3:313 – Choose To Work Together #faithbites #faithjourney choose Setting If you know me, you know I’m an extrovert. I like people, I want to help people, and I want to see what we can do together. We are stronger together than apart. Last night, the presumed President-Elect, stated something to the effect of if we can choose to be […]
3:280 – I’m Not Going Back To School #faithbites #faithjourney school Setting My youngest is having a rough night, tonight. She hates school, homework, and told me she is never going back to school.

3:253 – I’m The Worst Person in The World Setting Last night my youngest was upset, and for the second time in as many nights, said she was the worst person in the world.

3:240 – You’re Not Perfect. Neither Am I. #faithbites #faithjourney perfect Yesterday, I was facilitating a class on women’s health and we were discussing LGBTQ issues along with women’s anatomy.

3:236 – Helping the Oppressed Doesn’t Take Away From You #faithbites #faithjourney oppressed Sometimes the Sunday sermon is ho-hum. It’s a lesson we have heard before but need to hear again.
