Joy
Joy. It’s one of my favorite words. Joyful is a word that is often used to describe me and if you know me, you know I love finding joy in the small simple things. I don’t require big gestures of grandeur to be able to find the joy. Joy is also the name of my […]

Redefining Your Worth
Let me begin by asking you this simple question to ponder as you read: How would you define your self-worth in this season? In high school, I struggled a lot with my self esteem and self worth. I was brought up believing that “God made [me] special, just the way [I am]”. I believed that, […]

Hungering For Christ: A Prayer
Lord, hear my prayer. I want to live a changed life. I want my radical love for you to quite literally overtake everything. I don’t want a boxed-in faith.
