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.

Before I went to college, I receive

All this fascinated me, but deep down I felt nervous when missionaries came to visit. Was God callin
The Blessings of His Steadfast Love
My Bible study this year is studying The Book of Psalms, and it has amazed my soul to see God’s steadfast love. I believe when we soak in God’s steadfast love and meditate on His agape love, obedience comes as a desire. When I look at His wondrous works and see the majesty of His hand upon creation, it brings His light and His passion for His own front and center within my heart. Does obedience for any of us come easy? I don’t believe so. I think it is exceedingly hard to foc
The Vulnerability of Obedience
I remember Michelle sending out an e-mail about a ladies’ mentoring group that was going to be starting. If I was interested, the email said, I could read about it and see if it was something I could commit to. The program involved reading a book a month, meeting with women (I may or may not know) and growing in my faith. I thought, “This is going to be tough, but I really think this is something I could learn from.” I told my husband I really wanted to do it, and he said, “P
