair. Here's the rest of the story. Had you asked me how it was going this past Sunday, I would've said everything was right on track and progressing nicely. (Insert your favorite quote about the best laid plans.) The day before my extended
