My crazy coworker
My coworker is obsessed. I’m not exaggerating when I say that. Actually, I may have thought he was crazy more than once. He is always praising God. Recently, I heard him preach a sermon about praise. It was TOTALLY consistent with everything he’s been saying with his life for the 7.5 years I have beenContinue reading “My crazy coworker”
Stop supporting Hollywood
I don’t even remember the last time I went to a movie. It’s been a lot of years. It may have been to see The Shack. I canceled Netflix and Hulu because of raunchy content. Hollywood sucks. The feeling is mutual I’m sure. They openly the attack Christians. If you pay for movie tickets youContinue reading “Stop supporting Hollywood”
We are jerks
Ok there I said it. We are. We love jerks too. We marry jerks and we follow jerks. We pay money to see jerks. What’s up with that? Why do we believe the nonsense that jerks are cool and desirable?

God’s way vs. the world’s way
When Jesus walked this earth, he didn’t do with things the way people expected. Even his disciples we’re taking aback by his way of doing things. He didn’t fit the mold of what they thought the Messiah would be. Gods values are often the opposite of what the world’s values are. As Christ followers weContinue reading “God’s way vs. the world’s way”
I was a John
No, I wasn’t formerly a biological male. I was a customer to the Revelation chapter 17 prostitute. She is false religion. One of the seven angels who had poured out the seven bowls came over and spoke to me. “Come with me,” he said, “and I will show you the judgment that is going toContinue reading “I was a John”
Praying for enemies

Time doesn’t heal all wounds
They say that time heals all wounds. I don’t think that’s true. I think that some just fester, get infected and scab over. in the case of physical abuse, it doesn’t even scab over. Oh it’s an open wound that can stay open indefinitely. 50 years ago the world was a much different place. ManyContinue reading “Time doesn’t heal all wounds”
Living a Spirit-filled life
I’m going to be honest, this is a new way of life for me. I hated life. I liked work because of the validation that I received there, but when I left work was when the life I hated kicked in. After my ex husband left and social distancing due to Covid kicked in, GodContinue reading “Living a Spirit-filled life”
