Personal Reflections

One of the most liberating lessons I have learned in life is that boundaries are not only healthy, they are biblical. For a long time, many of us were taught, directly or indirectly, that being a good person meant always being available, always saying yes, always understanding, always accommodating, and always enduring. We were taught […]

There are three words that have been weaponized in this generation more than almost any others. Three words spoken in dramatic tones, repeated with dangerous certainty, and used to silence questions, control minds, and manipulate vulnerable people. “God says.” I want to tread carefully here because I am not writing as an unbeliever mocking the
