A Life Changing Encounter
A Life Changing Encounter Rich and I enjoyed our 7th anniversary on the beautiful island of Kho Phi Phi in Thailand. We had just finished a week of ministry in Manila, Philippines, and we were both excited to take a break and just forget about our responsibilities for a few days. Thailand was HOT. And […]
PUMP THE BRAKES! The Importance of Slowing Life Down

Manila, Philippines, to Bangkok, Thailand, to Kho Phi Phi, Thailand, to Bangkok, to Manila, and finally back to the US. It was one of my favorite trips.

2024… God, Your Plan or MINE?
I cannot believe it is 2024, the beginning of a new year. I am thankful for a new year. It is a time to reset. Refocus. Turn the page. Start a new chapter. Can you imagine what life would be like if we never had a time to go to sleep, wake up, and start […]
Let’s See The REAL You.
When I started as a Christian in my early 20s, I was blessed enough to find myself with a role model, a leader in the church, to take me under her wing and teach me the ways of the Jedi. She was a rockstar. She was wise, she led so many women, and always seemed […]
Two Dangerous Words: I CAN’T
Last week I talked about being a mood manipulator, wanting to control and manipulate others with our behavior. This topic is right down that same alley, like two doors down.

Growing up, I was posed with the question deep inside myself: Who Am I? Honestly, I didn’t even know what that meant. It was too big of a question to wrap my head around. I felt like a lost little girl bouncing off others’ lives, never landing anywhere solid. I didn’t know how to “find […]
Willing to Be Disturbed: “But My Family!” Part 2
What?? Did I hear you right?? So, you want me to go to Indonesia with you for THREE MONTHS?! Uh no. I am a mom. And I don’t care that my boys are 17 & 19…. They STILL NEED ME. So, you can take that idea and throw it in the trash! My response to […]
Are You Willing To Be Disturbed? – Part 1
“Are you willing to be disturbed?” A question Ps Paulus Wiratno, from Indonesia, asked all of us sitting in our 2023 Mission Conference at Destiny Church. That question bothered me. It convicted me. And, unfortunately for me, it hasn’t gone away😜. Or maybe, fortunately for me…🙏 Obviously, he was talking about being available for Jesus […]
The Dangers Of Romanticizing Life
If you have ever taken a gander at the book of Song of Solomon, you are either totally lost and confused… or you’re feeling a little flushed and embarrassed at some of those hot and heavy scenes. The romance in that book is TOP NOTCH. Poetic, romantic, and beautiful, and talk about the sexual tension between two […]
How to Break Free of the Monotony of Everyday Life and Live with Purpose!
I was recently asked by one of my Go Girl readers to write this topic, and as I studied to prepare, I realized this topic would probably resonate with many of us. The Topic? Being stuck in the depressing monotony of everyday LIFE. I have been there. I have felt so hopeless, bored, and down in the […]
