I couldn’t pen down one emotion to describe this period of quarantine if I tried.

2020 basically just took a wrecking ball to all of our lives. Whether it’s a lost job or a lost loved one or the fear of experiencing either, no one has gone through this period unscathed.

Why Do So Many Teens Leave Christianity As Adults?

This is a conversation that I’ve had many times and you probably have too. Why do so many of our kids that grew up in church leave Christianity when they become adults?

It is said that many teenagers leave the church when they become adults. This is no doubt shocking and sad.

Well, the bible does foretell us of a great falling away in 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3 (I’m not sure if that’s what’s going on or not) but if it is, it is alarming to see it happening right before our very eyes.

It makes you wonder (if this is prophecy) if there is nothing we can do about it. Is it just inevitable that so many people will quote-unquote “fall away”?Continue reading

How Prayer Journaling Can Bring Calm When You Feel Stretched Thin!

Benefits Of A Prayer Journal 

Do you struggle to have meaningful prayer time with God every day?

I promise I won’t judge because I certainly do. I intend to pray and I sit down and several things might happen:

1) My mind wanders
2) I fall asleep
3) insert your own mishap here.

I really hate that this happens so often because there’s so much to pray for and even though I don’t understand it completely (more on that in another post) I know prayer changes things in a mighty way.

And I need some things changed not just for me but for others around me. So prayer must happen.

But how can I solve these issues I’ve been having?

Well, I’ve been seeing prayer journals pop up everywhere on Pinterest and I believe that it will be the answer to my prayers (ok bad & cheesy joke I know).

So in today’s post, I’m going to talk about what you need to start a prayer journal and the benefits I believe you will get from using one.Continue reading

5 Important Truths That Help Me When I Doubt My Faith

Bible Truths Every Christian Should Know

Besides knowing that the Bible is the word of God, the nerd in me likes knowing all kinds of facts about the Bible.

Of course, this post could be a million words long and it still never touch the surface of all the knowledge the Bible imparts.

So I just wanted to share a few facts about the Bible that to me reinforce the fact that God inspired it.

No other book could be written the way it has and it not be God’s word.

So exciting, right!Continue reading

When Curiosity Turns Spiritual: Why Christianity and Witchcraft Don’t Mix!

I am the queen of going down rabbit holes.

Have you ever started typing a phrase into Google or Pinterest and had a phrase pop up and you just had to know what that phrase was about?

That’s what happened to me on Pinterest.

I was trying to type in Christian women into Pinterest. As I was typing, one of the suggested terms that popped up was Christian witch.

I thought “Wait, what? That’s not a thing. Surely, no Christians practice witchcraft.”

Turns out I was wrong.

Christian witchcraft is a thing.

Except it’s not really a thing and yet some people sincerely believe that it is.

I truly wanted to cry while I was writing this post.

I had no idea that Christian witches existed although I should have known because the devil never rests and is always looking to deceive as many people as possible.

I’m so heartbroken that women are falling into this trap thinking that they are walking with God when they are not. Maybe I should word this post in a nicer way but I can’t sugarcoat this.

As I strive to become more like a Proverbs 31 woman, it’s imperative to “speak with wisdom and faithful instruction”.

I will not mince words.Continue reading

5 Unique Characteristics Of The Proverbs 31 Woman That Will Blow Your Mind (With Journaling Prompts)

5 Characteristics Of The Proverbs 31 Woman

Even though she isn’t exactly real, the Proverbs 31 woman is legendary.

Christian women all over the world read this chapter in Proverbs and try and pattern their lives off of this amazing and virtuous woman.

And it’s no wonder.

She basically did it all and didn’t seem to break a sweat. She was a godly wife to her husband. Clearly a loving mother to her children. She kept the home in order and trusted God in everything she did.

Now, I’m not going to try and persuade you that you need to follow in her footsteps because it kinda makes me tired just thinking about everything she did.

But I did think it would be awesome to look at the characteristics of the Proverbs 31 woman a little differently and then reflect on those traits with some journaling prompts.

You see, the Proverbs 31 Woman lived a healthy life…and I don’t just mean physically.

I mean she was financially, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually healthy, as well.

In today’s post, I will be talking about how she is healthy in these 5 areas and then give you some journaling prompts related to them.

I hope that these journaling prompts will inspire you to think about these different areas of your life in a meaningful way and give you a new perspective.

9 Best Bible Verses To Journal When Anxiety Overwhelms You!

Powerful Bible Verses To Overcome Anxiety As Christians 

If there was ever a time when we need Bible verses to overcome anxiety, it is now!

Why? Because an estimated 40 million Americans are suffering from anxiety.

And while there should be no Christian women counted in that number I know for sure that there are (I am one of them).

Why shouldn’t any of us struggle with anxiety?

Because Jesus told us about a million different times not to be anxious ( give or take a few times).

Yet so often we still can’t overcome the constant worry and doubt that plagues so many of us.

So I thought it would be good to have a devotional and remind ourselves of 9 major things the Bible says about overcoming anxiety.

Let’s Define Some Words First…
