I just returned from a trip to DC and the GGG 2025 Women’s Conference. I had a great time, ate some really good food, met some great people, did some shopping, and unashamedly worshipped the living God. The trip started with cancelled flights, and two members of our group did not make it to DC. Our 4-person girls’ trip turned into a group of two. God’s Glamorous Girls is a women’s conference hosted by Faith City Central in Brandywine, MD, with pastor Dr. DeeDee Freeman. The conference had a phenomenal list of speakers, and the worship was on point. Nona Read More

Worship in Motion: Honoring God with Every Fiber
A whole-body workout and whole-body worship share remarkable parallels in their approach to transformation and dedication. Physical Engagement vs. Spiritual Engagement During a whole-body workout, we engage multiple muscle groups simultaneously, creating comprehensive strength and endurance. Similarly, whole-body worship involves our entire being in devotion to God. Romans 12:1 captures this beautifully: “Therefore I urge you, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies [dedicating all of yourselves, set apart] as a living sacrifice, holy and well-pleasing to God, which is your rational (logical, intelligent) act of worship.” Consistency and Discipline Both physical and spiritual workouts require regular commitment.

When Finite Meets Infinite: Job’s Lesson in Humility
I’ve been reading the book of Job for the last couple of weeks. Job was subjected to a tremendous amount of suffering, and he had questions. We often find ourselves in the same predicament. We are facing trials and tribulations, and we want answers from God. I think it is appropriate to ask questions without blaming God. When Job started to question God, God had a few questions of His own to ask Job. Then the Lord answered Job out of the whirlwind and said: Who is this that darkens counsel [questioning my authority and wisdom] by words without knowledge? Read More
God’s Masterpiece: Beautifully and Meticulously Created
We Are God’s Masterpiece, Crafted with Intention Just as an artist pours deliberate thought into every brushstroke and color choice, God formed us with meticulous care and purpose. Ephesians 2:10 declares, “For we are His workmanship [His own masterwork, a work of art], created in Christ Jesus [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, ready to be used] for good works, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set], so that we would walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us].” The Greek word “poiema” (handiwork) literally means “work of art” or Read More
It’s Time to Let Go!
Philippians 3:13-14 – But one thing I do: Forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the [heavenly] prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Are you holding on to those things God told you to release? It’s time to let go. Scripture Focus: “Let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.” — Hebrews 12:1 Are you carrying things that God never asked you to bear? Sometimes, it’s not the obvious Read More
From Grass to Grace: Lessons from Your Lawn
I was awakened early this morning by someone mowing their lawn. As I lay there listening to the roar of that engine, I thought about how mowing the lawn relates to our walk of faith. Here are my thoughts: *Regular Maintenance Prevents Overgrowth Just as grass grows continuously and requires regular cutting to stay healthy and manageable, our spiritual lives need consistent attention. When we neglect daily prayer, Bible reading, and fellowship, spiritual “weeds” like pride, bitterness, or worldly desires can quickly take root and choke out our relationship with God. Regular spiritual maintenance through daily disciplines keeps our hearts Read More
