Because She Believed - A Story of Faith and Hope

On Easter Sunday 2016, God broke my heart when He answered my prayer. My prayer to God had been, “Please God, show me your heart!” His answer broke my heart and inspired my soul. He answered my prayer with a vision of my oldest daughter that challenged my faith. Over the next two months, God and I wrestled over His answer. In the end, I committed my daughter to His care and watched the testimony of her faith spread to thousands across the world.

"SPEAK!" Life, Hope, Truth, Love, Faith...

1. “SPEAK” – 5 Part Series

The series reflects on five poems; Life, Hope, Truth, Love, Faith. Each part takes one word and asks: what does it mean to speak it when Jesus is more than a Savior when He is the Life, the Hope, the Truth we speak?

Speak Life – Kristen’s John 11:25-26 tweet as a spoken confession: “Do you believe this?” (Elijah’s Corner)
Speak Hope – hope beyond circumstances and peace within them
Speak Truth – “complacency is a poison, taken one drop at a time”
Speak Love – “we must not be silent thru doubt or thru fear”
Speak Faith – “it is our faith that speaks” in the valle ↓
