Seeing Life From the Highest Vantage Point
I’m pleased to introduce you to Deny Yourself, the second video in the True Beauty: Finding Your Identity in Jesus series published by David C. Cook. Just like the first video, Be Still (see my review HERE), Deny Yourself is an incredibly photographed film that visually captivates the viewer while gently revealing profound, life changing [...]
By Natalie, Editress of Visionary Womanhood When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. (I Corinthians 13:11) The following is “…a prose poem that [Jonathan] Edwards wrote to his then-future wife. In Sarah [...]

By Contributing Writer, Marci Ferrell “…or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;” 1 Corinthians 13:5 How does my Christian life measure against these characteristics of true love?

By Contributing Writer, Tyanne “If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.”- 1 Corinthians 13:3 As we continue in the “love chapter” of First Corinthians, we are jumping from virtues that are uniquely spiritual, such as speaking in tongues and [...]
Written by Natalie, Editress of Visionary Womanhood I’m excited about this month’s theme.

By Contributing Writer, Stephani New Year’s celebrations follow swiftly on the heels of Christmas. I enjoy looking back on a full year of memories and then looking ahead and planning for the next season of life.
