How to Make Friends as a Christian Woman
Learning How to Make Friends as a Christian Woman starts learning how to BE a friend. You might think you know how to be a friend. But I had to give this some thought several years ago and really be willing to look more deeply in the mirror. I am loyal and kind, but I struggle with some things that have made developing lasting friendships more challenging for me than for some people. Learning how to make friends comes easy to some. But I have always been that person who felt like she didn’t fit in. I am the person who walks away from a conversation and replays every awkward…

Learn How to Love Your Husband: the Key is Secret Service
Learning how to love your husband can be as simple as secret service. It was the key to unlocking my bitter, angry heart and learning to love my husband again, which, in turn, saved our marriage. What I really needed to learn was how to love your husband according to the Bible! We still really loved each other, but something was very broken. My husband was angry all the time. I was bitter. We could barely talk about anything without bickering, so we didn’t. I did my thing. He did his. We slept in the same bed, but we weren’t any kind of team. (keep reading for how dirty underwear…

Christian Encouragement for New Moms
I’d love to share some encouragement for new moms that I’ve learned along the way because we all feel a little alone as moms sometimes. Motherhood can be overwhelming and isolating. But we don’t have to feel like we’re the only ones in our situation. We’re not all in the same boat, but we’re all in the same storm. I’ve heard that said many times about the current virus situation, but it’s so true about parenting. And I want you to know you’re not alone. My biggest encouragement for new moms is that no one is totally prepared for parenting. You’re not doing it wrong (at least not any more…

Should I Read the Bible? What Christians Should Know
Wondering Should I read the Bible? Maybe you’ve never picked one up. Maybe you’ve only skimmed it and never really read it with purpose. Either way, the answer to Should I read the Bible is yes. If you’re a Christian or wondering about Christianity, nothing will change your faith and life more than reading the Bible. Reading the Bible daily is the most important habit any believer can have. It’s so important to read God’s word, deeply and thoroughly, that I say all Christians should be saturated in the Bible. Becoming deeply saturated in the word changed my relationship with God forever. I spent too many years full of misunderstanding and carrying legalistic…
