I am Ashamed

Why I Contend
Christianity has become a competition in suburban America, especially among women. It is no longer about real, bloody, nailed-to-a-tree-while-naked-and-ripped-to-shreds grace.
Theology Thursday: Jeremiah 29:11
It is my sincere hope that you have received the salvation so graciously offered by Christ Jesus, and your hope is in that, because then you know that your future lies in Heaven alongside the resurrected Christ.
I Won! Meeting Mary Willson at #TGCW16
I have felt very…lonely in the faith, lately. All alone, actually, if truth be told. And when I read that text, it was if God was reminding me that He sees me.
The Kellers Kissed, Carson Cried, Piper Sang: Highlights of #TGCW16
“Absolutely nothing escapes the sovereignty of God, yet, at the same time, you have to say, ‘This is outrageous’.”
Does it Matter if I’m a Calvinist?

Target, Jen Hatmaker & Matthew 7

You’ve seen this verse used out of context somewhere, I guarantee it. Most likely, you’ve seen this used on a running shirt (when not healing – still – from a broken foot, I fancy myself a runner), an athletic team’s t-shirt, or on Beth Moore’s most recent Facebook banner. “I can do all things through… Continue reading Theology Thursday: Philippians 4:13
