In light of all of the “Me Too” posts that I have seen on social media recently, I would like to address the subject. First, I have to say how sad I am that so many of my friends have experienced some form of sexual assault or harassment in their lives. I have great hope

I was just watching the new Wonder Woman trailer. I generally like superhero movies, so I’ll probably go watch it. But I find myself wondering why it’s so exciting to watch some woman fight bad guys while wearing the most ridiculously impractical clothes. Granted, none of the male superheroes wear practical outfits either, so at

In the midst of heartache, pain and trauma, it is often difficult to see what God is doing. He is the greatest defender, the most magnificent warrior. He is the one who runs after our bondage in a relentless pursuit of our freedom. He never tires of bringing us into a place of healing and

I have spent several years of my life chasing a dream. A dream of living a satisfied life. We needed more money, a different home, a different geography for that different home.

It’s not just for the artists but is used by all innovators, entrepreneurs, politicians, entertainers and even moms.” I have heard

First let me tell you what this is not. It is not a commentary on whether one or both parents should stay at home, work from home or focus on managing family and career. It is not about whether you should or shouldn’t have children, or how many you should have. It is also not

God created men and women with unique talents and abilities. His intention was for us to complement each other, unique and different, but with equal value. The misogynistic idea that men are better leaders and more suited to business, while women should remain in the home is terribly wrong. Of equal error is the more
