Forgiveness Is a Choice, Not a Feeling
The first time God asked me to forgive someone, my answer was no. Not dramatically — just honestly. If you have ever felt that way, this post is where the forgiveness series begins. Forgiveness is not a feeling you wait for. It is a conscious choice you make — imperfectly, maybe tearfully, maybe through gritted teeth. In Part 1 of the Forgiveness Series we explore what forgiveness actually is, why healing begins with it, and the one question that starts the whole process. This is not a tidy three step plan. This is an honest, faith rooted conversation about what it really costs to choose freedom over resentment.
When Friendships End and God Doesn't
Friendship breakups are one of the most underrated forms of grief, and nobody gives us enough language for them. There are no rituals, no playlists, no clear terminology for what it feels like when someone who knew your inside jokes and your 2am thoughts simply isn't there anymore. In this post we talk honestly about why friendships end, what it means to grow in different directions, and what Job 1:21 has to do with the people we love and lose. If you are in a season of friendship loss or just trying to make sense of relationships that have shifted, this one is for you.
The Hourglass in My Head
Anxiety doesn't always show up for the big moments. Sometimes it shows up on a Tuesday morning in your closet and feels just as loud and urgent as a real crisis. If you've ever felt trapped in a spiral of what ifs, you're not alone. God's Word has something to say about it.
In this post we explore what anxiety actually feels like from the inside, the gap between knowing scripture and letting it work in you, and how 2 Timothy 1:7 is helping shift the battle of what ifs into something steadier. This is not a one size fits all fix. This is an honest conversation about anxiety, faith, and the Holy Spirit meeting you right where you are.
