The Plan???

The Plan???

Today's sermon- Knowing God has a plan that includes you is different than you having a plan which hopefully includes Him. Acts 19:11-16 God was working through Paul. Doing such extraordinary things through him. Some people thought- I can do that too. So these men...

In the Boat

In the Boat

Storms of life will happen. It's a guarantee. We live in a broken and fallen world. Full of sin, sickness, and struggles. God knew we couldn't escape our brokenness without Him. That's why He sent us Jesus. It was the plan from the very beginning. Jesus lived a...

The Thief? John 10:10

The Thief? John 10:10

I keep seeing this verse on my FB feed being used out of context, and it’s driving me nuts! I don’t really want to just “add to the noise.” And this isn’t really a personal message that may speak to people…  So, I kept putting it off… Then the Lord puts on my...

Super Faith- Origin Story

Super Faith- Origin Story

There’s something about a superhero story that grips straight at my heart. Maybe it’s the sad origin story. Maybe it’s that every day person stepping up and doing what’s right even when it’s not easy. Maybe it’s that complex relationship between the hero and villain....

Pruning

My life verse is John 15. It’s literally tattooed on my arm. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing (5).” Apart from Him I can do nothing. I need that constant reminder....

Walking on Water

Walking on Water

So many times we hear the story of Peter walking on water and the focus is Peter taking his eyes off Jesus, focusing on the storm, and sinking. Good message. Keep your eyes on Jesus not your circumstances. But Peter has a lot more to show us here. What if we looked at...

The Waves

The Waves

We took an improv trip to the Gulf of Mexico this weekend. My husband wanted to purchase a truck down there, so we seized the opportunity to make some beach memories! Well, I learned something about myself on this very short trip--- I am much more of a river and lake...

Separated by Sin

Separated by Sin

Before we left for a camping trip, my boys wronged their dad. We left in two separate cars (the joys of having six kids and needing to pull a camper). The boys were with me, and the girls were with dad. At our first stop, the boys didn’t really talk to their dad at...

The Spirit is Willing

The Spirit is Willing

Recently I got myself into a little bit of drama… I mean I had good intentions, but the execution was just horrible. I was in the wrong and I knew it. The guilt ate me alive. I wanted to just shrink up and hide for a month. Then this urge inside me to fight, defend,...
