One morning, at the crack of dawn, I woke up. In a moment of clarity, the reality of my situation hit me like a Mack truck. Emotions flooded me in the most overwhelming way. I was finally awake to the nightmare that had become my life. Desperation overtook me, and I instantly had a plan…

Fake Christians are probably the people I despise the most. They make it near-impossible to bring people to Christ, because so many people have come across a fake Christian, and it’s left a nasty taste in their mouth. I can’t say that I blame them. Christians are supposed to be Christ-like. We have all seen…

Sleeping is something that I am horrible at. This has been true for as long as I can remember. As a child, I was terrified of the dark, had horrible night terrors, and was just anxious about sleeping in general. Beside my bed was a picture of a puppy with a Bible verse, ‘Be Still…

While there are many more amazing women in the Bible, I’m ending this series with Mary Magdalene. When Jesus arose from the dead, He didn’t seek out one of His apostles. He didn’t wait for the next man to come along and show Himself to. It was a woman named Mary Magdalene. Now Mary is…

For weeks, I’ve had one Biblical woman on my mind to write about, one that there isn’t much written about. She’s in a tiny snippet, and I feel unqualified to write about her. However, as I’ve continued to look into, and try to write about other women, God continued to keep her front and center…

Deborah was a prophetess, we hear about her in Judges 4. She was also the leader of Israel at that time. She led her people to war, and they were victorious! Can you imagine back then, a mere woman is not only leading God’s people, but she leads them in war as well. What a…

Esther is my favorite book. In fact, my favorite movie is One Night With The King, a movie about Esther. I highly recommend it. It’s a slow but beautifully done movie, that I don’t think anyone in my life has actually watched. Esther was a young Jewish woman who was being raised by her cousin…

For quite some time now, I’ve heard from many different ‘Christians’ that females are supposed to be subservient, that women aren’t supposed to have leadership roles. This is objectively false. The Bible is filled with stories of women who were used by God for greatness. From Esther taking a stand for her people to Deborah…

1 Corinthians 13:13 says ‘And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love’. You see, love is life. Love is everything. When you love someone, they become more important to you than yourself. You find yourself doing things you hate, because you love the person you are doing…

When I think about love never failing, I think of God’s love. As humans, we are imperfect, and because of that we fail, even unintentionally. God is perfect, and His love is an unfailing love. I spent decades feeling like God had failed me. In the midst of agony, I felt alone, and couldn’t feel…
