Sneaky Funk
It puts a wedge between you and God. It takes your thoughts from trusting in what God is and who He is to what you are and who you are. It traps you in a run around self focused tail chase that condemns you as you try and figure it out.
Let’s Get Real
Our walk with the Lord is suppose to provide us with freedom. What does that freedom look like? It looks different than what we think.

The Answer to Insecurity
Good morning! It has been a while since I have written. I am sorry and will not take that much time without warning again. I have just single handedly figured it all out!
