This Romans study became more than a weekly gathering — it turned into a spiritual excavation. Over eight weeks, we wrestled with truth, tore off masks, and let grace do what only grace can do. From the raw honesty of “no one is righteous” to the breathtaking freedom of “no condemnation,” we watched the gospel move from theory to transformation. What started as a simple Bible study became a community of people learning to live the Word — not just read it. Romans reminded us that the gospel isn’t an entry point; it’s the whole story. It reshapes how we see God, ourselves, and each other — teaching us that grace doesn’t just save us, it sustains us, molds us, and sends us back into the world a little more like Christ.

I was first introduced to this book in one of my courses pursuing my M.A. in... Continue Reading →
“When Conviction Caves: Faith, Mental Health, and the Struggle to Stay Committed”
We’ve all been there at one point in our life. Or maybe several points. We say “yes” with passion, declare intentions with fire in our spirit, and commit with full hearts—only to find ourselves drifting weeks, days, or even hours later. It was really what we wanted just a month or a week ago but... Continue Reading →
Leadership: The Potential in People
The post emphasizes the importance of valuing people, believing in their potential, and loving them unconditionally as essential components of effective leadership. It draws on John Maxwell's teachings, particularly from "High Road Leadership," illustrating that true leadership involves recognizing the worth in everyone and fostering growth through discipleship and unconditional love.
Dinks & Discipleship
The very first time I heard the word “dinking” I thought that I must be hearing it wrong, or they just did not pronounce the “R” and they meant to say “drinking.” Sure enough, dinking is a thing if you know anything about pickleball. If you have not had the chance to grab your pickleball... Continue Reading →
