Surrender
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In you’re your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6 How do you respond when you are confused or afraid of the future? Anxiety disorders affect an estimated 42.5 million individuals annually of the adult population. We spend time discussing potential societal implications of this mental health decline such as the increased use of social media, a heavier weight/awarene
Cultivate
John 15:5 "I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” Earlier this month, I had the privilege of serving as a chaperone at our high school summer camp and spending time with many of the same 11th grade girls I have the opportunity to teach small group to throughout the year. The theme of camp was Cultivate, centered around John 15:5. Throughout the week, we were reminded that h
Loving Radically
1 Corinthians 16:14 Let all that you do be done with love. Many of us can recognize this verse! We may have heard it in a sermon, seen it on social media, purchased a sign from Hobby Lobby, or even written it on a notecard. This verse is beautiful and encouraging. What a wonderful reminder to seek to do all that we do with love! Even though it is a beautiful verse that is quoted often, it also gives us a charge to do all that we do in love. Before I went to college, I receive

Unreasonable Expectations of Motherhood
Being a mom is one of the greatest joy’s of my life.

If you are a young mom, that
Mothering: It's Worth It
Do you remember the family series that Mid-Way did a couple of months ago? I can still remember the farming analogies and Pastor Grant saying, “Don’t quit. Don’t give up. It’s worth it.” Just recently, I feel like I’ve been clinging to that reminder. I am in a different life stage than a lot of you, but right now I find myself with two kids under three and another on the way! I need to hear “it’s worth it” everyday as I change the 10th diaper, redirect a toddler who’s having
Mothering to His Glory
Romans 8:28 “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” As a little red-headed girl all I wanted to do was be a mom. I mothered puppies and abandoned bunnies and kittens that were born in my Grandparent’s barn. I fed them through eyedroppers, and they thrived. Whether you’re a mom or not, you still are mothering someone. Maybe it’s a niece or nephew, neighbor, or little one that you teach in sch
