Authentic
Definition: representing one’s true nature or beliefs; true to oneself or to the person identified: “Keeping it real” is a turn of phrase that means essentially being authentic. I don’t know how many people I’ve seen act differently in different groups because you can tell they are trying to be something they aren’t! Hey, I…

Be Original
What on earth does it mean to be an original? We just copy a little bit of what everyone else is doing and we get by. With social media and all of the trending tags, we all seem to consume the same information based on our likes and followings so we can replicate others. I…

He is in the details
Naturally, we get so busy in our daily lives that the mundane details of how we get from point A to point B get swept under the rug. We focus on the bigger picture of our day, week, year as the important thing. The details matter though. Sometimes we can get hung up on the…

Your Heart
Did you know that God is after your heart above all else? Why your heart and not your mind or your marital status or your family? Why is God after your heart? The Bible says that out of the heart, the mouth speaks. (Matt. 12:34) Jesus also said that everything that goes into us doesn’t…

Rest vs. Hard Work

Good vs. Great
How do you know the difference between something good and something great? Good things will keep us from God’s ultimate plan for our lives. Gods purposes in our lives should prevail!

Grace for Growth
Growth by definition is a process. Why do our brains then think as soon as a journey begins that we should have it all figured out? At least we can get to a point to just remind ourselves, “take it easy this is a process.” Have you ever seen someone come in to church wearing…

Dreams
dream – noun A dream or vision is almost always something with expectation attached to it: it puts our hopes somewhere for the future. Dreams are a way that God speaks to us! We sleep 1/3 of our day. 8 hours (is the average sleep time frame) is a long time and while we are…

The Valley
It’s just a season. Baby, don’t camp out in the valley, it’s just a season. I have life lessons all over this one. When you’re down and out or at your last few dollars or have to move back in with you parents or your car is broken down and you don’t know when or…
