Just on the heels of She Speaks, I find myself feeling more blessed than ever. This weekend was full of unexpected blessings in the form of beautiful women who love God and each other. On my next post, I’ll take you down the path that led me to She Speaks…

OK girls, the countdown is on and I’m working on crunch time as I prepare to attend She Speaks in 10 days. (Did I just write 10 days?) Yes, I’m feeling a little frantic and frazzled here. Fortunately, my attempts to maintain my composure often mask my harried heart. Today’s…

Yesterday, our pastor (Eric Jaffe) preached an awesome message entitled, “A Call to Fall” and it challenged me big time!

“Your love has given me great joy and encouragement, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the saints.” Philemon 1:7(NIV) When I was a little girl, we took a trip to California. Our drive led us through the Nevada desert. I remember how sweltering hot it was during the…
