While these messages may absolutely fit those situations, this post is not about personal relationships. This post is about systems.ContinueContinue reading “A Supportive Message to the Ones Rebuilding Faith Outside the Walls”

The D-Word: Dodging or Discernment?
As long time readers have already noticed, for the past couple of weeks I haven’t posted much. I’m aware—even I have noticed my own silence in almost uncomfortable ways, and felt that familiar tug: “Shouldn’t I be posting something? Shouldn’t I be showing up more?” But as I shared in my last blog post (andContinueContinue reading “The D-Word: Dodging or Discernment?”
Sunday Sessions: The Ache That Was Never Depression
I actually wrote this last week—but didn’t post it. I am posting it now, late, because God wouldn’t let me keep it buried. I didn’t post it because I was afraid. Genuinely afraid. Not because I didn’t believe it was true, but because I’ve been conditioned to be afraid of my own truth. Conditioned toContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: The Ache That Was Never Depression”
When the Yoke Breaks
In that day their burden will be lifted from your shoulders, their yoke from your neck; the yoke will be broken because you have grown so fat. (Isaiah 10:27) There’s a moment in every true spiritual journey when you realize that the burden didn’t disappear — you outgrew it. We talk a lot about GodContinueContinue reading “When the Yoke Breaks”
What Caregiving Is Really Like (Series): The Many Layers of Grief in Caregiving
Caregiving is a profound, sacred journey that takes us through various emotional, physical, and spiritual landscapes. Yet, one of the most complex and often misunderstood aspects of caregiving is the grief that caregivers experience. This grief is not just tied to the death of a loved one but begins long before that final loss. AndContinueContinue reading “What Caregiving Is Really Like (Series): The Many Layers of Grief in Caregiving”
What Caregiving Is Really Like (Series): Short-Term vs. Long-Term Caregiving — Two Different Worlds
Caregiving is not a one-size-fits-all experience. It takes many forms, shifts with time, and impacts people in wildly different ways depending on the duration, intensity, and emotional undercurrents involved. While most people have a general understanding of what it means to “be a caregiver,” very few grasp the depth of difference between short-term caregiving andContinueContinue reading “What Caregiving Is Really Like (Series): Short-Term vs. Long-Term Caregiving — Two Different Worlds”
A Continuing Discussion on Discernment: On Dependency, Communion, and Channeling
There’s a specific kind of fog that settles in when people lose their spiritual grounding but still want to sound enlightened. It gets thicker in comment sections, especially under videos like the one I recently saw of Eckhart Tolle. In the video, he’s talking about the difference between channeling and communion. And while his toneContinueContinue reading “A Continuing Discussion on Discernment: On Dependency, Communion, and Channeling”
Sunday Sessions: The Danger of Borrowed Anointing
There’s something God has been pressing into my spirit today with such unmistakable weight that I can’t let it go unsaid. This is not a poetic revelation. Today’s Sunday Session is pretty straightforward compared to most of what we share and my usual writing style. This is a simple, holy warning: You cannot wear someoneContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: The Danger of Borrowed Anointing”
Sunday Sessions: Patience in a Time of Depravity
There is no denying that we are living in an era of profound depravity. Every day, it seems as though society is unraveling further—morality is mocked, truth is distorted, and chaos is encouraged. People are desperate for justice, for order, for something to restore balance to this mess. And yet, in that desperation, many areContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: Patience in a Time of Depravity”
Sunday Sessions: The Love We Notice While It’s Here
Writing this post feels like déjà vu—like I’ve written it before. Maybe I have. But it hit me again this morning, and I’m sharing it anyway. We can never have too many reminders to notice what we’re grateful for, to hold it close before it’s gone. Every morning, my mother-in-law texts me. Just a simpleContinueContinue reading “Sunday Sessions: The Love We Notice While It’s Here”
