When I ventured into the book of Daniel this year, I didn't plan on emerging with the beginnings of a Christmas Bible reading plan. But then came Micah where the promise of Christ unfolded again.

Grab Your Daily Gratitude List

November 17, 2020 by Kristi 4 Comments

Have you ever created a daily gratitude list? Recounting our thanks is vital in a Christian life of faith, yet a struggle often exists in this area. Hand raised. I work hard at remembering to thank hubby for the long hours he puts in at his job and even for the little things he does for us. I try to remember to thank God for answered prayer.

We plead with a silent cry, "God, do you see Continue Reading

I stood in the grocery checkout line Friday. That's where I noticed it. On the magazine covers, every face peering back at me was white. (Well, except for Megan Markell, but her royal status kicks things up a notch.) I noticed a similar message nearly twenty years ago. Where were the faces of color? These were secular magazines, but we can ask the same in our Christian community. Where are the Christians of Color? Here. They are right Continue Reading
