Joshua’s Faithful Response
Today I want to share with you the day’s entry for my daily devotional, Drawing Near to God. I love when you follow the devotional along with me. In fact, my family members and I are doing my daily devotional together this year and discussing it via text message – it’s been really fun! You […]
One Spirit
Today I want to talk about unity. Unity has been on my heart for a long time now – unity for our nation, families, churches and communities, and unity with Christ. In fact, Unity: Bringing Hearts Together is the theme for our upcoming Drawing Near to God Conference next week, April 13-14 at Ashley River […]
Worn Out?
Today in my Making Space for God blog, I want to discuss an epidemic that I see in Christian circles– being worn out. I can easily recognize the symptoms. When asked how you are doing the response is, “I am busy!” Or perhaps I see the same glazed over look in their eyes as I […]
Taking Back the Ground
Good morning Making Space for God friends! Recently someone prayed for me to take back the land. Honestly I did not know why she prayed that, but upon reflecting, I knew it was the Lord. I thought about all the prayers I had been praying for years and more specifically how I was praying. My […]
Righteousness
Today in our study of Ephesians, we looked at Righteousness. The Scriptures for today’s lesson is Ephesians 5:5-21. These verses show that we are called be righteous, imitators of God.

Part of me thought that was just wishful thinking. But I committed this to prayer seeking God’s will for my life […]

Here are 3 characteristics of this new society: Character that reflects Christ Unity that reflects the unity between Father, […]
Come Out of Hiding
Good morning, Making Space for God friends. I always enjoy our time together on Making Space Mondays, unpacking topics that impact our spiritual growth. Recently I have been working on preparing notes for a retreat entitled, “Come Out of Hiding,” and as the Lord often does, I sensed the Holy Spirit working in me, exposing […]
Who Am I?
Happy Monday and thanks for joining our band of Making Space for God friends. I told someone yesterday that we need to do this together. Paul describes in his letter to the Ephesians, that we are a community bound together in our love for Jesus. We are on this spiritual journey of deepening our faith […]
Come Just As You Are
Good morning, Making Space for God friends! Last week as I was preparing to meet some friends for dinner, I looked in the mirror and thought, “Boy, do I look terrible.” I even entertained the idea of not going because facing the redo that was needed was daunting. It was the end of the day […]
