Wave-tossed and War-torn
If I’m being honest, it’s been a tough couple weeks. I’ve missed a few posts, and here’s why.
Love Covers All Wrongs
We love drama. We love conflict. But decency goes a long way. A pattern of love covers all wrongs.
I Dare You to Pray This Way
I’ve seen my thoughts. They’re icky. I absolutely do not want the Lord to know them. But actually, He already does.
