Maybe you’re the girl constantly praying for people, real people, to come into your life. People who love Jesus, who will live life with you, who will see you and call you higher. You’re not asking for much. You’re just asking for community, for your people. And yet somehow, even with all the asking, you’re […]

“You’re not qualified.”  That was the first thought that flooded my mind when I was asked to write this blog post. I had to pause, take a deep breath, and reflect.

Growing up, I was always the tiny friend. My nickname was literally flaca. I never thought much of it, especially as a kid. But looking back, it left a mark deeper than I ever realized. Being “the small one” became part of how I saw myself — part of how I believed I should be. It quietly followed […]

I’ve had a relationship with the Lord for 22 of my 27 years, and as I’ve grown older and deepened that relationship, I’ve come to realize that one of the biggest challenges in the Christian journey is application.

I’ve always been a huge dreamer. From a very early age I’ve known what I’ve wanted my life tolook like and who I wanted to be when I grew up. I love planning my future and thinking of all theamazing things I’ll get to do with God. I have huge goals with a ton of […]

One night when I was in seventh grade, I was hanging out with my friends and I was called “the DUFF” (designated ugly fat-friend).  I remember exactly where I was when this happened.
