Ever feel like you don’t have much to be thankful for or that thankfulness is not flowing freely from you? Well, I decided to sit down and write out 27 ways God has blessed me (27 just seemed like a nice number). I figured, for starters, it would shut me up and prevent me from … Read this post
Okay, okay, I admit it. Christians aren’t suppose to be scared, right? We are supposed to walk around in our perfectly, not scared bodies, shielded by the super-powers of the Holy Spirit. We are suppose to be like some kind of anti-fear force field–zapping things like phobias and anxieties with a wave of our hand. … Read this post
Today, I’m privileged to have an article featured over at Prodigal Magazine. I’m sharing about something very personal–something that I have never even talked about here on Modern Reject. I’m talking about depression and where the darkness hides… Here’s a taste: I wasn’t quite sure what was happening. I couldn’t explain it. I didn’t have … Read this post
