You Are Enough

What do I need to do to make a 100—or closer to perfect—score on the next exam? Do I need to wake up earlier? Go to bed later? Withdraw from my other classes to solely focus on history? How much studying will be enough?

The 3 Greatest Fears of Introverts

Introverts are often stereotyped as people who are unable to carry on a conversation, unable to have fun at parties, and unable to spend more than a few minutes at a time with people. As an introvert, I feel like those are pretty big assumptions (that definitely aren't always true). But I'm also willing to admit that introverts do have a lot of fears related to social situations—including these three fears.

How to Deal with Negative Emotions

I felt completely helpless to change my circumstances, but I also felt so far from God. I struggled to appropriately deal with the negative emotions that I felt—probably because I craved constant happiness and believed that I was entitled to it. I couldn't see a way out of the downward spiral that my life had become.

Is Your Phone More Important to You Than People?

We're quick to pull out our phones to check notifications, send messages, and scroll through social media. But are we quick to listen to other people when they speak up? Are we quick to reach out to people who are typically ignored by everyone else? Are we quick to build others up with our words and actions? Sadly, we're not.

Sermons of Ourselves

The focus of this poem is pride—a sin that is addressed many times in Scripture yet is often treated lightly by Christians. Sadly, many Christians focus more on building their platforms and being in the spotlight than on glorifying God. But that's not what we're called to do, friends. We're called to humble ourselves and point people to Christ alone.

Movie Review: The Case for Christ

Overall, the movie used believable actors and actresses. The story was fairly interesting. Though it wasn't as dramatic as some Christian movies, like Courageous, the general story and theme were compelling; and much of the information Lee Strobel discovered was new to me and may be new to you as well.

Wishing Our Woes Away

His grace is enough. His power lives in us when we boast of our weaknesses. We can be satisfied living with struggles because He makes us strong when we are weak. Knowing this won’t make your troubles go away. It won’t make the stress of a math test or an irritating co-worker vanish into thin air. It won’t remove the pain from a health problem or from losing a loved one. But without this truth, we are hopeless.
