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…

Imagine being a young virgin woman, engaged to a young man, and you become pregnant. Your story only gets crazier, because it involves an angel coming down to tell you that you will become pregnant with the Son of God. It’s a supernatural conception. Welcome to Mary’s story. Who was Mary, that God chose her…

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.

Hope used to be a foreign feeling to me. Something I felt was a stupid emotion for suckers. When I was in my several years long abusive relationship, I watched as my family had hope I’d wake up. I watched the heartache, the tears, the anger, and the devastation my family felt as they watched…

This is a difficult one. Trust is intimidating. It’s frightening. For me, trusting someone not to berate me, rape me, beat me, isolate me, own me, seemed not only impossible, but stupid. I had been beaten down by enough people in my life that I had closed myself off from even thinking about trusting anyone…

What comes to mind when you think about, ‘love always protects’? You probably think about protecting your children, spouse, pets, family, and friends. Those are all important to protect, but what about ourselves? For decades I thought I was great at protecting myself, simply because I was still alive. My life showed a different story.…
