As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you." "We've all been there. We hit a moment when we doubted if God was there.

Take Care of One Another
Join me Alison Elizabeth as we read Luke 10:30-35 which is the story of the Good Samaritan. "Today I wanted to continue the thought love must be sincere. But I wanted us to read one of my favorite teachings from Jesus himself. In life, it's easy to become numb to the pain our brothers and sisters experience every day. Let's once again blame this on the self-serving society we live in, but I think this parable and his teachings can still be applicable today. I love how He gives us three differ...

"...Here I am just a few days later in the middle of the summer in Miami FL with broken AC. This is the result of technicians putting a series of bandaids over a serious problem, costing more money in the long run rather than replacing the system in the home. This is a real life reminder that sometimes the systems we have in plac...

Beauty From Within
Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we dive into 1 Peter 3:3-4 and look to our inner selves for a reference of beauty. What does God truly find beautiful? "The problem is, social media has gotten us in the habit of looking better for our photos than for the occasion itself. This culture has bred an environment of comparison. We look at other people's “after” photos from their weight loss journey and we forget there are an extremely hard journey for that person to get there. We have to stop this compar...

Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we read through 2 Corinthians 12:9 and we lean on God when we have had a long week or are in the middle of a tough season. "But how many of us know that is the worst thing we can do for our cars. Running low on gas is not a good quality, it effects the life of the car. One time? No big deal, but prolonged neglect of putting gas in your car can cost you a lot of money in repairs down the line. The same thing happens to us. When we run on empty, we stop praying, we s...

Thankful for Good Things
Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we read out of Psalm 34:10 and look to scripture to fill us with the validation we all so desire. "The same thing happens to me when I eat a bag of chips. Somehow my body can fit 50 chips yet I am still hungry once I hit the bottom of the bag. Why? Well because although I am eating I lack nutrition. The same thing happens to our spirit when we go looking for validation on social media. We are filled with love but still running on empty. No substance in this world...

What Is A Legacy?
Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we turn to the bible to talk about Legacy. What is a legacy? How do we leave behind a legacy? "The greatest legacy of all time is the story of Jesus Christ.

He walked this planet over 2,000 years ago yet every single day someone new encounters him and his story in a new way. There are obviously other legacies, different families that have made good (and even bad) im...
