  • Choking Under Pressure

    Growing up, I loved playing baseball. I was actually kinda good at the game, but there was one particular situation that I almost always failed in… Executing under pressure. I still remember the 2 outs, down by 1 scenario that every baseball player dreams of. What’d I do? I struck out for the first time…

    I asked my folks on twitter earlier to share their best blog post of the week. What I got was a stream of great stuff from great people that I’ve never read before. Thought I’d pass some of them along here…. @katieorr22 :: 2 Fun Ways to Make Easter All About Jesus @iamanoffering :: 3 Ways Small…

  • I’m Learning to Slow Down

    I’m trying to learn to slow down. I’m learning that I often do a lot of things, but few things well. Instead, I run around, thing to thing, task to task. The result is, I accomplish a lot of “tasks” but have very little impact. So, I’m learning to slow down. What are you learning?

  • Life Is Like A Game of Bop It

    Do you remember the hand held game “Bop It”? I loved playing Bop It as a kid. In fact, I think it’s still around (yeah, its that good!). In Bop It, the goal is to repeat a set of commands given in the game. – pull it, twist it, bop it. As the little thing…

    Sometimes, it’s not about spending a lot of money or doing anything that seems exciting. Sometimes, it’s just about spending time together. So, a trip to Dollar Tree for some seeds, a planter, and some soil made last Saturday a little more special. It’s the little things. What’s your favorite cheap date?

  • Dear Church. A Letter From the Searching

    Dear Church. A Letter From the Searching

    Dear Church, I write to you because I’m searching. I’m searching for something that I’m not sure can be found. I’m not sure what it looks like, what it feels like, or where to find it. I know it’s missing, and I need your help. I know there has to be more. There has to…

  • When God Gets Lost

    by

    in ,

    I know this probably isn’t the most perfectly “spiritual” question to ask, but does God ever seem lost to you? When you need Him most, does that ever become the time that He seems the furthest away? For me, sometimes it seems as if I think I’m doing everything right. (as if I could earn…

  • Sleeping In

    I love sleeping! It probably comes as no shock to those of you that read this post. But I love being able to sleep late and wake up feeling refreshed and re-energized. Sometimes, that just isn’t possible. Sometimes, responsibilities take over and keep me from staying in the bed as late as I’d like. Sometimes,…

  • Testify!

    by

    in ,

    Remember when churches used to have testimony times? Times for the congregation to give testimony to what God has been doing in their lives. The truth is, God is good. He’s been good to us. There’s certainly something that we can all testify to that God’s done in our life recently. For me, He’s given…

  • My Confession… & Yours

    in ,

    We all have at least one. We rarely talk about them. We spend the majority of our time trying to hide them from others that have the same one. Insecurities. What I’m insecure about may not be what you’re insecure about. What I’m insecure about in myself may never be noticed by you. But we…
