Have you ever studied the names of God in the order they are revealed to us in the Bible?

It's a life-changing experience!

Let's take a journey through these 16 names of God—Elohim, Yahweh, El Elyon, Adonai, El Shaddai, El Olam, Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Rapha, Jehovah Nissi, Qanna, Jehovah Mekoddishkem, Jehovah Shalom, Jehovah Sabaoth, Jehovah Raah, Jehovah Tsidkenu, Jehovah Shammah.

2 Truths About the Beauty of Adoption

11/3/2023

0 Comments

 
November is the time of year when we pause to #givethanks. It's also National #Adoption Awareness Month. As an adoptive mother, I’m often asked about our story, what God has taught me, and other questions people are curious about. This November, I challenge you not only to consider the beauty of adoption and how you can help #adopting families but to also remember and thank #God for your status as an #adopted child in God’s family. There is nothing more beautiful than that! #Bible #Christian
November is the time of year when many of us pause to reflect and give thanks. It is also National Adoption Awareness Month. As an adoptive mother, I’m often asked about our story, what God has taught me, and a host of other questions that people are very curious to have answered. Becoming a mom through adoption has been a two-fold blessing. 
​
  • It has given me the blessing of raising, loving, and nurturing our daughter.
  • It has deepened my understanding of the biblical doctrine of adoption — how God has loved me, pursued me, and made me His daughter. 

In my short, five years of motherhood, God has driven two very important truths into my heart regarding adoption — both of my daughters and my own. ​

Stabilizing Truths About Our God – Part 1

10/27/2023

I'm sure you've heard kids say something like, “Mom, you ALWAYS say no…” or maybe it’s your teen who says, “You ALWAYS think I'm doing wrong…” But what do we realize about both of these situations? ALWAYS doesn’t really mean all the time because I know that my mom didn’t ALWAYS say no to me when I asked for something and that is only my personal experience. I can imagine that you could testify something similar in this scenario. #Bible #Biblestudy #God #truth #newblogpost #goodreads #amreading
How many times in our lives do we use the word always but really only mean sometimes?

I’m sure you have heard kids say something like, “Mom, you ALWAYS say no when I ask…” or maybe it’s your teen who says, “You ALWAYS think I am doing wrong…” I am sure there are other situations that you can fill in these scenarios with. But what do we realize about both of these situations? ALWAYS doesn’t really mean all the time because I know that my mom didn’t ALWAYS say no to me when I asked for something and that is only my personal experience. I can imagine that you could testify something similar in this scenario.

 
The beautiful truth is that when it comes to our heavenly Father whatever He says He really means that to the complete sense of the word. Always means always every single time when it comes to our God. ​

Philip and the Ethiopian Eunuch: A Divine Encounter

10/20/2023

0 Comments

 
Let's explore the story of Philip & the Ethiopian Eunuch from Acts 8, and understand its significance to the early church and us. This story is a remarkable account of God’s divine guidance and direction, a hunger and thirst for understanding, and the transformative power of the Gospel. Through this Divine encounter, we will not only see the importance of God's guidance and direction, but also our role as believers to share the Gospel, and the inclusivity of God's Kingdom.
Today I want us to explore the story of Philip the Evangelist and the Ethiopian Eunuch found in Acts 8:26-40.

I want us to understand its significance in the formation of the early church as well as for us as believers today.

The story of Philip and the Ethiopian Eunuch is a remarkable account of: 
  1. God’s divine guidance and direction
  2. A hunger and thirst for understanding
  3. The transformative power of the Gospel 

Through this Divine encounter we will not only see the importance of God's guidance and direction in our lives. We will also see our role as believers in sharing the Gospel, and the inclusivity of God's Kingdom.
