Living Your Purpose

Spiritual Dryness

There have been seasons in my life where my relationship with God has felt full, steady, and deeply alive. His Word felt rich, prayer felt natural, and His presence seemed close and constant. I remember what it felt like to sit with Him without distraction, where time seemed to slow and my heart felt anchored…

The Beauty of Writing Together

Recently, I was given an exciting opportunity that I did not expect. I have been invited to collaborate with several different authors to write a book together. When I first heard about the project, I felt both honored and surprised. Writing has always been something deeply personal for me, often something I do quietly on…

One Hundred Hands, One Greater Story

At the beginning of this month, I had the extraordinary opportunity to attend the Christian Product Expo. From the moment I walked into the convention center, I sensed it was more than a professional milestone. It felt sacred. The hum of conversation, the thoughtfully arranged booths, and the steady stream of publishers, retailers, and authors…

Shifting Directions

At the beginning of this year, I was determined to publish a new book—a devotional written for every single day of the year. Three hundred and sixty-five reflections, each one designed to gently draw readers closer to God in steady, practical ways. I envisioned something consistent and accessible. Not deeply personal. Not layered with my…

The Quiet Life

This past weekend, I sat quietly, earbuds in, listening to Francis Chan speak about the “Quiet Life.” His words fell into my heart like gentle rain on parched ground. The more I listened, the more I realized he was describing the life I long for – a life that is steady, unhurried, simple, and anchored…

A Book Born From Faith

Tomorrow is the release of my brand new book. I have been preparing for this moment for as long as I can remember. It was in the Spring of 2023 when I first felt the stirrings of a new project within my heart. The idea for the book came to me not as a sudden…

An Audit of My Life

The other day at church, our pastor’s message was based on “The Parable of the Talents”. At the end of the service, he asked all of us one very profound question… “What would it look like if God audited your life?” I remember several years ago I had thought what a performance review of my…

Distracted Hearts

Life can become extremely busy at times causing us to unintentionally distance ourselves from God, His word and His purpose for our life. From the moment Joe and I closed on our house, all I could think about was our big move. We had so much to do in a month’s time and I had…
