“Trust the process. God hasn’t brought you this far to suck the wind out of your sails.” These were the words I tapped out in a quick reply text to a friend a few weeks ago as she begged me for prayers over a situation that she was guaranteed wouldn’t be a problem.

Well, let’s just look at that verse. “No temptation has overtaken you except such as… Continue reading Simply Not True

Transitions
"Life is one big transition." Willie Stargell The last few weeks the idea of transition has been heavy of my heart. I have thought about friends and loved ones transitioning from this earthly life to their eternal life as well as those who are left to find their new norm without this precious loved one… Continue reading Transitions
Something More
"Stop hoping and start hoping!" - Dr. John Avant My pastor shared this point two weeks ago in his message about God's song for our country.
