As a teacher, my summers are sacred. They allow me to rest, reflect and recharge for the next season. However, my past two summers have been devoted to writing, editing and publishing my first book. This year, I felt that I was to use these warm months for a little “soul” school. Our soul consists […]
To be honest, this winter season has left me feeling quite disappointed and down. As I took an honest inventory of my life in this new year, I began to feel like such a failure at so many things in my life. I even cried as I wrote a list in my journal of all […]
Did you know that God not only wants you to survive this winter – but to thrive and abide this season?

When I was kindly given two tomato plants last spring by a co-worker, I decided to have a go and try to grow tomatoes. Now, I’m a city girl. I don’t like dirt, sweat, animals, or being in the middle of nowhere. As such, I live in a condo with my husband. Since we don’t […]
I’m so excited about my book being released in the coming weeks! I believe it will be life-changing for many people. Consequently I’ve noticed an increase in the amount of spiritual attacks lately.
