    Kacie’s Story (Part 3)

    Among the positive things that stemmed from my eating disorder, is my view on the importance of health, specifically eating right and exercising. I feel that is extremely important to take care of our bodies and to treat them like the temples that God created. Today, I would like to challenge you to take one…

    Kacie’s Story (Part 2)

    I am so thankful that God pulled me out of that terrible addiction that took two years of my life. But as I mentioned in yesterday’s post here, I still really didn’t have the relationship with God that I know He was calling me towards. Throughout the next year, I began going to a Baptist church…

    Kacie’s Story (Part 1)

    Hello Everyone! Happy Monday!  The next several weeks are going to be devoted to reader’s stories.  So today, my wife has offered to share one of her stories.  I want to remind everyone that even though this is sort of a confession, it’s really meant to provide real world examples of how God can change…

  • Jellyfish

    Jellyfish

    Beginning next week and continuing for 5 or 6 weeks, I have asked some readers to share their story.  Some of them went through a difficult time and I asked them to share what got them through it, some of them are still going through a tough time, and some of them just had a…

  • Do Something You Love

    Do Something You Love

    My wife is awesome.  She has such a good heart that it can’t help but to have an affect on those around her.   One thing that she loves to do is bake.  And the treats she makes me are DELICIOUS.  One day we were sitting at the dinner table and she was reading the…

  • Suicide

    For those of you that have been reading this blog for awhile, you may have noticed that I push for openness, for honesty, to share both your current and your past struggles, not only on this website but also to your friends and families.  With increasing pressure from the surrounding world to keep things to…

  • Amazing Grace

    Amazing Grace

    One of my absolute favorite songs is Amazing Grace.  It’s a song that I don’t hear nearly enough.  There is so much passion in the lyrics that you can feel the sorrow and resentment in every line.   It’s very rare that you get to hear the story behind why a song was written, especially a song…

  • Love Somebody

    Love Somebody

    Hopefully you got a few minutes this week to think about your church situation.  There is no point in sticking to the same routine if it’s not doing anything beneficial in your Christian walk.   If you decided to try out a new church, here are my suggestions/advice: Sometimes it will take a couple times…

  • My Church Experiences

    My Church Experiences

    I’ve had quite a few memorable experiences in church.  Some good and some bad.   I’ve been to churches where everybody knows everybody and if you are a new face, they will make a point to get to know you by name.  I’ve also been to churches where they don’t have a worship team, they…

  • Sunday Song

    Sunday Song

    Alright…so things got a little jumbled up this week and that left me with my Freebie Friday post on a Wednesday.  So today is Freebie Wednesday! Given that this week is all about going to church, and church usually falls on a Sunday, I thought it would be fun to post a little song about my favorite…

  • Should You Go To Church?

    Should You Go To Church?

    I know many people that say they believe in God but also say they don’t need church.  To say someone is not a Christian because they don’t go to church is down right wrong.  But at the same time, if you really are a Christian, you should take advantage of every opportunity to serve God…

  • Go To Church

    Go To Church

    This week’s (or month’s) challenge is not only about getting you to go to church but about getting you to go to the right church.   I will touch on my thoughts about church tomorrow and why I think church is good and why I think church is bad.  But most of the reasons I…
