2025/10/15

This week, I’m diving into Romans 5:1–11 (ESV), a passage that’s full of hope, peace, and reminders of how deeply God loves us. During my Bible study, a few words really stood out to me: hope and reconciled. Because of our faith, we have peace with God through Jesus, our relationship with Him is restored, and we’re no longer His enemies. My biggest takeaway? Because of Jesus’ love and sacrifice, I’m made right with God, I have peace and hope even in hard times, and I can live with joy knowin...

This weekend in South Texas, I was struck with a sudden wave of gratitude. For the land. For the sun. For the fresh air and good food. For friends who are more like family. For the kind of community where makeup doesn’t matter, kids are loved like your own, and conversations fill your soul. In this episode, I share a story from our time dove hunting at a friend’s ranch and how it reminded me that gratitude can shift everything, even in the middle of chaos. 🫧HERBAL FACE FOOD: The most

This week’s episode is short, sweet, and straight from my heart. I wasn’t feeling inspired to record today, and maybe that’s exactly why this message matters. In this episode, I share a moment from the other day when someone asked me, “What do you do now that you’re not teaching?” and I froze. I explain how that question left me feeling less than, and how it ties into the bigger reminder we all need: 💛 You have permission to have off days. 💛 You don’t need to be “on” all the time. 💛 Your

Together, we’ll explore what we can do: turning off the 24-hour news cycle, stepping away from social media for a bit, engaging in conversations with people we disagree with, and remembering that behind every headline, e...

This week, I’m sharing a powerful experience from visiting our daughter at Tarleton State University and attending Timber Ridge Church with her and her friends. Watching young adults worship Jesus so boldly reminded me of my own college years and how different my story was. The message that morning centered on how Jesus multiplies our gifts, and Romans 12:7-8 deeply connected to my heart and what I’m studying in Bible study right now.
