Church Life, Dive Deeper
Recently, Leif and I volunteered to serve and encourage pastors in New England. It’s an annual activity that we love. Pastors and their spouses are heroes! One particular story that took my breath away.
One of the pastors’ wives shared that she’d been opening her life to the power and work of the Holy Spirit. Asking God to use and lead her.
Bible Study, Church Life, Dive Deeper
Oh sweet friends,
One of my friends, J, called today to catch up and we talked about our writing and what were learning, and exchanged funny stories.

Only I hadn’t moved it.

Hey Friends!
I’ve been diving deep into study on Holy Spirit–especially in the Old Testament.

Perhaps today, you find yourself in the midst of the unknown. Waiting for that which is not yet. Waiting for decisions to be made outside your control. Waiting for clarity amid the fogginess in your physical body, finances, or future.
You know you won’t be where you are forever, yet you don’t know how long until things change.
The middle aches with unmet expectations, lingering disappointments, and a litter of chaos thrown in.
