March 11, 2020
The day everything changed. Looking back now, I honestly cannot believe it’s been 4 years since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.

A Word, Please
Life is hard. *understatement of the millennium* I’m sure you know this all too well. Jesus Himself said in John 16:33, “In this world you will have trouble.” Maybe this isn’t very reassuring. “So I’m supposed to struggle, be anxious, and have a life wracked with trauma?” No. The verse… (Keep Reading)

The Fast and the Serious
Moses went for 40 days without food. Jesus did the same. And both of them came out of their fasts on fire for their mission. They went in spiritually hungry but physically full, and after 40 days, they emerged physically depleted, but spiritually rejuvenated. But why? What’s the reason behind… (Keep Reading)

Mission Accomplished in 2023
I went 3 for 3 on meeting my writing goals. If you’re like most people, you probably made a list of things you hoped to accomplish last year. Well, I hate to break it to you, but 2023 is over. Which begs the question: did you achieve your goals? (Keep Reading)

The Endgame
“And I…am Iron Man” These five words marked the culmination of arguably the most gripping and interconnected movie series of all time. 22 films – totalling up to 50 hours of watch time – had led to this moment. The snap of Tony Stark’s fingers. (WARNING: Spoilers) (Keep Reading)
