Deep Cleaning (Leviticus 14)
Why can't we just be good people? Why do we suck so bad all the time? I think Leviticus 14 has an answer.
On One Condition (Leviticus 9)
Summary: What's the last thing you asked God for? Did you get it? Did He answer your prayer? Or did it feel a little bit like He ignored your request? Maybe you asked for a job or a financial blessing. Maybe you asked for healing or for friendship. Maybe you even asked for victory over … Continue reading On One Condition (Leviticus 9)
The Money Secret They Don’t Want You To Know (Leviticus 7)
Summary: I remember going to my first Broadway show. It was Lion King, and it was fantastic. My best friend and I made it to the show just in time, running up the stairs past a glittery woman in an elephant costume and scooting past seatmates as the lights dimmed and the first song began. After … Continue reading The Money Secret They Don’t Want You To Know (Leviticus 7)
The Love In The Law (Leviticus 6)
Summary: What's a routine or habit or process that you get super anal about? Like you have to have things exactly this way or else you get kind of annoyed. I have this problem a lot.

Walk Of Shame (Leviticus 4)
Summary: They say the Internet makes people bold, but it can make a wimp out of you too.

This Is Just The Beginning (Exodus 40)
Summary: I remember when I graduated from high school. It was a great day. It was a sunny, hot Friday. Some of my family had flown in for the occasion. I had on a super cute pink dress. I felt happy and accomplished. But the peace and joy I felt that day had nothing on … Continue reading This Is Just The Beginning (Exodus 40)
Where Do You See Yourself In Twenty Years? (Exodus 39)
Summary: I kind of hate it when people ask that question. First of all, I have no idea. Second of all, why does it matter whether or not I can answer that question? After all, your answer is always judged. Have you set your sights too high or too low? Do you have purpose in … Continue reading Where Do You See Yourself In Twenty Years? (Exodus 39)
Clap For Me (Exodus 37)
Summary: Earlier last week an email showed up in my inbox. It pointed out a problem, a mistake, an issue and it gently suggested that I was the one to blame and thus, the one to find a solution. There was just one thing wrong - I was not to blame, not in the slightest. A fire … Continue reading Clap For Me (Exodus 37)
