There a freshman at Michigan State University who went to Oxford in High School and are now experiencing their 2nd mass school shooting in their lifetime. That is unacceptable. This dystopian nightmare is not supposed to be reality for our children 💔
Guys this feels like the end of church camp! Everyone is crying and hugging, somewhere "Friends are Friends Forever" is playing in the background.
People are throwing their secular CDs in the fire and I think someone just got engaged.
I promise I'll write you all every day!
December 21st. Winter solstice. The darkest day of the year.
Every day of the fall has been getting darker towards today.
But tomorrow?
It starts getting lighter. In tiny tiny increments. But light is coming. It doesn't get any darker than today.
Light is coming.
I used to argue with others who didn’t believe women could preach and pastor. So much energy wasted.
Nowadays, I just train and provide opportunities for women to preach in our congregation. And when they do, hearts are changed, Jesus is glorified and the church is edified.
My heart is heavy for Ahmaud Arbery’s mom as she sits in a courtroom listening to details about the last terrifying minutes of her son’s life. Sending love to all the grieving mamas who have lost a child to racial violence.
"I don’t deserve anything. But by grace, through faith, Jesus has given me everything. Records come and go. The glory of God is eternal."

the outpouring love & support I’ve received has made me realize I’m more than my accomplishments and gymnastics which I never truly believed before. 🤍
