Why Don’t I️ Hear God Speaking?

Once we pass the first hurdle that God still speaks today, we have a second hurdle looming. I️ believe God can speak…I️ just don’t hear Him speaking to me. Sound familiar? We hear other people talk about how God is speaking to them, and often wonder why we do not have the same experience. We…

Does God Pursue Intimacy with Us?

I’m sitting here having a conversation with my 7-year-old today (who happens to be home for the day after vomiting on the school bus. Ugh.).

The Battle of Insecurity: How to Wage War and Win

It’s that common feeling of not being good enough…not keeping up…not measuring up that can sometimes sneak into our lives unexpectedly. A battle of insecurity that can leave you to feel trapped and inadequate. A numbing sensation that makes you experience raw, vulnerability inside. You find yourself comparing to others and listening to the lie,…

Be Present

I wonder what would happen if we put our phones away. Stop obsessing with who’s who and Hollywood. Put aside politics and the daily news. And rather…start looking across the table. Listening to what is being said.

I think many of us wonder why God isn’t doing anything in our lives…and maybe, just maybe…it’s because we are saying “No” to the things God is asking us to do.
