Celebrate the Ordinary

Amena Brown March 29, 2018 essentials

I don’t like glitter and I’m not a fan of confetti. I’m not good at celebrating. I’m a doer, a survivor, a caretaker. I can help create a fantastic celebration for someone else, but won’t take that same energy and …

Small Actions Take Courage

Annie Rim March 16, 2018 essentials

Into the Small Places

Noël Miller February 3, 2017 home

The world tells us that what matters most is the grand, the visible, the powerful. But Jesus speaks of children, mustard seeds and yeast (an organism so small it’s invisible to the naked eye!). His language is not power and …
