I have always wanted to be a prayer warrior. I remember hearing stories of the power of prayer from missionaries that would come to our church growing up, or testimonies of women who prayed for their husbands and children incessantly until they came to know Jesus.

Celebrating an Untraditional Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day is approaching and, as a mom, you would think I’d be excited. Don’t judge me when I say, “I’m not”.

The Invisible Mom
“Does anyone see me?” The rise in social media is evidence that this question matters. So many of us want to feel noticed. We update our statuses, post pictures, and expose parts of our lives that a decade or so ago would have remained unknown, invisible, and unseen. I’m not against social media, but do…
My Favorite Moms of the Bible
