Hey, guys! So today is a special one for me. Today is actually my thirtieth birthday. I’ll be spending this day celebrating with my family and taking some time to relax, probably fishing or reading on the beach. Make sure you also take some time to rest and relax. There’s a lot going on in…

Cast Your Cares: Dealing with Anxiety and Trusting God in the Middle of It
It’s 2025. How’s it going? I have a question for you. How do you deal with stress and anxiety? Do you have a trusted friend you can share those struggles with? Do you bottle it all up and hope for the best? Do you take it to God and trust that He can do with…

It’s the end of August. Summer is ending and fall is coming. I always love when fall comes and we can start to feel the cooler temperatures and see the leaves change. Have you noticed any signs of fall where you’re at? It’s starting to get a little cooler here, but I’m looking forward to…

The Commandment to Rest: The Dangers of Working in Vain
“Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.” Psalm 127:1 “Nisi dominus frustra.” Without God, it is in vain. Literally: without the Lord, frustration.

Chase God’s Heart More Than His Hand: Seeking God in the Middle of a Waiting Season
So I started reading Romans recently. I’ve been reading through the Old Testament for the last little bit, aiming for a chapter a day (though that’s not always what happens).
