Seasons: Trust God in Your New Season

I am in a new season, as many of you are. God has directed me to go back to school to obtain my doctorate in Educational Leadership. So far, it’s been an amazing journey.

Just trust and obey. I spoke with a young lady the other day. She had been engaged to be married, but something did not feel right. She broke Read More

Forky: Life Lessons from Toy Story 4

I found this wonderful article “Life Lessons from Toy Story 4” by Rita Dunaway. The author gives us a look at the life lessons we can learn from the movie Toy Story 4. Toy Story 4 centers around a new toy named “Forky.” Actually, he’s not a fork; he’s a plastic spork. Bonnie, the little girl who owns Woody and the other lovable toys, created Forky with her own hands on her first day in kindergarten. How many of you remember how afraid you were on your first day? Bonnie is very proud of her creation, having made him from Read More

Keeping the Faith: Born to Taste the Grapes

This week’s blog is about ‘Keeping the Faith’. In Numbers 13:25-14:10, the twelve spies come back with some very large grapes and a story to tell.

So many people are stuck, lost, or simply roaming the earth without the slightest idea of why they are here. Ecclesiastes 3:11 tells us, “ He has made everything beautiful in its time.
