As someone who has a penchant for the new, novel, and exciting, it is torture when life feels ho-hum. 

I used to think a leader was someone who knows a lot, talks a lot, and works a lot. 

I have a nostalgic personality. I find comfort in stability and often feel threatened by change. In contrast, my husband dreams about change. Somehow, together, we have learned to trust God in several times of transition, but I would have preferred a manual at the start of the journey.

I love how The Message translation of the Bible puts Paul’s message about relationships, and particularly what it says about singleness.

My longest adult relationship before marriage lasted about a year. But it limped along for six months too long.

What is Christian doctrine? 

So you’re heading off to Romania/Burundi/Ecuador for a mission trip/study abroad/backpacking adventure. 

What is peace? We often define it in terms of what it ¾±²õ²Ô’t—as in, it’s the absence of conflict or distraction or anything that makes us feel uncomfortable or disturbed. 

I really, really did not like the word repentance.

In 2014, life for me exploded.
