Everything you want to know about Nicole…or don’t.
Happy Friday and what a happy Friday it is, indeed. Why? Well, I’m currently in California with my husband and kiddos. We’ve been here for a few days and have a few more days to go. So, to that end, I’m taking a mini-break from the blog until Monday. I’ll be back on Tuesday, however, … Read this post
No one ever told me that marriage, and then motherhood, would systematically alter my self-esteem. My husband is amazing, beyond amazing actually. He does not deplete my self-esteem, only adds to it, but upon being married, I realized just how insecure I actually am. Suddenly, the idea of being spiritually tied to someone made me … Read this post
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
So last week, I discovered that Modern Reject was named as one of the Top 200 Ministry Blogs of 2012 by Church Relevance. I’ll be honest, I was way geeked out. I was stoked and honored, albeit a bit confused as to how I ended up on the list. Then, Kent Shaffer, who writes Church … Read this post
I feel like I’ve been waiting a lot lately and to be honest, I’m not even sure what I’m waiting for. It just seems that something, anything, besides what’s happening should be happening. I keep waiting for God to do something miraculous and it’s not like I’m needing a miracle right now. It’s more so … Read this post
The last few weeks I haven’t quite been myself. Well, maybe I have been, since I guess you’re almost always yourself. But what I mean is, I’ve been unmotivated, pretty stinkin’ tired, and uninterested in blogging with my usual passion and excitement (you may have noticed). I’m sure it’s just a phase. I think. I … Read this post
from the archives On my good days, I am happy and smiling. On my bad days, I am grumpy, short-tempered, and irritable. On my good days, I feel content and at peace, thanking God for the life he has given me and the ways in which He has provided. On my bad days, I am … Read this post
Happy Wednesday, which also means happy He Said/She Said day. Today is the day we diverge from our usual broadcasting to talk about men and women. In my time writing here on Modern Reject, one thing that people thank me for more than almost anything else is for talking so openly about my marriage. And … Read this post
