Responsibility Comes with Relationships!

I saw Wonder Woman for the third time this weekend. Was it the best movie I’ve ever seen? Nope. However, it has messages that speak loudly into my “today” and those messages keep me coming back for more. My take-away from my latest viewing? Retain your wonder. Looking into the […]

“People think you’re so sweet, but I know the truth.” When my ex said these words, I knew they weren’t true. But momentarily there was something resembling comfort in the idea that instead of being outright rejected by him, I just needed to “do better.” I preferred self-rejection. Unfortunately, a […]

In my childhood, I spun around in my room with dizzying speed attempting to turn into Wonder Woman. Or, at the very least, Drusilla, her younger sister. My attempts were fruitless, but I didn’t give up right away. So you can imagine my excitement when the time came to be […]

I have never seen an episode of This Is Us. Hey, don’t judge me! I can explain. I tend to avoid shows, videos, and movies where people say, “Get the tissue.” That’s almost a guarantee that I’m going to scroll on by. However, I’m conflicted about This Is Us because, […]

I love to sing, but I’m not a singer. Perhaps I make that distinction because I’m from Chicago and was exposed to excellent singing from a young age. I’ve designated myself a “choir” or “background” singer because for years, whenever I sang alone, I couldn’t be counted on to stay […]

Recently I spent nearly 35 hours traveling in a car over the course of 3 days. I generally don’t mind road trips, but this was more time in a car in a short time than I’d ever done. Oddly enough, despite fatigue and stiffness, the bulk of my frustration came […]

When’s the last time you gave yourself a little pat on the back and said: Good job? My most recent post encouraged you to press release on your gifts and accomplishments. That may seem strange if you don’t fully recognize your achievements as such. I used to be the same way […]

What’s holding up your press conference? Sure, a press conference is an interview to make a major announcement or answer questions about a recent or upcoming event. And typically, folks who hold press conferences are prominent. Well, have you forgotten? God told Abram, I will make your name great. Do […]

Time to Press RELEASE

I was honored to lead a women’s Bible study recently. The night before, I sat with all my notes and I could hear the whisper of Holy Spirit telling me where to chop and cut. Originally, I was thinking and writing from a place above the experience of what I […]

Look back…and Wonder

Remember playing “keep-away” back in the day? I know I’m dating myself, but surely I’m not alone! Maybe you were fortunate enough to be one of the “perpetrators,” keeping the prized item just out of reach. Or perhaps you were in the middle, racing back and forth, desperate to end the madness. […]
