Jesus Felt BIG EMOTIONS and Why We Should, Too! If you grew up in a home where BIG EMOTIONS were not tolerated, were belittled, punished, or squelched, you may have trouble FEELING YOUR FEELINGS as an adult. You may have been taught to not be so emotional. Or you may have been taught by the [...]

The Glorification of Busyness
Many of us have fallen into the trap of the glorification of busyness. We have mentally and emotionally made it mean something validating about ourselves if we can accomplish a huge list of things. But then we must quickly activate a way to cope with the stress of being over-scheduled and overwhelmed with seasons of [...]
Should You Tithe From Your Business, Ministry, or Church?
My question would be...WHY NOT? 🙂 When we tithe personally, we are aligning ourselves with God's best for us and showing Him that we honor and understand that HE is our Provider. As an entrepreneur or the head of a church or organization, you probably receive a salary from that entity and can and should [...]
Do You Want to See an Awakening?
If we desire a great awakening for our world, for our nation, for our church, then WE must become awakened OURSELVES and AWAKENING begins with an ENCOUNTER! "Blessed are those who HUNGER and THIRST after righteousness: for they SHALL BE FILLED!" Matt. 5:6 So, this verse is teaching us that the FILLING is reserved for [...]
Want to Grow Your Church, Ministry, or Business, but Feeling STUCK?
As ministers, we can so easily shift into frustration and despair when church attendance is not growing, we’ve made a mistake in implementing a “program," lost a valuable staff member or volunteer family, or shame ourselves for our human failures. The pain comes because we are not ALLOWING and PROCESSING THROUGH all the EMOTIONS that [...]

The Gospel is More Than Enough!
I’m about to kick a “Sacred Cow” but here goes… Anything we try to ADD to the purity of the Gospel will TAINT it! It needs NOTHING ELSE! We don’t need to add “horoscopes”,“manifesting”, “law of attraction”, “meditation”, or the “Enneagram”. It’s God and HIS WORD ALONE that changes people’s lives and SETS THEM FREE! [...]
You Are NOT What You FEEL
We know that when Jesus walked the earth, He was fully God and fully man. He understands completely every feeling that we have. He lived in a human body with all the physical limitations and the emotional expressions that we experience daily. Hebrews 4:15 "For we do not have a High Priest Who is unable [...]
Ministry Can Sometimes Be A Lonely Place As A Woman
I want to take a minute to invite you into a sacred space. Into the vulnerable areas of my heart. If you are a woman in the ministry you know firsthand, as do I, how isolating life in the ministry can sometimes be. You are trying to be an example to everyone around you and [...]
Who You LONG to Be Is Really Who You ARE!
When you long to be different and show up in a different way in your relationships, that is who you REALLY ARE! That person you long to be is your TRUE SELF wanting to break forth! As a coach, I help women get FREE from guilt, shame, and regret for how they’ve shown up in [...]
