  • Why We Need the Holy Spirit

    Why We Need the Holy Spirit

    This week, we’ll finish a three-part miniseries on the Trinity. Two weeks ago, I touched on God the Father, and last week, we explored Jesus the Son. This week, we’ll conclude with the Holy Spirit (our Paraclete). As Christians, we serve one God – not three. I recently came across… (Keep Reading)


  • Why We Need Jesus the Son

    Why We Need Jesus the Son

    Last week, we jumped into a new series on the Trinity. We’re focusing on why each member of the Trinity matters in our present time. Again, I’m not a pastor with years of seminary training. If you have deeper questions, you should ask a spiritual leader in your life. (Keep Reading)


  • Why We Need God the Father

    Why We Need God the Father

    Hello there! After a slightly lengthy series on the Kings of Judah, we reached the climax last week. Jesus came to earth, lived a perfect life, died on the cross, and rose from the dead for our sins. Jesus was God. But there’s more to it than that. As Christians,… (Keep Reading)


  • Share Your Faith (Takeaways from GoLove)

    Share Your Faith (Takeaways from GoLove)

    The chill of a Spring evening was no match for the anticipatory chill rushing through our veins. After hours of preparation, we were about to step out in faith. More accurately, we were about to step out and share our faith. With strangers. (Keep Reading)


  • Life of a King: Joash’s Mentor

    Life of a King: Joash’s Mentor

    When I, Joash, son of Ahaziah, became King at the age of seven, I obeyed my mentor, Jehoiada, in everything I did. I started by commanding the Levites to rebuild the Temple. After twenty years, I confronted Jehoiada, asking him why nothing had happened. We made a plan. By placing… (Keep Reading)


  • Life of a King: Athaliah’s Treason

    Life of a King: Athaliah’s Treason

    As official court scribe for Athaliah, wife of Jehoram and mother of the late King Ahaziah, and first queen of Judah, I record her words as follows in their unaltered form: Upon discovering that my son was dead, murdered at the hands of the Israelite Jehu, grandson of Nimshi, I… (Keep Reading)


  • Life of a King: Jehoshaphat’s Leadership

    Life of a King: Jehoshaphat’s Leadership

    When I, Jehoshaphat, son of Asa, became King of Judah, I aspired to follow in my father’s footsteps. I knew I could not allow Judah to carry on with its idolatrous ways. Because they had forgotten God’s Law, they were sinning against the LORD. I quickly appointed teachers and Levites… (Keep Reading)


  • Growth Points: Practice True Worship

    Growth Points: Practice True Worship

    Last weekend I was back at camp, handling tech and photography for my church’s Women’s Retreat. Aside from being outnumbered 160-8 by the opposite gender and editing pictures until almost midnight [twice], I thought the Retreat was amazing and impactful. I came close to calling this post “Fruit at Camp… (Keep Reading)


  • Growth Points: Spend Time in Prayer

    Growth Points: Spend Time in Prayer

    Today’s story began an hour ago. School was done for the day, and I was lacing up my shoes to go for a walk. As I step out the door, a voice inside me says: Run a 5K. My brain immediately responds: No, why would I do that? Besides, my… (Keep Reading)


  • Charlie Kirk: The Price of Truth

    Charlie Kirk: The Price of Truth

    Whether you agree with all his views or not, one finds it hard to deny that Charlie Kirk was an outspoken Christian. It was this bold and unafraid-to-stand-for-truth nature that led to his murder while speaking at a university campus on September 10, 2025. (Keep Reading)


  • God Speaks (a message from Samuel’s dad)

    God Speaks (a message from Samuel’s dad)

    Hey WLF readers. This is Samuel’s dad, Jason. I recently shared with Samuel what I think is a pretty cool (and crazy) God moment that I experienced recently. He suggested that this could be a guest post on WLF, so I wrote it out. I hope it’s an encouragement to… (Keep Reading)


  • The Fallacy Sessions: Prayer Does Nothing

    The Fallacy Sessions: Prayer Does Nothing

    Why Pray? Assuming you’re a Christian (and if you’re not, please let me know – I’d love to talk with you about it!), you’ve probably heard that prayer is important. Yet there are so many other things in our lives, and sitting down in stillness and silence is tough. So… (Keep Reading)
