[et_pb_section admin_label=”section”] [et_pb_row admin_label=”row”] [et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text”] Anyone who knows me knows that my dreams came true last weekend—the most amazing man I have ever known asked me to marry him! Of course, I said yes, but the real reason I wrote this blog post is because it took a really long road for me… Continue reading How I Found “The One”
“You HAVE to obey the government!” “You can’t say anything negative about the president!” “If you rise up against rulers, you are sinning because God chose them to be our leader!” These are just a few quotes I have heard from friends and folks I know in church and online. And a confused, messy train… Continue reading The Christian and Protesting
I remember when the enneagram started gaining media attention a few years ago. Being an avid lover of personality tests and psychology, I excitedly took the test. A seven! I thought. How exciting. This is SO true! I texted one of my best friends, Joel, and told him all about this great new tool and… Continue reading The Enneagram Exposed
Mental health has been a topic that has been circulating around culture and around the church a lot in 2019. As a girl, I struggled with an eating disorder. I had anorexia for about a year. I weighed around 95 pounds, and hardly ate anything. I remember feeling ugly, worthless, and trapped inside a body… Continue reading The Christian, Mental Illness, and The Cure.
I know, It’s bizarre. This title is probably the last thing you would expect from me. But lately more and more “faith” inspired posts have been popping up on my timeline.

Today I read an article called ‘I’m A Christian Girl And I’m Not A Feminist, Because God Did Not Intend For Women To Be Equals.’ I’m going to be honest with you. It made me upset. I don’t think the girl who wrote it meant any harm. She was expressing her opinion and her own… Continue reading Gender & The Bible
Rest in the goodness of God. Rest in the fact that He is LOVE and will never hurt you, keep your dreams from you, or control you. Don’t let any fear bully you or keep you from the wild, crazy, God-dreams of your heart.
I fell in love once. It was a time of raging teenage hormones and an unrealistic view of love due to my Taylor Swift obsession. It was the ultimate pining-for-your-bestfriend-80’s film-love that would ensure disaster on my naïve heart. Looking back now, it was like a John Hughes movie on repeat—but every time you thought… Continue reading What I Learned About Being a Whole When I Was a Half
Most mornings, I don’t wake up feeling like I can take on the world. After snoozing my alarm for a good half hour, I eventually trudge to the bathroom, and flip on the lights to see the damage I’m working with. The sticking up hair, the dark circles—yeah, its rough. I don’t wake up feeling… Continue reading You Are Chosen
I’m tired. I’m tired of the Facebook wars, being forced to pick sides, and biased media. I’m tired of seeing confederate flags and people talking about minorities like we are an infestation. I’m tired of propaganda and people slapping Jesus or rhetoric on top of their politics in order to justify one side and demonize… Continue reading That Time I Got Political
