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 …
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 …

Things Jesus Didn’t Say (Part 1): Don’t Talk About Me
This is a sponsored post that contains affiliate links. This is the first post in a series I’m starting called “Things Jesus Didn’t Say.” We’re going to talk about things that the church, as a whole, tends to act in a way that Jesus said. These posts will probably all be short and “sweet.” …
Don’t Follow Your Heart
This is a sponsored post that contains affiliate links. Someone has told you at some point to follow your heart. Almost guaranteed. And they may have been someone that wanted what was best for you and to see you grow. But here’s the thing: that is the exact opposite of what we should do. It …
Christian Relationship Goals (Part 2)
If you didn’t read Part 1 of this post from last week, go check that out and then come back here if you like to read things in order 😉 But just in case you didn’t read Part 1, last week I started writing about things we should look for in a future spouse. And …
