Trusting God with Food Allergies

When There’s No Heartbeat

About three years ago, I lost my son.   I had entered my third trimester of pregnancy with Ian, when I found out at a doctor’s appointment that his little heart was not beating.   This was hard on so many levels, but thankfully, we had a loving...

Trust Without Borders

Years ago, I stumbled upon a song that I quickly fell in love with – “Oceans” by Hillsong. I would close my eyes and sing the lyrics day after day until one day, I actually listened to what I was professing. “Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders.  Let...

The Application of Scripture

Have you ever had a time when you lived on a verse . . . just one?  For weeks or months, you clung to the truth in that one verse and milked it for all you could.  When this happens, I believe God wants to deposit a truth in us so deeply that nothing can shake it out...

When God’s Call Feels Too Big

About Bonnie

Going through life with fear, anxiety, and discouragement can drain you mentally and physically.

I know what it’s like to face: 

  • fear, worry & anxiety, 
  • depression, 
  • battles with physical illness, 
  • losing a baby, and 
  • living the challenges of a military wife and mother

By strategically diving head-first into my Bible, praying with God, and talking to Him in my desperation, my faith began to build layer by layer. This process of walking with God, focusing on Christ’s finished work at the cross, and learning to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit has massively changed how I think and how I live.
