As I was thinking about this, I was thinking it would be mainly for single Christian girls. But no matter what stage of life you’re in or if you’re a guy, I think we all need this reminder – and often. Or maybe it’s just me. “Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the …
Book Update — Thank you.
I’m beyond amazed between the softball tournament and More than a Savior that you guys give the way that you do. Also, my computer for some reason wouldn’t let me crop this on WordPress and I wasn’t feeling editing any further today so I’m sorry you have to look at my whole computer screen to see the …
No Answer IS An Answer
“Sometimes looking for answers only leads to more questions. And sometimes you’re betting off not knowing.”-Gossip Girl, “The Fugitives” (5.23) There are a lot of things in life that happen and we’ll never know why. A family member passes away; someone close to us commits suicide; someone stops being our friend. But why? Why do …
Live Every Day As If It’s Your Last
I haven’t been writing much lately because there’s just so much going on in this crazy brain that to boil it down to a single 300-600 word blog post is near impossible. I’m just going to start off telling you a little about what’s on my brain today and we’ll go from there. When I started writing …

Don’t Let Your Enemies Become Friends
“Satan will do all he possibly can do to remind you of past sin… He will tell you the Lord is disapppointed in you… never believe a word of this” (Stanley, 2008). Let’s get one thing straight: Satan is NOT your friend. He never was, he isn’t now, and he never will be, under any …
Yeah, I Wanna Get Married Young
Yeah, I do want to get married young. And I’ll openly talk about that desire. But if you dismiss that idea as stupid or never going to happen, I’ll probably shut down. Why the heck do people think it’s okay to shut down other’s dreams? Let me rephrase that … Why would you want to …
Take Me to Church…Literally
In my last post, I mentioned that I had left the church I had gone to for almost half of my life and that I had been on the quest to find a new church. I decided that I wanted to do a post about why it’s important to find another church after leaving a …
Talk About Politics!
In general in the church, politics seems to be a topic that is avoided like the plague. And, quite honestly, I don’t understand. Jesus talked openly and honestly about politics. If you are following Jesus and doing everything to honor and serve Him, it’s okay to have a conversation about how you view politics or …
Never Stop Praying
I recently went through a major disappointment – I had been praying about a certain situation for a long time only to find out something that would seemingly make that happening impossible. But here’s the thing, all along the way, I truly believed I felt God leading me in that direction. (No, I’m not going …
