I have a t-shirt and across the front in white block lettering it reads #TIRED.

What are your deepest needs and what can you do to address them?
Recently, I was blessed to spend time with a friend I hadn’t seen in years.

How you feel in your home matters to God. Here’s why.

How do you explain the trinity to your children?
When you think about the primary things you want your toddler to learn, the trinity probably isn't one of them (it's probably not even in your top 100) Most of us barely feel confident explaining this doctrine to other adults.

Where do you go to find community when you need it the most?
Finding our people is one of life’s best discoveries. But when we are distanced from others emotionally or physically, we can feel untethered.

Do you want to be a more engaged parent? First, know your strengths.
Every person interviewed at Facebook is asked the same interview question: “On your very best day at work—the day you come home and think you have the best job in the world—what did you do that day?” The genius behind this question is that it gets to the core of the applicant’s primary motivation ...
