My sweet friend Anna moved back to Ukraine last year with her husband and her five-year-old daughter. Yesterday I messaged her, and her words broke my heart: “I am trying to stay positive, but sometimes I can’t hold my tears. I want to run, but I can’t leave my family...
The Counterfeit Happiness
Christmas is right around the corner, so we checked the children’s toys to make room for new goodies. And for heaven’s sake, we discovered that half of their birthday gifts from six months ago are still in the box! And they are nice toys like lego sets, etc, which we...
Pick Up Your Crown
Lately, I have been wearing myself thin over three main issues: my family has been dealing with sickness, a broken friendship, and the rapid deterioration of the social climate. It seems one after another, people in my family are having a cold- someone is constantly...

I’ve heard enough about how Christians should stay out of politics because we represent Jesus, and shouldn’t alienate other people. Or worse yet, “God doesn’t care about your politics.” God cares about what we think, what our attitudes are, and what we do in life, so...
When the spirit of the age became evil, be the remnant.
This has been going on for a while now; every day I read the news, these words come out of my mouth: I never thought— I never thought the most disgusting song I’ve heard won the best song of the year, yet Dr. Seuss, Mr Potato Head, and Miss Piggy are canceled. I never...
Finding Trust in a Distrusting World
