The PRAISE Cure
I came to the altar during the praise and worship segment of the service and simply began to dance before the Lord.

Presence Changes Everything
AI can’t give you what the presence of a coach can. Have you ever asked ChatGPT for advice about your marriage or mothering? What did it tell you?

Are You Holding On?

RE: The Thing You Keep Avoiding
Ever hear someone tell you, “Well, don’t get your hopes up!” Or, "Don't count your chickens before they hatch!" What does that even mean? If you are a mama hen and you have a nest full of eggs, why bother sitting on them and protecting them if you don't believe that they will ALL hatch [...]
Wouldn’t it Be Great if Everyone Just Did What We Expected Them To Do?
There are many opportunities to be upset by people in our lives. From the person who cut you off in traffic, to the one who dings your car with their door and didn't say sorry, to the boss that got brilliant results with your idea and never gave you credit for it. These things are [...]
