Candid confessions from today’s Christian women… because we all struggle with something. It’s time we get candid about it. #CandidlyChristian
Tara wants to hear God say, “well done good and faithful servant” – but she realized a hardened heart made her more of a Modern Day Pharisee. This is her story. I recently wrote about the Modern-day Pharisee. I bared my soul as this is an area of my life in which I was struggling…
I am going to warn you, this post about modern-day Pharisees was not easy to write. It was not fun. It packed a pretty significant slap in the face. I got called out more times than I can count. I realized a lot about myself and my faith journey while researching and writing this post….
Reading the Bible shined a light on my self-centered behavior – get all the details in this post. We all know the story of Joseph, right? It’s a great story about rising above your circumstances, but it hit me a little different when I read it recently. I’ve always read Joseph’s story with the big…
Sometimes, life happens and answered prayers aren’t as solid as they seem… Here’s what I mean: Earlier this year I bought a new Bible. My everyday Bible was extremely worn, and I am getting older and needed a larger font. I did a ton of research and chose a Bible. When it arrived, I added…
This blog has been very hard for me to write. So here goes… you get me. Completely and utterly unscripted. I have been in a place of despair, just like you. I know what broken looks like. I know what brokenness feels like. Take a look at the world around us. Brokenness in every direction….
Originally, I was going to title this post, “How to Pray Bold Prayers,” not because I pray boldly, but because I thought it’s how we “should” pray. And we are called to be bold in our Christian walk, but lately God has been showing me that there is nothing wrong with simple prayers. Last year…
Wouldn’t life be so much better if we didn’t have tough times to go through? I think so. But can we learn from the tough times or are they just random things that annoy us and make life harder? I have wondered so many times, in the middle of my trials, why it was happening…
Frustrated doesn’t even begin to describe what I’m feeling right now. I’m so frustrated I don’t even know where to begin. And that’s the problem. I want to be mad and complain and maybe even cry a little. Life is hard. Someone dropped the ball and I’m the one suffering for it. Literally. I was…
It was ironic. I was writing a book about spending time at the feet of Jesus and I had failed to do just that. I couldn’t even remember the last time I spent time at the feet of Jesus when it wasn’t writing related. Sure, I picked up my Bible every day, but I didn’t…
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…
You’re a Christian but maybe you’re not and you’re reading this. It’s okay. It’s for you too. Prayer is one of the fundamental principles of your faith and of life. People pray. There are untold sermons, books and more about prayer and how to do it. But, what if your praying is just hard. What…
