My summer, like so many of yours, is about to officially begin, so I’ve tried to be intentional and prayerful this past week to prepare my heart, soul, strength, and mind for this coming season. I know the Lord has purpose in all things, and a summer with my family and friends is no exception.Continue reading “Savor the Summer”

Did you know May is Mental Health Month? I think we can all agree mental health plays a huge role in overall wellness. This past Saturday, I had the opportunity to lead an outdoor barre class as part of a Workout & Wellness event. Being outside with other women is good for the soul andContinue reading “Healthy State of Mind”

Happy May, Friends!  Just wanted to give a heads up to something new!  Beginning June 1, we plan to provide what I’d like to call ‘Celebrate & Support Holy Barre.’  We’ll recap the month prior and share what’s coming up in the weeks ahead.  In addition, we’ll request a monthly donation of $20 to supportContinue reading “Celebrate & Support”

Over the past several days, the Lord has been drawing my attention to my posture. Whether it’s through a Facebook post saying, ‘Grace in a posture’, this statement from our YouVersion Reading plan, ‘Progressively over a number of decades, they’d refused a posture of surrender toward His divine care and guidance’, or even the hopeContinue reading “How’s Your Posture?”

I was having a conversation with my kids about humility and pride. So when reflecting on Good Friday, we discussed what group actually crucified Christ?  It still hurts my heart to acknowledge it was the religious – the arrogant, know-it-alls – who actually accomplished the act.

While all ofContinue reading “Easter”

The love of God turns our culture’s definition of love upside down. It’s not your typical self-focused, action-dependent, convenient, performance-based kind of love. It’s a sacrificial love, a first-is-last and last-is-first love, a serving love, a pursuing love, an unconditional love. It’s love that burns bright for you, yet independent of you and your actions.Continue reading “God’s Love Story – Part 3”

As we near Easter in just four weeks, I’d love to use this time to focus on His love and His love story! This is something the Lord has been graciously sharing with me over the past several weeks through various things like the series The Chosen, the Book of John and a study onContinue reading “God’s Love Story – Part 1”
