If your world is filled with darkness, it's time to be the light.
Hate. Tragedy. Loss. I am grief stricken, and honestly I don’t believe I have a unique perspective to offer. I do, though, have reflecting to do. This weekend, the city of Pittsburgh underwent attack when an armed man entered Tree of Life Synagogue in the midst of a service, and opened fire. He killed 11 …
I have been told it seems like I have my life totally together. I’m here to clear that up. I see what you see: I’m 26, newly married, with two sweet dogs and a beautiful little home. I have a great job and space to practice my hobbies. What could be better? Here’s what you …
When it comes to faith, there are far more uncertainties than strongholds, but there is something I know to be true.
