Over the past 7 months of study, I have experienced a transformation from focusing and meditating on just one verse, rather than just reading Scripture to check a box. Is it important to read as…
It’s a trending word right now. We see it everywhere we go. Gratitude. Be grateful. I thought for so long that this was naturally innate. Although I would preach it to many of my students and of course to my son, I realized that this is a skill like any other. It takes work. It…
