I could not stop crying as I was facing the role of an empty nester. Earlier that day, our oldest son boarded a plane to Texas for his second semester of classes at Baylor University. Because of the pandemic, his semester break had been extended an additional two weeks. As a family, we celebrated the…
We did it! For those of us with students, the end of the school year is upon us. However, our students need to make it through final exams and projects before the joys of summer can begin. This is a stressful time for both students and teachers. Thankfully, when we come to the Lord stressed,…
Most of us are familiar with the term JOY – Jesus, Others, You. In our Christian circles, we refer to this as putting Jesus first, then others, then ourselves. It’s a simple word that is relatively hard to follow through doing. Most of us, myself included, tend to put ourselves and others before Jesus. This…
At the end of July, social media was in an uproar over schools across the country reopening. People who were so supportive of teachers when schools unexpectedly closed were now judging them for wanting to get back into the classroom. The judgment continued on to the parents for wanting to send their children back to…
Every school day, I have watched my children head into school. Whether it was dropping them off at the front door, or watching them from the front porch as they drove away in their vehicles, I have never missed seeing Grant and Connor leave for school. College was no exception. One Week Ago Last Tuesday,…
One week. Just one week until we move our son into his dorm at Baylor University. Waco is a 14-hour drive or 2 1/2- 3 hours by flight (depending on where you fly into.) I will never forget the conversation that our son and I had when we were touring the campus during Spring Break…
“Did you get a chance to read the email for school today?” I asked my husband during our nightly walk. “Which school?” Craig replied. And the tears began to well up in my eyes. The Little Things that Make Me Cry Yesterday, we received emails from both the high school and the university where our…
Three weeks from today, the dynamics in our house will change. There will be a seat empty at the kitchen table. There will be only one child to get out the door for school. The house will be a little quieter without that infectious laugh that I have heard throughout the years. And if I…
Five Ways to Quiet Your Heart No one cried out of frustration. No one whined because they didn’t get to what they wanted to do. No one argued with one another. No one asked the dreaded question, “Are we there yet?” No one got mad at her family because they were getting on her last…
Letting Go, Learning to Fly and Loving Unconditionally Letting Go I am now the proud parent of a high school graduate. Originally scheduled for May 17th, my son was finally able to switch the tassel from right to left this past Sunday. Thanks to COVID, instead of sitting in an air-conditioned church sanctuary, we sat…

Forgiveness costs us something.�But holding onto unforgiveness costs us even more.
Forgiveness isn’t quick.�It isn’t neat.�And it certainly isn’t a formula.
It’s a slow, sacred journey—sometimes three steps forward, two steps back—where God meets us in the pain and leads us toward freedom.
If forgiveness has felt heavy or unfinished, you’re not doing it wrong.�You’re walking it honestly.

“Failure isn’t final. Forgiveness is.” — Micah E. Davis
This week on Bold Faith Now, we’re talking about the kind of forgiveness that costs us something—yet sets us free.
Micah E. Davis joins me to share his deeply personal story and explains:
* why forgiveness feels so unfair
* how Jesus restored Peter after his greatest failure
* why forgiving yourself matters more than you think
Friend, if forgiveness has felt impossible, you are not alone.
Jesus meets us right in the middle of the pain and begins the work of redemption.

One of the most overlooked signs of spiritual abuse is the twisting of Scripture.
When leaders reshape the Bible to fit their own agenda, it can leave people believing:
�👉 If I do everything right, God will bless me.�
👉 If He doesn’t, it must be my fault.
But that’s not the Gospel.
In this week’s episode of Bold Faith Now, Anna exposes how a prosperity-based, performance-driven faith can wound people deeply—and why God is not the one who failed you.
If you’ve ever wondered, “Why did God let this happen if I did everything right?”�This conversation matters.

When church hurts, it can shake everything you believe.
This week on Bold Faith Now, I’m talking with Anna Vaughn, author of “Caught in the Crossfire,” about spiritual abuse—what it is, how it hides behind “ministry,” and how God meets us in the aftermath.
We talk about:
* Red-flag warning signs in churches and ministries
* How abuse twists Scripture and controls people through fear
* The slow, beautiful work of healing, forgiveness, and freedom in Christ
If you’ve ever wondered, “Is what I’m experiencing normal?” or “Does God see what happened to me?”—this episode is for you.

You can’t resist what you don’t recognize.
When the enemy stays hidden, we stay confused.�But when God opens our eyes, courage rises.

This is how we fight.�This is how we stand firm.�This is Bold Faith.
