The Battle Cry of Tharseo (from Gospel-Centered Discipleship)

The Battle Cry of Tharseo

At the end of 2020, I decided I wanted to spend more time engaging in activities that encourage me and give me hope. One of those activities is writing.* So, I spent the better part of 2021 in a writer’s mentorship program, growing my connections with other writers and flexing my writing muscles (a lot). […]

Why I Write

I don’t believe in accidents.  Well, let me be a bit more specific. I don’t believe people are the result of accidents.  Have you ever considered how unique each of us is? We can be identified by our fingerprints, our facial structure, and even how we walk. Scientists now believe our tongue prints can be […]

when we know our strengths and seek to grow in those specific areas the sky is the limit

When I was putting together Adopted for Daily Life: A Devotional for Adopting Moms, I knew I wanted my friend Melissa to contribute. We had met in Maryland years prior when we were both involved in foster care. Since then, I’d seen her grow a community supporting adopting/fostering moms and I knew she would be a […]

When stuff’s not fine

because sometimes the way through is not clear

I told myself I wasn’t going to write publicly about our recent cross-country move until I had made it to “the other side,” not just physically but situationally as well. You see, I’ve written all the chapters leading up to the move, but haven’t been able to write the ending yet because, well, it hasn’t […]

This goodness—the idea that God is incapable of anything that is not inherently good—should be a life vest wrapped around my every word, thought, and deed. Yet, the idea, “this isn’t right” feels like an undercurrent always capable of pulling me into the depths of despair.
