How do I want to start this book review? It’s been a while since I’ve written one. This book was gifted to me by the wife of the author. We went to ministry school together. Now I’m working through my issues with men telling women how to be women or what’s expected of women from […]

Victory Isn’t Always in the Escape
This was a word of encouragement I shared with a ladies’ prayer group. [It has been edited for this blog post.] Scripture Reference Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors and gain an overwhelming victory through Him who loved us [so much that He died for us]. Romans 8:37 AMP translation Don’t […]
The Unlikely Victor
I’m going to use the story of a little unknown woman in the Old Testament to illustrate how we can allow God to use an unlikely victor to transform our lives only if we just obey His Word. Read about Jael in Judges 4:17-24. You are what you worship. If we’re being honest a lot […]
Endure Because You Have an Assignment to Fulfill
This is a word of encouragement I shared with a ladies’ prayer group on dealing with spiritual warfare while fulfilling the assignment God has given you. [Edited for this blog post.] My scripture reference: Matthew 10:22, Mark 13:13, Luke 21:17,19, John 15:18,19 CSB 22 You will be hated by everyone because of my name. But […]

The resources listed below aren’t specifically just for mental health but also for the causes of mental health. If you need […]
The Atrophy of Shame {Video}
This was the sermon I preached during our preaching practicum in ministry school. We were given 8 minutes to preach a scripture(s) given to us. We had no idea when we would be called so we had to be ready to preach at any time. Y’all we had to prepare 6 sermons in 3 weeks. […]
Hello 39!!! Be Gentle With Me
I can’t believe I have one more year of being a “youth”. Anyone under the age of 40 is considered a “youth” so I’m still young over here. What can I honestly say about turning 39? Not much yet. I can say that I still get asked if I’m in my mid to late 20s. […]
Married To The Lies {Video}
In 2021 I started a sermon series on Fellowship for something I believed God told me to do. Well, what I thought I was to do is no longer a thing (more on that here), I still kept the content though. And that’s what you’ve been seeing and will see the previous and next few […]
Surviving Ministry School: Graduation
Well it officially happened y’all. I have graduated from ministry school. I have the certificate to prove it too. If you read my previous posts (click here or here), then you know a little about the journey for the first year. The second year was a beast and not just in the classroom but everything […]
