Getting Out of Your Comfort Zone
It was faith that brought Isaac into Abraham’s arms. Faith that kept Peter up when he walked on water. Faith that helped Moses lead the Israelites across the Red Sea.

I’m not sure what the hype was with the end of the world coming in 2012. The “end of the world” has come in my lifetime at least 7 times already. And yet I’m still here. Why? Well, that’s still a mystery to me. 😉 Although you may think I’m joking, this is 100% true. […] Read more…

God, Why?
Questions. They began from the moment that we find the words to say them. About why the sky is blue, how you can grow tall, and what makes the world go round. Questions about the world we see with our eyes, the people around us, and the life that we live. And for the most […] Read more…
God’s Definition of Love
