I declare that no weapon formed against their fatherhood will prosper. I bind every generational curse and release generational blessings. I speak life over every dry place and call forth a new fire in their hearts to lead, protect, nurture, and love as You do.

You are deeply loved—just as you are. A good father reassures his daughter that his love is not based on her performance or perfection. God says:“I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.” — Jeremiah 31:3

Abba doesn’t love us for what we do. He loves us for who we are

I want to share something personal—something that has shaped not only the way I love but also the way I see God.

As believers, we have the capacity to be the most joyous people on the planet. But are we? Am I? Sadly, the enemy knows the immense power of joy to carry us through the most challenging circumstances and will do everything he can to shut it down.

For a long time, I didn’t think I had a “real” problem. I wasn’t drinking every day—and that actually kept me stuck longer. I told myself I was fine because I could go days without it. But most weekends, I drank heavily. One drink was never enough. I couldn’t understand how people could casually drink and call it fun. For me, drinking was an escape—something that helped me cope, feel in control, and silence what I didn’t want to feel. But deep down, I knew it was quietly cont

My dad, ever steady, told me more than once that he wasn’t afraid. He had lived a good life. He was loved, and he knew exactly where he was going. That quiet confidence gave me peace. We had the gift of open conversations in those last months—saying everything that needed to be said. That brought a sense of closure, though the ache of losing his physical presence is deeper than I imagined

Wispy gray hair waved about as every inch of her wrinkled face smiled into the wind. When she lifted her face toward the sun, she closed her eyes as if in worship. In her silence, I could almost hear her heart praising God for another day to experience the beauty of His creation. God, I whispered, I want to be like her when I’m her age. Through the roar of the ocean, it was as though His gentle whisper answered my heart: Why wait? Those two words shook me from my complacency!

God calls our kids to be set apart, not to conform. As Paul instructs, “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind” (Romans 12:2, NIV). So how do we parent in a way that prepares them to stand strong in a world that’s constantly trying to shape them?

I never expected my marriage to turn out this way. I never thought I’d have to grieve something that was still alive, still standing—at least on the outside. But when addiction and betrayal became part of my story, I realized that grief wasn’t just for things that had physically died. It was for the dreams, the trust, and the love that had been broken.

The power of God Himself lives within us! We have access to the Holy Spirit living with us and in us every day, but few of us know Him or understand what He’s capable of in our lives. Let’s do a little Bible study to look more closely at the Holy Spirit and His characteristics at work within us.

You can be more than you’ve always been. Even if you have been emotionally or spiritually damaged, God has the power to recreate and transform you into the holy, blameless person He has always intended for you to be. If the Holy Spirit is within you, you have the capacity to love, forgive, show mercy, endure suffering, and proclaim God’s good news with wisdom and courage. It will take time, in fact, a lifetime. But God has great plans for you.

I was at a crossroads.  Which perspective would I choose?  The one where I’d lose my house or the one where God would fulfill His promise.  Did I believe God or not?

When considering the many characters in the Bible, with whom do you most connect? While the number of people written about in Scripture varies depending on which version you read, the King James Bible boasts 1,940 names. Not every person in the Bible was faithful and obedient, giving us a wide variety of stories with which we can relate.

Lois and Eunice never stood on stage and didn't pen letters that ended up in Scripture. Yet, their legacy was written on the heart of a boy who would help shape the early church.

She stayed through the mocking. She stayed through the nails. She stayed through the silence between His last breath and the earthquake that followed. She was there when most were gone.

He was a beautiful, healthy, and strong child. But in Pharaoh's Egypt, his beauty marked him for execution. To love her son meant to risk everything.

There was nothing easy about Hannah's story. She was a woman who longed to be a mother but lived in the shadow of barrenness. In a culture where children were considered a sign of God's blessing, Hannah's empty arms were not just a source of personal grief—they marked her with public shame.

When God gives you a vision, He’s already lined up people on the other side to help you carry it out.
