Who's talking to you? Who are you listening to? What are they influencing you to think about, to do or to become? Words are powerful.

Why are you here? What are you here for? That’s the deeper question of every human heart and it's a question about purpose. No matter what age we are, we all want to know why we're alive and what our purpose is on this earth. We all want to know that our lives matter for something…if we were meant for more. What if there is more to this life? (Spoi…

Mother’s Day used to hurt my heart. Like a lot of you, my little girl dreams were to grow up, get married and have children. From the time I can remember I pretended my dreams to come true; playing house, mothering my baby dolls, and honing my God-given need to nurture— because I was wired for it. In fact, all women are wired by God to mother and n…

People leave relationships for all kinds of reasons– maybe it’s a lack of commitment, a lack of communication, or a lack of meaningful, honest conversation. They drift apart from one another and then their interests turn elsewhere. It’s the same with our relationship with Jesus. Like a spouse who may love their partner but has drifted away, so are …

Prayer is a vital necessity to our spiritual life. So, why is it so hard to pray? In the Christian faith, we pray to our God who is alive, who talks to us, and we can have a conversation with him.
