Nehemiah-Return & Rebuild
Back in November 2023, my family started attending a new church that only has a service on Saturday nights since it is currently sharing a building with another church that owns it and has service on Sundays. What’s kind of funny is when we first moved to Sarasota in 2017, we had rented an apartment…

Generational Breakthroughs
I have talked some praise about Joel Osteen and his teaching since the attack at his church the other weekend. One thing I will say is that he doesn’t really have the people in the congregation use the Bible to see for themselves if what he is saying is accurate. That’s one way he teaches,…

Prompt #41: My Favorite Drink
That has changed over the years. I don’t drink alcohol or anything (I’m guessing that’s what the question really means). I did used to drink soda, but now I can’t stand it. I did used to drink coffee-still do some times-but I honestly do better during the day without it. I do drink energy drinks…

Prompt #40: Patriotism
Yes, I would say I am patriotic. What’s funny though is I don’t think that really started until my first year able to vote in 2016. If one held a conversation with me, I think they might be able to hear it in the way I talked if some things were brought up. But, then…

The Good Shepherd
When I babysit during the week, one thing I have my nephew do is watch a kid’s church episode that is up for the week. For the last few months-since November or December 2023-they have been doing a mini series on the Good Shepherd based off the familiar (to some) passage of Psalm 23. In…

Unsubscribe
If one has not heard, on Sunday (Feb 11th-yesterday at the time of doing this post), there was a shooting at Joel Osteen’s church in Houston, TX. The first article I saw about it didn’t really give many details other than active scene that police were at-one was dead, and two were injured. If I…

Prompt #39: Only One?
Really, only one law? The funny thing is when I was on campus at college I had heard about a club they had where it was a mock trial with other universities set up of what the United Nations and Congress was like when they gathered. I had tried contacting the person for that, but…

Prompt #38: My Dream Home
One thing I have learned from a success coach or life coach, whichever one that you call it, that I started listening to in 2021-22 is to be specific with your dreams when we write them down. If we write “we want to save more money by the end of the year…” put instead that…

Prompt #37: Good News
I think I would maybe throw a little mini party by myself before sharing the news with anyone else-if they didn’t hear it already. One other thing I would do is praise God and give Him thanks for the news that I heard that I was expecting.

Be All In
For about a year or so now I have been hearing more about the importance of being all in. Being all in to what God has called or asked you to do if you say yes and go for it. A bad example of not being all in: when I went to a college that…
