    Proverbs 31: Characteristics of a Godly Woman

    This was probably expected at some point; after all, every woman looks to Proverbs 31 at various points in their life for guidance and to be reminded of the values God wants us to live out. What I like most about it is that it isn’t just about women but men too. I will agree…

    ‘None Like Him’ – Key notes from the book by Jen Wilkin

    I bet I can guess what you’re thinking; she must really like Jen Wilkin if this is the second book she’s blogged about, and you’re right. Well, based on the two books I’ve read, anyway. I still recommend you read In His Image, but None Like Him is good too. While In His Image is…

    ‘In His Image’ – Highlights of the book by Jen Wilkin

    I read this book a while back, and at the time, I felt compelled to take notes to help me focus on it because when it comes to non-fiction, I find it a lot harder to read. Fiction, however, I can devour in a day. By the time I finished the book, I had gathered…

    God’s Character: What it means for our lives.

    In a previous blog post, I mentioned some of God’s character. We know He is our Heavenly Father (Galatians 1:1) and Creator (Genesis 1:1) of us and our world, but who is He? I wanted to take the opportunity to go deeper into His character better understand our Creator. He is good. “No one is…

  • Down Memory Lane

    Down Memory Lane

    I found my childhood bible the other day from when I was in primary school. I don’t remember using it much, but I found some writing and a long-forgotten bookmark when I opened it. The bookmark I found in Philippians where I was either reading the end of chapter 2 or the beginning of chapter…

  • Why is is being faithful so difficult?

    Why is is being faithful so difficult?

    Starting, we have good intentions; we’ll be disciplined and attend church every week or spend time with God more than once daily. The reality, as with all things, is more challenging. You miss one daily devotional, and the next thing you know, it’s been a week, and your month-long streak is gone. This is a…

  • 6 Ways to Nurture a Strong Faith

    6 Ways to Nurture a Strong Faith

    We are human, mortal beings until death strips us of our Earthly bodies of flesh and we are transformed into perfect beings. As humans we strive for perfection, we try to be God but we never will be. As Christians we know this but we don’t always act like it. We fall, we fail, we…

  • Why is being faithful important?

    Why is being faithful important?

    Being faithful has much more meaning to me now than it ever has before. The more I study the bible and spend time with God it becomes much more important to me. Faith is a journey and I consider myself to only be at the start of it. Each day God gives me is the…

  • What does it mean to be faithful?

    What does it mean to be faithful?

    Faith has played an important role in my life and relationships yet I have not stopped to think about if I am actually being faithful. Honestly, I’m on autopilot most of the time not really thinking about what I’m doing (or saying) and the potential impacts it could have. Since becoming a Christian I just…
