What moves you? I’m not talking about the things that stir your affections. Like a hobby or pastime, or a piece of music. What shifts you, alters your spirit, changes your direction, robs your focus, impacts your choices and decisions…what moves you? For me, it’s simple. Unmet expectations. When my heart is set on something …
I’m asking you to pay close attention to this message because it’s critically important. More than ever before, I passionately believe God has called you to influence the discipleship of the generations. You were made for this, sisters and brothers.

My Grandma Josie’s table was always set with a lace tablecloth. Most of the time my Grandpa Gene cooked the meal, but my grandma took care of the table. There was always a plate with bread and a ceramic butter dish. And lots of laughter and repetition, because Grandpa had trouble hearing. All at Grandma …
This Holy Week, we are journeying together through the encounters of Jesus. Today we get to look at how Jesus interacts with the religious leaders of his day, particularly their questions about his authority. I love the questions my kids ask me. I have spent the last year driving my older girls to a homeschool …
John the Baptist. You know all about him. Desert dweller. Different diet. In fact, we’ve seen the Daniel Diet fad and the Paleo Diet grow in popularity, but I’ve never heard anyone do a series of videos on the John the Baptist Diet Plan of locusts and honey. John the Baptist’s outfits were unrefined. He didn’t …
