For a really great article on how Christian women should view their bodies, check this out. My own thoughts are that Satan tries to make our appearance an idol, then uses that to enslave us in insecurity and fear so that we cannot be fit to serve God. It starts like, "I just want to feel...

I am praising God for Oaklahoma's ban on abortion!!

When I tried to lose weight by focusing on my appearance, I was too self-focused and discouraged to power through making consistently healthy choices. But what if weight loss was about honoring God with our eating and exercise? I love this video because it does a great job of explaining this.

Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised. The world teaches young women to seek the perfect body, flaunt what you have, and fight for a youthful look. When I was motivated to change my appearance to look good in the eyes of the world, I...

When I read Scriptures about how we should be honoring and preferring one another, I think, wow! We should be tripping over ourselves to speak kindly and show love to one another! It should be as if Jesus was standing right there reading our posts as we write them. After all, the Holy Spirit...

There is so much that I found but I will try to keep this brief. A popular Christian song lyric goes "perfection is my enemy". The Bible is not against perfection. God desires that we are perfect. I looked up the word perfect in Scripture and found is over 120 times in the KJV translation...

Share what you've learned about having your identity rooted in Christ. For me, I know I have room to improve. My emotions often dictate how I feel about my identity. But more and more, I feel grounded in the love of God and seeking to please Him first.

How much loving treatment do we owe to believers and nonbelievers, friends and people who hurt us? Does loving people mean we don't hold them accountable for their hurtful behaviours? Are there times when were called to love and times when we are called to let go and put distance?

We have needs from our bodies that often take our minds off of God. We need food, clothing, and shelter. But Jesus told us not to run after these things. Seek first the Kingdom of God. But can chores, work, and busy-making become part of our pursuit of God? Is there a way to stay in communion...

Chelsea Kryst won Miss USA in 2019. Here is a brief article about her death. I find this very troubling. Her mother said she had high functioning depression that she hid from everyone. I find it troubling that she felt like she had to hide her mental struggles and had no one to talk to. Not...

God is good and gives good things to those who trust Him. I was broken, prodigal, and a slave to sin. I had every reason to fail and be disqualified. But God brought me out of all the drama into a place of security and peace in His presence. No arguments in my marriage, no bills unpaid, no...

I just wanted to share something Im thinking about when it comes to forums and online communities. I think it's wonderful that Christians have places to gather online but I feel like I am starting to see a golden opportunity by stepping out of my comfort zone to secular sites. One website in...

There is a popular movement among social media influencers, even Christian ones, promoting Self love. Self love is talked about as the solution and antidote to self-hatred, body image insecurities, and low confidence. However, I noticed that often, in the next breath, these influencers...

What has God taught you or worked with you on this year that you are taking into next year? For me, This year Ive learned that seeking God doesn't always involve a huge mountain-top experience since He often speaks in a still small voice. I've learned that God is good and that there is such a...

Think about it. We make a tradition out of crosses and crucifixes. We do it to show honor. But does Jesus want to constantly be reminded of the most traumatic time of his life? I mean, a cross was a Roman execution device. Maybe Jesus sees it and thinks, "Ouch." Sometimes I think we think...

God promises we will find Him when we seek Him with our whole heart. Sometimes I just get hungry for God's presence to the point where I want a special encounter with Him like when Moses said "Show me your glory". Can anyone relate to this? Don't get me wrong, His presence is with me all...

Here is a link to this brief article called, "Three Free Sins" Here is it's conclusion. "So not only does the Christian get three free sins…Christians get unlimited free sins! (Free to us because they are all forgiven…but not free to God.) And I don’t know a better way to get people thinking...
