Candid confessions from today’s Christian women… because we all struggle with something. It’s time we get candid about it. #CandidlyChristian
My prayer life hasn’t been that stellar lately. Non-existent might be a better word for it. So today, I wanted to offer you some advice: Don’t stop praying… you know, like I did. My life has been pretty chaotic lately. From the passing of my grandmother, to the graduation of my son, it seems like…
I wanted to take a moment today to boast in my weakness. Okay, that’s a lie. I really didn’t want to take a moment today to boast in my weakness. Candidly Christian is all about sharing our struggles in a way that points to Jesus. It’s literally about boasting in our weaknesses because when we…
