Scripture Sunday: How Can We Pray for You?

This Sunday, we'd like to encourage you to share your prayer requests, that we might be able to keep you in our prayers. Did you know that the Bible instructs us to pray for each other?  To intercede on behalf of those we love as well as those we may not even like?  1 Timothy 2:1 says, "I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them." Not only are we told to speak on behalf of our brothers and sisters in Christ, but for all people.…

Well regardless of my love (or lack thereof) of snow, I…

When You Feel Like a Nobody: Your Voice Matters

Yesterday I felt like a nobody. I can't pinpoint what it was exactly. Maybe it was people criticizing the company I interviewed with last week after having looked down on me so long for not having a "real" job. Maybe it was all the church leaders being recognized now that I'm not (for the first time in a long time) one of those leaders. Sometimes it's difficult to see everyone else getting recognition for doing the same things you never got recognition for.  Sometimes everybody else's success just makes you feel like a nobody.  Like being "just" a mom isn't important.  Like…
