There are many ways to connect with the Lord, get creative! God doesn’t care HOW you do it; He just desires you.
Did Jesus Really Exist?
That was one of my first questions I asked years ago. Did Jesus really exist? And can I find something outside the New Testament that proved Jesus did indeed exist?
Yes.
Sometimes you don’t want to read a 10 minute, highly intelligent, uses big words blog post to see if there are non-Christian sources out there that prove that Jesus really did exist in history. We just was a simple answer until we are ready to dive deeper.

At His Feet - Like Mary
I don’t always have complete blog posts and devotions on my writer’s fingertips but just little thoughts and notes. For example, I love reading about Mary, as in the Mary of the Martha and Mary sisters, and the sister of Lazarus. Mary challenges me greatly because she’s often the very opposite of what tend to be. When we read about her, she is often just taking in life around her. She observes, listens and expresses herself deeply. It’s as if life slows down around her and she truly feels.
Explanation for the I AM Statements
In the New Testament, we are introduced to John the disciple who is the author of the Gospel John. The Gospel of John is unlike the other three Gospels in the Bible, Matthew, Mark, and Luke. The Gospel John doesn’t give us a chronological order of Jesus' life or even share many of the teachings and miracles that the other Gospels use. He uses only events that help prove the holiness of Jesus, his deity. His book is centered around who Jesus is and to show readers that he is the son of God. He uses seven public signs (miracles) and seven metaphorical I AM statements that Jesus claims for Himself.
Explanation of Isaiah 41:10
Isaiah 41 is a message of comfort, reassurance and challenge for God’s people who have been exiled in Babylon. God speaks to Israel during a time of fear and uncertainty, reminding them that He is still in control, He has chose them, and they do not need to be afraid.
Best Marriage advice
We were on vacation and a great question was asked. What is the best marriage advice you’ve gotten? What a great “ice breaker” question! I had to really think on this and in a good way because we’ve been lucky enough to get some really great relationship advice.

When life is a little dry and mundance, when we need a little inner motivation, when we just need something to pull us out of this rutt… prayer this prayer and rest in His goodness.

Some of the deepest moments of my faith journey has been picking up a good read and letting the charcters inspire me. Christian Fiction or better yet Biblical fiction has a way of opening up our mind into what life MAY have been like back then.
