This morning, I saw a tweet about Saddleback’s online campus. For those who are unaware, Saddleback church was created by Rick Warren using his amazing church model, which is wrote about in his book Purpose Driven Church which now is an official ministry of Saddleback Church and actually has its own website with awesome content. I clicked the link and listened to Rick’s Sermon, which …

A while back, I asked it anyone would like to read my papers for my Biblical Background and Interpretation / Principles of Theology {Holy Trinity – December 2007} and Theological Writing and Research {Creationism vs. Evolutionism – October 2006} … I promised to post them, but never did. It’s been a few months, but better late than never – right? haha

Lately, I’ve been involving myself in so much that I let ‘busy’ get the best of me. This morning, I’m reflecting and enjoying all of the things that make being a mother worth all of the difficulty that accompanies the title. Parenting is not always easy… if it is, you’re not doing it correctly. The catch 22 there is that there IS no ‘right’ way …

Caught you off guard with that title, huh? Wonderful… at least it got you here. LOL
In my world, when I hear someone say, “I’m very religious,” I typically am rolling my eyes {on the inside} and wondering what judgmental string of babble is going to come flying through their lips next… Religion has a well-earned negative connotation. Religious people are some of the most hypocritical …

I admit things have been a bit cuh-razy around here lately. I’ve had people ask me how I can be comfortable sharing so much or why I don’t mind putting all the hard times out there with the peaceful. I’ve not been criticized – I’m not saying that at all. :) Those of you who have inquired, I do definitely understand the perplexity and the …

I haven’t cried in a while… but this did it. I can’t really put it into words… you’ll just have to watch the video. This is amazing… And such a powerful symbolism for how God is with us – how He is able when we are unable… capable when life incapacitates us. Oh, thank You, JESUS!
Dick and Rick Hoyt are a father-and-son team from Massachusetts …

I’ve been working on this post for like a week… It’s hard to really solidify exactly what I want to say. It’s hard to find the verbiage to properly describe the things that are going on in my spirit… the stirring that I’m feeling. There are so many things that come together so flawlessly in my heart, but for once in my life, it’s nearly …

Sunday at church, we had a local college football team visit our church as we do every year when school starts. The church was packed, which touches my heart every time – these young guys, many of them freshman, could be a number of places… but they decided that day to be in the Lord’s house. For whatever reason, I am always thankful when young …

Today, church was GREAT… I am not even going to try to get the whole lesson in this post because I can’t touch the perfection behind the way God presented this message through our Pastor, but I will hit on the key points and do my best to do this sermon justice!!
KEY SCRIPTURE: “You did not choose me, but I chose you…” John 15:16 {hover …

For those who missed the Prayer Blanket I posted on StepInFaith’s “Reflections” blog, check it out… it was definitely heart-felt and totally what is going on with me right now. I’ve let my own missions and ambitions sort of trifle what God is working on through me. I’ve started using the word “I” more than the word “He” in reference to my paths and plans.
Dangerous.
We’re …

Today, my Pastor preached the second sermon of a 3-part series called “I’m the One!” The basic message is that God called you to be SOMETHING… He called each and every one of us to be SOMEONE. Many of us feel like failures or are even unhappy or unfulfilled in our success because we’re not being obedient to our calling – we are not doing …
