Everyone's An Expert Now (Charlie Kirk)

It’s fascinating to me how many people didn’t even know who Charlie Kirk was before he was shot and suddenly now they just know everything there is to know about him and are on a crusade to demonize him? Huh…. 🤔

Stronger Than You Think

  They didn’t see the strength it took To stand when every hilltop shook. They didn’t see the hidden fight, The weary prayers I breathed at night. They measured me by shallow things, By broken clocks and broken wings. They said I’d fall, they said I’d fail — But God said that we would prevail. They didn’t see the seeds I sowed, The quiet faith that only grows When watered not by pride or cheer, But by a love that fights through fear. They saw the cracks — but not the core, The heart that chose to try once more. They saw the wounds — but not the flame That carried hope in Jesus’ name. So let them doubt, and let them flee — Their words have never anchored me. For I am held by hands unseen, And grace will fill the in-between. Their disbelief won’t be my end — My strength comes not from them, but Him. And when the time of harvest nears, God will redeem these hidden years.

Toxic People

I think Christians in particular have a very hard time knowing how to deal with toxic people (especially if it's family). I know for myself, I often think of that verse that says to "turn the other cheek" and assume that means I just need to grin and bear it.  Something I've noticed, though, while reading the gospels recently, is that Jesus didn't just let people run their mouths at Him. If someone was trying to manipulate him, He'd answer their question with a question of His own. He'd walk away or even simply stay silent. He kinda let the air out of their tanks (thanks, Lego Movie) and stopped them in their tracks by making them think.  It's worth noting that He wouldn't get into long, drawn-out, heated debates with people, but He wasn't afraid to speak the truth in love either. His identity wasn't found in forcing someone to believe or even understand Him (how I wish more people understood this).  I struggle with this greatly. I feel lik...

I Will Not Be Silent

There is a long, bitter history of silencing women when their truth threatens a man’s reputation... For centuries, when women spoke up about harassment, abuse, or violations of their safety, they were met with disbelief, shame, or accusations of being dramatic, bitter, or unstable. Their words were questioned, their motives dissected, their credibility torn apart… all to preserve the comfort, status, or image of the man involved. This isn’t new. This is generational. It is woven into cultures, institutions, and families. - Women were told to be quiet “for their own protection.” -Victims were married to their rapists to protect the family name. - Girls were blamed for “leading him on” instead of boys being taught to honor consent. - Mothers were told not to speak up, for fear their sons would be ruined… not because they were innocent, but because they were male. - Victims in churches were labeled temptresses while their abusers were “restored.” And it still happens today… just in more p...
