God’s Great & Glorious Plan
Be encouraged! You are apart of His plan here on earth- a great and glorious plan! There is no time to waste. Let’s seize the opportunity to step up, link up with the Holy Spirit, and fill the assignment God has placed before each of us.
Pockets of Grace
There are pockets of grace that pop up at exactly the time when we have run out of options. We have run out of places or people to turn to. Every other option we had is now extinct. Now we find our real and raw hope is in God, Him alone.
The Ultimate, Outlasting Love of God

Want to Flourish? Start to Nourish

He will complete us body, mind, Spirit. He will accomplish His plans for our lives.
