3:265 – God’s Law or Man’s Law? #faithbites #faithjourney law Setting My heart hurts as an American Christian. I know what the bible says and I know that our laws don’t match.

3:261 – I Don’t Understand #faithbites #faithjourney understand There are many things in life I don’t understand. For instance, I was facilitating a case on women’s health for work.

3:232 – Every New Beginning #faithbites #faithjourney new Setting As we left our first-grade orientation, my youngest told me again that she was nervous. We talked about it and while she was excited, she was nervous as to what to expect. There wouldn’t be any more rest time, more homework, and more change. A new beginning. At work, we are […]
3:222 – I Don’t Have Control #faithbites #faithjourney control Setting “Are the kids going to school online or in-person?” “What is going on with my job?” “What is going on with this virus?” “I don’t know who to believe.” Have you said any of these things?
