      <image:title>Blog - Forward - If your focus is constantly pulled back to the past—or down into fear, comparison, or distraction, it becomes almost impossible to move forward with clarity and purpose. But when your eyes are fixed on Jesus, on who He is, what He has done, and where He is leading, you find strength to keep going. He is both the beginning and the end of your faith. The One who started the work in you is the One who will carry it through.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Disruptions and Interruptions - Yet the most hopeful response we can have is not to resist disruption, but to be prepared for it—not with a contingency plan, but with a spiritual plan. A way of living that allows interruptions to become opportunities: to grow a faith that cannot be shaken, a living faith that shapes our lives and influences the lives we touch.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - All in - Most of us can rejoice sometimes, pray when we remember, and give thanks when life feels comfortable. But always, continually, in everything—that stretches us into places we’d rather not go.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Giving thanks in everything doesn’t require us to pretend everything is good—it invites us to remember that God is good, even when circumstances are not. It’s an act of worship, a posture that keeps us anchored when life feels shaky or overwhelming.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Faithful in the ordinary - We all walk through days where everything feels routine. Predictable. A little too familiar. The work in front of us seems small, uncelebrated, and easily overlooked—and it can make us feel that way too. Most days aren’t thrilling or traumatic—they’re simply normal.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Bread of life - When we host people in our homes, one of the first questions we ask is: What should I make? And the answer often depends on who’s coming. If kids are on the way, maybe it’s chicken tenders and mac and cheese. If someone can’t have gluten, we plan around that. If a friend is vegetarian, the menu shifts again.</image:title>

But God measures success by something deeper and often unseen: faithfulness, obedience, humility, love, and a life that reflects His glory.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Change - Some changes excite us; they bring hope and energy. Others leave us anxious, fearful, or full of dread.

      <image:title>Blog - Soul care for grief - Paul reminds us that believers grieve with hope. For those without Christ, death feels final—an ending without recovery or return. But for those whose lives are hidden in Christ, hope lives on.</image:title>

      <image:caption>But here’s the truth—this exchange is not automatic. It is only possible when we belong to Jesus, personally and positionally.

      <image:title>Blog - Zacchaeus - I can relate. When I was seeking to see Jesus for myself, I was carrying a heart full of guilt, resentment, and rebellion.

      <image:title>Blog - Don’t settle - That’s exactly what we see in the book of Judges. God had promised His people the land—but instead of fully trusting Him to drive out their enemies, they compromised. They allowed those who opposed them to remain. They chose peace through blending rather than obedience through faith. And it cost them dearly.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - A mustard seed yes - When I’m empty, hungry, weak, uncertain, or overwhelmed, I’ve learned where to go: the Word. When I consume it—really take it in—it nourishes me. His faithfulness fills the emptiness. It strengthens what’s weak. It reminds me of what’s true. And it helps me recall all the ways He’s come through before.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Rooted - This is a sobering reality. It’s possible to hear the Word, even respond with joy, and still wither when the heat of hardship comes—because there’s no root.</image:title>
      <image:caption>It’s not enough to hear. It’s not enough to be moved emotionally. The Holy Spirit may use someone to plant the Word in your heart, but unless you allow Him to grow deep roots of truth within you, you won’t endure.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Pride - Charles Finney once described pride as “a disposition to exalt self, to get above others, to hide our defects and to pass for more than we are.” It’s a powerful definition because it reveals something we often fail to see—pride isn’t just arrogance or boasting; it’s any posture of the heart that puts me at the center.</image:title>

      <image:caption>Lord, forgive me when I make things complicated. When I act as though Your love is something I have to earn rather than something You have freely given. When I focus more on doing than on being—being still in Your presence, being obedient to Your voice, being willing to love as You love. You are not impressed by my checklists. You are not moved by my striving.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>But here is a question for us to consider: Who chooses to stay in a secret place? I want to know where it is. I want to have access to it when I need it. But dwelling there—in secret? Am I honestly willing to live in someone’s shadow? To remain always underneath, in a smaller way? Or do I like to step out of His shadow and have all the light and attention on me?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Trials</image:title>
      <image:caption>Perfection and completion are accomplished through the practice of patience. Patience, in turn, is developed through trials—the often tedious and rigorous experiences that stretch us beyond our natural ability to change our circumstances or endure their pressures. Trials come with no time limit and no guaranteed relief, yet they teach us something invaluable. Out of desperation, a deep dependence on God is born, and a measure of patience is gained.</image:caption>

At the heart of the Christmas story is a message of hope—a light that meets us in the darkest places and reminds us we are deeply loved.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Who are you?</image:title>
      <image:caption>In every setting and situation, when the question is turned to me, I want to say with Christ confidence: I am His and He is mine. I am speaking into the wilderness of the world. There are many highly trained and articulate voices competing with my voice. Speaking and teaching that Jesus is the Christ and He is the only way to the Father is not always well received. But this is my message because He is my identity. “He is the way, the truth, and the life, and I have nothing else to share.”</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Wisteria</image:title>
      <image:caption>Consider the wisteria. All winter long it’s dormant. But come spring, it thrives, climbing over and choking off the vegetation around it. The wisteria’s purple blossoms cascade beautifully over limbs, filling the air with their sweet fragrance. But don't be deceived by its beauty. This plant wraps its graceful tendrils around its support, completely taking control. In the same way, the desire to compete is subtle yet destructive.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Compassion</image:title>
      <image:caption>As they sought rest, the multitudes followed. Jesus, moved with compassion, taught them many things and performed the miracle of feeding the 5,000. Despite the disciples' weariness, Jesus' compassion took precedence. I think we fear that showing compassion will leave us drained and depleted. However, just as Jesus advised his disciples to rest, it is important for us to take time for rejuvenation. Acts of kindness and generosity can actually empower and strengthen us.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Ask Jesus to take you beyond where you are right now in your faith. Are you sincere about coming closer to Him? Peter teaches me to ask Jesus for more faith-building circumstances. That usually means it will be unfamiliar and uncomfortable. Peter boldly asks to come to Jesus, and he reminds me, if it means getting out of my place of familiarity, be willing.</image:caption>

Imagine placing them in Jesus’ hands and thank Him for His gracious and generous offer to take up your concerns. Rest in this truth. Nothing I carry is too heavy for Him. Will you accept His invitation to come to Him and find rest?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - How does your garden grow?</image:title>
      <image:caption>Sin may start small and occasional, but it grows bold and multiplies. Think of criticism, complaining, begrudging, resentment, worry, lying, deception, gossip (to name a few) and how they all grow and threaten to take over the thoughts and intents of your heart. What appears harmless is often an invitation for the enemy to enter and continue to take over. He will ravage, plunder, and rob your heart and soul of spiritual fruit and steal the joy of the Lord.</image:caption>

It's a universal human experience that can lead to depression and despair. However, a simple, kind word has the remarkable ability to uplift a burdened heart. It serves as a reminder of the significance of offering encouragement, empathy, and compassion to those around us.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - The truth about faith - I remember so well those early days of following Jesus. I had jumped into a life of faith with both feet—I was changed. Old interests and priorities shifted and my sincerity to know and grow in my walk with Jesus was solid. We moved to a new town and started looking for a new church. Women’s church ministries were reaching beyond the weekday “circle” meeting and expanding into luncheons, banquets, programs, and retreats. I was a participator, hungry to learn more, and often found myself listening to personal stories of faith with dramatic circumstances that always ended with “BUT God...”</image:title>
      <image:caption>Leaving one night, I had the very clear question: “Why does it seem like there always has to be some terrible tragedy or extreme situation to validate the need for a personal relationship with God? I love Him and I want to serve Him, but does genuine faith require a crisis of epic proportion to prove to be real?” The thought lingered but was soon dismissed as I continued to cultivate my relationship with Jesus.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>God gave Jonah a call and he ran from it. He refused and resisted the responsibility God charged Him with. Sometimes we find God’s call intimidating and when we are convicted of the responsibility, we end up fleeing like Jonah. And, like Jonah, this leads to shrinking, shunning, and sinking.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - What moving forward with Rooted &amp;amp; Radiant has taught me - It is to your advantage not only to continue what you began and were desiring to do, but to complete it.

For if there is first a willing mind, it is accepted according to what you have, not according to what you don’t have.</image:title>

      <image:title>Blog - Make memories with the Lord&amp;nbsp; - When it is dark, quiet, and I’m awake, it’s God’s name and His words that I remember, review, and revisit.</image:title>
      <image:caption>What is your favorite way to preserve memories?  Common ones are photo albums, journals, diaries, scrapbooks, baby books, and memory boxes. These become treasured records of milestones and important reminders of our past.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The Word of God will shine supernatural light on the natural situation. The direction of this journey will be revealed as I read and listen to His voice in the Word. I pray, “Jesus, enlighten my mind and spirit with your words. My insight and perspective is limited. It is humanly impossible to see the future and understand the full reach You intend to make in or through me in this decision. I need Your wisdom, clarity, and Your point of view.”</image:caption>

      <image:caption>As we look back over 2022, and prepare to seek Him night and day in 2023, I want to encourage you to take some time and begin to write down some phrases, some words, and some new songs of praise to the God of your salvation. He is always at work in our lives and because we know and experience new mercies every single day we wake up, we can ask the Holy Spirit to help us write an original, never heard before song of praise that flows from our heart to God’s.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Many of us have been working through advent devotionals and genuinely seeking to prepare our hearts. But I know the reality of the distractions heaped on us this time of year— exams, year end reports and meetings, programs, performances, parties, and people. Even the most diligent and determined follower of Jesus can get sidetracked on the way to find the Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The minute I took this precious gift of life into my arms, he came into my heart. I realized God was not asking me to share this space, he wanted to do so much more for me. He wanted to expand my heart to embrace more of His presence, more of His goodness and mercy, and more of His great love for me. Expanding our family, stretching our reach, lengthening the cords of our tent, and strengthening our pegs (Isaiah 54:2) is His plan.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Podcast - Bonus Episode: Adoption By God and Family - Mother’s Day brings a range of emotions for many people. In this bonus Mother’s Day episode, I had the privilege of sitting down with my 17-year-old grandson, Luke, who was adopted when he was 18 months old.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Together, we talk about the complexities of his situation and how more than one thing can be true—something can be both good and hard at the same time. I hope this beautiful conversation touches you as much as it did me, and makes you feel a little less alone if you are someone who feels gaps or spaces in your own life.</image:caption>
