  • *Record Scratch* *Freeze Frame* (Time For An Update)

    Yep, that’s me. You’re probably wondering how I got here. It’s been a while since I’ve put anything on here. So long that I had to go through the site and make sure I updated things before this post went live. It was somewhat embarrassing how old the picture of my family on my about…

  • Sermon on the Mount

    The Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) is probably the most famous teaching of Jesus. Recently it is something that has been coming up over and over again in things I am studying or listening to. It started with a book by Skye Jethani called What if Jesus Was Serious. Then the VOX Podcast started…

  • Controlling the Tongue

    This week I was reading a passage in James 3. I’ve read it many times before, but as I read it this time it struck me of how timely it was. It was something I needed to read. It is something I need to read again and meditate on. So in this post, I’m going…

  • Us vs. Them

    It seems like everything today has to be divided and force you to pick a side. Republican or democrat. American or unpatriotic. Conservation or liberal. Black lives matter or blue lives matter. Mask or no mask. Shutdown or no shutdown. LGBTQ+ or transphobic. Lines in the sand are drawn, sides are picked, and the battle…

  • The Chosen Nation

    I’ve been wrestling with a thought for a while. I have wanted to write about it for a long time now but debated how it would be received. I think it’s finally got to the point where I no longer care because it needs to be said (or re-said because I’m sure I’m not the…

  • Should I Fight the Fight

    One thing that seems to always live up to the hype is mom groups on Facebook. Since I’m married, I get some inside access to a few mom groups thanks to Angela. There always seems to be drama on them. Moms can be ruthless. Social media in general seems to be that way lately. You…

Small Things – Love and Cookies

Have you ever felt foolish praying about something?  Sometimes there are things I feel are so small that I shouldn't pray about them because it would be a waste of God's time to hear it. God tells us to bring everything to Him in prayer.  It doesn't matter how small or insignificant it may seem to us, God wants us to bring it all to Him.  When we do, it allows Him to move in ways we would have never imagined.

Invite me to speak at your event

In this fast-paced, easily distracted generation, people are looking for something to grab their attention. This is exactly what you will get when you invite me to speak at your service or event! My passion to see this generation changed will bring them to an encounter with God. I believe that once they encounter God, their lives will never be the same.

Covering all your real estate needs

I love helping people get to where they want to be! Prior to getting my real estate license, I built a career in the non-profit sector serving my community. I am in tune with what people need and help them to come up with a solution. I use these same skills to help people buy and sell homes. Rather than just a transaction, I know that I am helping people realize and achieve their goals.
