This guest blog is written by one of my dear mentors from Washington, Arlene Koski. God started knitting our hearts together shortly after I met Arlene. I quickly asked her to mentor me, knowing I was desperate for connections with people further along in their walk with the Lord. Her reply? "Yes, but only if … Continue reading Tug of War

Overcoming Defeat
I had the honor of sharing a few thoughts at Liberty Church on Sunday and wanted to post it here for any that missed it. ❤ I believe God wants you to know that He’s with you and He’s for you. He has not forsaken you or forgotten you; you are not abandoned or alone. … Continue reading Overcoming Defeat
Face the Pain
I received an advanced reader copy of The Complicated Heart: Loving Even When It Hurts by Sarah Mae from B&H Publishing; this is my honest review. This book is a beautiful story.

My mom had told Alexa to play Lauren Daigle a few minutes before and the song Once and For All was playing. My … Continue reading Tagalong
The Father Who Sees
I've been reflecting on the heart and character of God, one attribute at a time. He gave me a new song months ago, more of an anthem maybe, that declares He is the Father who hears, sees, knows, cares, heals and loves. It's really repetitive but it usually comes to mind when there's an instrumental … Continue reading The Father Who Sees
