Being authentic has been a life lesson for me. I grew up not being allowed to be who I was created to be. When I reached my 30’s and discovered I had several chronic illnesses I realized the importance of being authentically me with Jesus’ help. In...

In one of my last articles I wrote about What Are Ketones, what they are what their job is in our bodies. In this article I will tackle the subject of Ketoacidosis. Being a diabetic and deciding to do the Keto Eating Plan means I have to be keenly aware of where my...

When I picked up Kenny Luck’s book Dangerous Good I didn’t realize it was geared towards men and their identity in Jesus. Even though it is geared towards men and their relationship with Jesus I am still glad I read it. The reason why is so that I know how they...

Unity and community seems to be all over the news and the internet and in Lucas Ramirez and Mike Devito’s book Designed for More they write on this subject through the lens of Jesus. I love that they use as an example the murmuration of birds. I am in agreement...

Reading fiction allows me to live in a different world, to see things in a new way. Fiction doesn’t tell you what you need to do or how to fix it either. I read a lot of non-fiction books and devotions, so every once in awhile I like to dive into a novel and...
