The Long Way Home
It has been a hell of a ride. A ride that could have easily broken me, but then there’s God. I find it truly amazing how He can take some of our hardest battles and, not long after, bring us peace. And that’s what I feel right now. Peace. What…

Notes from Church 02/26
I thought Pastor Ashley did an amazing job teaching on Revelation and what it actually means. Concepts like the tribulation and the rapture make much more sense to me now than they did before. When I used to think about Revelation, I always had a fearful perspective of it, and…

Peter
I started reading from the book of Acts a few days ago and thought I should learn more about Peter since the book of Acts talks a lot about his ministry. Like I’ve said in previous blogs, I started writing because it’s how I learn best. My hope is that…

Disciples vs. Apostles
A disciple is a broad term for anyone who follows Jesus. More specifically, a disciple is a learner—someone who dedicates their life to Jesus and strives to live in a way that reflects how He walked here on earth. The purpose of a disciple of Jesus is to be transformed…

The Book of Ruth
I finished reading Ruth yesterday and realized there’s so much to learn from her—especially in difficult seasons. Ruth was a woman who lost her husband, Mahlon, one of the two sons of Naomi, her mother-in-law. Both of Naomi’s sons died, and Naomi urged her widowed daughters-in-law to return to their…
