• We Do What We Hear

    Lately I’ve been listening to some content online about health and the benefits of certain habits, such as fasting.  There was one weekend a few weeks ago that I stumbled upon one video and continued to listen to several videos in the series.  Hearing the science behind how our bodies respond to things like sugar, […]

  • More Than I Could Ever Imagine

    I remember it so clearly.  My 7th grade science class had the privilege of going on a field trip to the zoo.  I was so excited because I knew that not every class was able to go.  And I was really looking forward to a day away from my regular old classroom. But in my […]

  • My life without words

    “If someone could only see my actions and not hear my words, what would they say are my priorities?” – James Clear (author, Atomic Habits) I came across this question recently and it really hit me hard. I tend to think of myself in a favorable light. I would like to think I’m a good […]

  • 2022

    As we begin a new year, I’ve been hearing more and more people approaching 2022 with cautious apprehension…myself included. If we are being honest, it feels like the last two years left us deflated. 2020 was supposed to be the fresh start of a new decade.  20/20 vision.  Boundless possibilities.  But just a few months […]

  • The Light of the World

    This season is so busy.  Christmas parties, family gatherings, last minute shopping, secret Santa exchanges…and the list goes on and on.  It’s so easy to lose focus on what this season is all about.  There was a very long period of Israel’s history when the prophets of God stopped speaking and Israel did not hear […]

  • Remembering His Faithfulness

    Today my Google photos made a suggestion for a 2021 year in review photo book.  Of course my first thought was that they just want me to spend more money on their products.   But as I started looking at my 2021 photos, memories of this past year came flooding back to my mind. In fact, […]

  • Thank You

    As we come to another Thanksgiving and I think about what a year it’s been, it can be easy to focus on the more difficult and sorrow filled times of the year.  Many have lost loved ones, received tough medical diagnoses, or have faced difficult financial situations. As I reflect on this past year, even […]

  • His Perspective

    Recently I traveled to another city for my cousin’s wedding.  Almost everything went well that weekend.  Everyone who was traveling got to the wedding safely and on time.  The wedding was beautiful and the celebration was a joyous occasion for our family.     But after all the wedding festivities had ended and we were preparing to […]

  • Dancing on the Waves

    One of the biggest lies that we can believe is that God does not love us. From the beginning, in the garden of Eden, the devil tried to drive a wedge between man and God. When Adam and Eve sinned by doing the one thing God asked them to not do, they hid from God.  […]

  • Chipotle Shredded Beef
