Hey Reader, The ending of Nehemiah is not quite what we expected! After 12 chapters of rebuilding the wall and seeing God's hand at work, chapter 13 feels like a harsh dose of reality. When Nehemiah returns to Jerusalem to find the people in a worse condition then when he left them, He is furious. His responds should lead us to examine ourselves and our own spiritual integrity. In Nehemiah 13, we unpack some hard but necessary truths that will bless you if you watch all the way through. Friend, this may be a bit of a challenging word but if there are areas of compromise in your life, today is the day to deal with them. You don't have to do it in your own strength - check out the full video here for encouragement and prayer. I'm cheering you on as you pursue undivided loyalty to our amazing God! P.S. Need help identifying areas of compromise or establishing holy habits? Grab the Nehemiah Bible Study Guide for helpful self-evaluation questions and next steps. It's never too late to align your life with God's standards!

Hey Reader, Have you ever found yourself stuck between two options, praying for clarity but still wondering which direction is really God’s will? In my first-ever guest interview on YouTube, I sat down with my friend, author and Bible teacher Katie M. Reid to talk about the often-overlooked truths behind decision-making as a woman of faith. And wow—this conversation was RICH. One YouTube viewer said:“This conversation actually hit a lot of questions that I'm dealing with right now… Going to...
Hey Reader, We’ve reached the final part of our When Mountains Don’t Move series. Over the past two Mondays, we’ve journeyed to Mount Sinai to experience God’s covenant in solitude and to Mount Carmel to see His power revealed in the midst of opposition. Today, we climb our last mountain together—one that takes us beyond the familiar into the breathtaking. On Mount Tabor, Jesus revealed His supernatural glory to a select few disciples, leaving them forever changed. This final mountain reminds...
