In: Prayer

One of the speakers on the XXXChurch team ended his own life yesterday, and I don’t know how to handle it. His name is Steve Glisan. You can watch his story by clicking here [below]. You can read some of his blogs he wrote on [...]

16 Jan 2010I received this email today from World Vision and wanted to share it for those who may not be on their distribution list or sponsor a child. Please consider serving those in Haiti through this wonderful organization.

Jesus Gets Good PR: Blogging Uganda
12 Jan 2010This is Daniel
Daniel is the adorable 10-year-old that we sponsor from Mexico through World Vision. Even though we have never met him, we love him. I love hearing about him, praying for him, and receiving beatuiful art work from him like what we received today (aren’t his flowers cute!).
I know that Daniel has 3 siblings, [...]
A Prayer for Boldness
In: Prayer
19 Sep 2009If you’ve been following my blog you know that I often blog my thoughts from my personal bible study. Recently I started reading through 2 Corinthians for the first time in years. Honestly, I’d forgotten how great this book is. Over the past few days I have been stuck on one particular verse: 2 Corinthians [...]
Microwaves, Slot Machines, and Prayer
In: Luke| Prayer| faith| inspiration
26 May 2009A large part of the message at my church this Sunday was on instant miracles in an instant culture.

The thought was that we want instant answers to prayer (and might I add affirmative answers [...]

Clearing Some Time
In: Matthew| Prayer| christian living| faith
7 May 2009I’m a wife and mom of three kids ages 17, 7, and 6. I also work full time at a rather demanding job and am a part time grad student. Between household responsibilities, work responsibilities, my travel schedule, class schedule, and school assignments I am booked solid. I thought about cutting and pasting a snapshot [...]
Keeping it Real
In: Matthew| Prayer| christian living| church
4 May 2009Matthew 5 and 6 are some serious verses. It’s hard to pick out one tiny section to blog about when you have almost all of the Sermon on the Mount to consider. Matthew chapter 6:5,6 really stood out to me and made me think of an old Dave Chappelle sketch called “When Keeping it Real [...]
Accepting My Opportunity
28 Apr 2009There is so much to cover in these two chapters that I don’t even know where to begin. So, as an intro let me start with a question. What is up with Mark 8:22-26?
I have no answers or insights and would love some feedback. So far we have seen Jesus do tons of far [...]
