What battle(s) are you facing, and how is your doubt in God’s plan for your life keeping you from being part of a bigger movement? That was the heart of Warren Gasaway’s sermon, “Climb the Hill” on Sunday at Trinity Baptist Church. What is a movement? Simply put, a movement is a group of people working together to advance a
Yesterday I worked my last event as the Director of Recruitment/Retention/Public Relations for LifeNet, Inc. After four years of working for an amazing company, today my shift focuses to spending more time with my family and working for my church. During my time, I coordinated more than 300 events, taught a multitude of classes, and had an opportunity to serve
“We marry our opposite and spend the rest of our life trying to change them. Who else can relate to that statement?” As I was teaching a workshop centered on personalities at a teacher in-service training this week, I asked the room that question. Heads nodded up and down and hands went up in agreement. I may have even heard
Recently, I picked up my daughter after work and headed home for one of those rare evenings where it was just the two of us. I had been looking forward to it all day, but something got in the way. My mind. An introvert, I spend way more time in my mind than I should. I even have a tick.

How often do you write the words, “I’ll pray for you” or hit the little 🙏 icon on a social media post, only to quickly send up a, “Dear God, help Susie” prayer … and that’s the end of it? Guilty! I am pretty organized in a lot of areas of my life. But when the prayer list goes around
Do you know what’s always been tough for me? Praying out loud in front of a group of people. I’m not going to lie. I even get anxiety at night praying out loud beside my kiddo and my husband. An introvert by nature, I like to collect all my thoughts together before I ever speak a word. I sit in
Ever do something with the best of intentions, and out of left field came someone mad at you for what you had done? “No good deed goes unpunished.” Those are the initial words that came to my mind as I read a TXT from someone recently whose disappointment in me was misdirected. Worse yet, I allowed the person’s reaction to
This week I worked my first senior health fair since COVID stopped the events from happening. My morning hadn’t gone as planned, and I really felt I needed to be somewhere else instead of at the event. I walked in to setup 5 minutes before the event was opening, and I had a lady standing there waiting to learn what
