Dear Church, dear Body of Christ, We try so hard to run from the wrathful God, we try so hard to make the God of Judgment palatable and nicely packaged. We want God served to us in neat cuts, saran-wrapped on a disposable styrofoam tray. And as a woman, I have been hand-fed a God…

10/24/22

Some days are hard and I just want to give up, but some days life is really good. Sometimes everything hurts and sometimes I'm so grateful to be alive.

we’re finding happiness in our own hopeless ways

This is a prayer and realization that I wrote earlier this year. It was in response to a question I had: what is art without God, or created by those without the heart/mindset of Christ? what should be our response and is it okay to find joy in it? I hope you feel something from…

Happy New Year, and a First Ever Resolution

Wow . . . it feels surreal that another year has gone by (even though I haven't lived that many years). 2018 was an eventful year, and part of me feels 2019 won't be any different.
