Have you ever fallen for a lie? Yea, me too. Ever wonder why we so easily buy into these lies? These caustic words others say to us, or worse, the ones we say to ourselves? These words that immobilize, making us feel insignificant or confused. Unfortunately, this fatal falling for lies was modeled for us […]
The phone slices right through the day’s normal. “She’s in her final hours,” the caller says. In a dash, I grab purse and coat and head out for the ninety-minute trip. Ninety minutes that hang like shadows, reminding me of the times I never made that trip. “We’ll be there soon, I promise,” I’d told […]
Column Post by Laura Hyers I got three hours of sleep last night. I don’t say this in the proud way I once did—because I procrastinated and pulled an all-nighter and got some college project done in the nick of time. I say this after a full day of taking care of little ones who […]
Column Post by Lisa Easterling “In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.

I watched them, the yard crew working outside my window. Some donned in straw hats that shaded their weather-worn, dark-skinned faces, some with orange safety ear-muffs strapped across their closely-cropped hair. In spite of the near 100-degree sun beating down on them, all were covered head to toe in protective clothing. These, my heroes […]
Dear Silent One, I see you, tucked in the corner battling for obscurity. Defending yourself from life’s pain. Afraid to trust. Afraid to feel. But I also recognize that craving in the deep recesses of your heart, the place you won’t let others see. My heart is pierced with your longing to be heard, valued, […]
by Jo Ann Fore My husband shared a verse with me the other day, said it was “for me.” Knowing the spiritual depth of my husband-covering, I take that serious. I pull it in tight. Inhale the fresh perfume. It intoxicates. Encourages. Delivers. Inspires. As I dig in, meditate on the Word, I am renewed. “I […]
by Jo Ann Fore There’s a lot of pain in this world. I’ve walked through my share. And I’ll admit, I don’t have the answers; I sure don’t have life figured out. But from personal experience, I have discovered a critical truth. If we blame God, if we get stuck in the “why” of it […]
