Romans
-
When you’re disconnected from the body of Christ, you don’t really notice what you’re missing—until the day comes when you desperately need it. That’s why Christian community is so critical. Because one day, you’ll need it too.
-
“I’m spiritual, but not religious.” She said it casually. A throwaway line. But my heart sank. Because there’s no purpose in religion. No point in spirituality. The only point is Jesus.
-
Leviticus 14 reveals the deep pain of isolation, but Romans 15 reminds us of the hope we have in Christ. I know what it’s like to feel cut off from the world—alone in my suffering, wondering if anyone understands. But the love of Christ reaches us even there.

Today, ‘fire and flood’ weren’t just metaphors—they were my reality. A backyard inferno, a rising flood, and me, barefoot with a garden hose, trying to save the neighborhood.

Exhaustion, insurance battles, the weight of writing—none of it can separate me from the love of Christ. Romans 8 reminds me that in all these things, we are more than conquerors. Even in suffering, God is at…
