Learning the Ropes of a New Role
November 6, 2026Well, along with the Christmas festivities starting recently, I have also started a new job.After spending months sitting in the spiritual waiting room of limbo land, wondering if my permanent job description was “professional coke drinker and baby-sock folder,” God opened a brand-new door. I am officially back in the workforce… albeit part-time! I’d love to tell you that I stepped into this new role with the sleek, flawless confidence of a high-flying CEO. I’d love to tell you I walked through the door on day one, immediately understood the systems, and effortlessly commanded the room. But you know me,…

Finding God in the Fog

Finding Blessings Around Every Corner
Sometimes I catch myself waiting for the “lightning bolt” prayers to be answered. The ones that change the course of your life in a single day. We pray for the big health breakthroughs, the major job shifts, or the mountain-moving…
Holding Heartache & Joy in the Same Hand
There’s this big misconception out there that faith is a straight line from a “dark place” into the sunshine. Where once you’ve got God on your side, the messy feelings just poof away. But if you’ve lived through even one…
Buckle Up: The Sacred Roller Coaster of Life!
If life were a theme park ride, I’m pretty sure I’d be the one in the front row with my eyes squeezed shut, alternating between screaming in terror and laughing hysterically. It’s been a season of whiplash, a literal roller…
A Front-Row Seat to a Miracle: Welcome Theo!
We had a date marked on the calendar. We had a plan. But if my years walking with God have taught me anything, it’s that God’s timing is rarely our timing—and His ways are always infinitely higher. Our sweet grandson,…
