What I've Been Writing...
Why AI Parenting Advice Falls Shorts
Wisdom begins with the fear of the Lord (Prov. 9:10). It starts with knees bowed before the God of heaven and earth in joyful submission. AI has no knees.
The Slow Cooker of Sanctification
If suffering is a microwave, inconvenience and discomfort are slow cookers. They take longer, but sanctification still happens beneath the surface.
God's Plan for the Poor
He who was rich became poor for us that we might become rich. If poverty is not too low for our Lord, how can it be too low for his people?
Biblical Hospitality: What it is & how to practice it
Biblical hospitality is about more than perfectly curated spaces and well-entertained guests. Biblical hospitality is an opportunity to showcase the character of God to the watching world.
About Me
In 3rd grade I wrote a story about popcorn for Mrs. Colander's creative writing assignment. As she passed back our graded papers, she looked me in the eye and said "You have a gift. You should keep writing." As the saying goes, the rest is history...
My words have changed form and shape over the years but the delight remains. Now I primarily write about applying Scripture to daily life. I've found this to be a bottomless ocean to explore.
I live just outside Washington, DC in Northern Virginia where I'm raising 3 children by the grace of God, working my day-job, loving my church, and doing whatever I can to support my pastor/ husband. It is a normal life. It is a sacred life.
Thanks for joining me!
