My Confession
If conviction follows intention, then confession must follow both. This is my confession. Before I chicken out; I am taking the rest of the year off from speaking and writing my fourth book. The past few years I have been furiously working, writing, researching, and speaking towards 20-somethings. This girl needs a break. I finished the work, the race, and I sped my little heart out. My third book is done, minus edits. My second book is launched. Now it’s time to rest and wait on God to show me His glory. Exodus 33:3, NIV84 says, “Go up to the land flowing with milk and honey. But I will not…

Happy Endings Do Exist!
Happy Endings Do Exist! I have been searching for the words to write this blog for over a week now. The fact is, I have another book coming out. Today in fact. I am so beyond excited, but I am also scared. Will anyone read it? Will anyone be blessed? Will I get to hear the stories of personal transformation? I remember standing up on stage for my first book release party. I said something like, this is as good as it gets because I’m probably never getting married so I better enjoy the spotlight now! WRONG. I was so fed up when I wrote Not Another Dating Book. I…

God's Calling
“God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks to us in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: It is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world”. C.S. Lewis I just love that quote. It reminds me in a very powerful way that God’s call on our lives is real. It’s tangible. Something we can taste, touch, feel, and see. And it’s not something so far out of our grasp that we’ll fail. Failure. Every time I tried to manage my schedule the past couple weeks–I’ve failed. I just wasn’t doing a good enough job. When my panic attacks came back, I felt like a big fat one–failure that is.…

The Power of Forgiveness
“If another believer sins against you, go privately and point out the offense. If the other person listens and confesses it, you have won that person back” (Matthew 18:15, NLT). The power of forgiveness. The Bible is pretty clear on forgiving others. With Matthew 18:15-18 as our guidebook, we are shown how to go directly to the person and show them if they have wronged you. I love how proactive the Bible is on forgiveness. Maybe it’s because the root of bitterness grows so easily. I tell you–after Marc and I moved into our new house we quickly realized how challenging our front lawn would prove to be. Those devil…
