I don’t know about you guys, but I find it easier to eat healthier in the summer than I do in the winter. So many people say they feel like the summer is harder for them. Y’all, I am a pure sucker for comfort food. As soon as that fall crisp air hits, I immediately
The mission of the church is making disciples. Doing so is accomplished through baptism and through teaching believers to obey everything Jesus commanded. Sounds simple, right? Well, it is — and it isn’t. Let me explain. If disciple-making was strictly an academic pursuit, we could package it as a curriculum of books and classes and
It shouldn’t be surprising that athletic gear is becoming more prevalent in day-to-day dressing. I think any year with a summer Olympics sees an uptick in sporty apparel. This summer, with in-person learning on the horizon, folks going back to their offices, and all of us realizing we put on some pandemic pounds, sports gear

It’s Christmas in July, and with it comes visions of perfectly trimmed trees, fragrant gingerbread houses, and Christmas revelers straight from the pages of Vogue or GQ magazine. Dashing looks, snowy white teeth, and absolutely perfect hair can only indicate one thing: It’s time for a sugary sweet helping of Hallmark Christmas movies. Unless your
I really have come a long way on this topic. From a girl who hated breakfast and never took the time to eat in the morning to now rolling out of bed and ready for breakfast. Well, let me back up a bit. At night when I go to bed, I think about what I
Have you ever had a good pair of leather shoes? Have you ever gone a few months (or years) without conditioning or polishing them as you continue to wear them every day? How did they look? Well, consider your skin like leather. If skin is not taken care of over time, cracks, deep crevices, and
