As you all know, the #ATLdevo began back in September of 2014, and ran until about August 2015. Every single day, I made it a discipline to write what I was learning with Jesus, and posted it ONLINE, and not only that, but delivered every morning to the inboxes of 80+ people. NO PRESSURE! The … Continue reading DAILY DEVOS RETURN…

Emotional Abuse and Neglect
November 13th. It would have been my 7 year wedding anniversary this week, ya know, had it not been for the divorce. I chopped my hair off, my beautiful long, blond hair and I felt so free! Of course, I asked his opinion many times, and he approved. I wouldn't have cut my hair had my … Continue reading Emotional Abuse and Neglect
7 Lessons I’ve Learned from Ministry
You name the ministry, I've probably done it. Homeless. Door-to-door evangelism. Special needs kids. Teaching. Orphanage. Preaching. Healing. Prophecy. Manual labor. Cooking. Worship leading in languages I don't even speak. Mentoring. Writing. Sunday school. Women's ministry. Hiking mountains to go visit sick people and do church in their homes. Going into bars to befriend prostitutes. God's … Continue reading 7 Lessons I’ve Learned from Ministry
4 Dysfunctional Dating Personalities
I must admit that in the past I've done wrong all the things I'm about to call out. I was selfish, and I didn't know myself very well. I created parasitic relationships. I was insecure. I say "was" because along the way I learned a few things. You're here already, so have a seat. You'll … Continue reading 4 Dysfunctional Dating Personalities
A Valentine’s Love Story
If I told you I wasn't looking, you still wouldn't get it. I. Was. Not. Looking. I wasn't embittered, just a bit tired. My heart was tired. Not broken, surprisingly. The friend who I had just dated was so kind to be careful with it. He and I are still friends. It's just this wonderful … Continue reading A Valentine’s Love Story
Yolo, Dating, and Starting Over
I've blogged before about 5 dating tips. I've given you a blog about how a man should pursue a woman. I've talked about how I sorta believe there is a "one" out there. And here I find myself single at 27, not like that's a problem. You see, I am a scientist, through and through. … Continue reading Yolo, Dating, and Starting Over
Memory
Today I was supposed to get 3 things done, and I got none of them done. I ate about 60% of a truffle mousse cake from Kroger and I watched Netflix. I spent time reading Romans and being soothed by Steffany Gretzinger's angelic voice. I rocked in my hammock, and hung out with the new … Continue reading Memory
Cheers to Being Single
I rang in 2015 in Nashville, at a big fun party. It was a blast! I made friends for life, tried to acquire a wife prospect for my brother, and got invited into the dance circle by a Lil Wayne doppelgänger. I wore a tiara and at midnight I still had a boyfriend. Confetti rained … Continue reading Cheers to Being Single

Pray fiercely with faith. Men of God are not extinct. They're real. They're out there. You're not delusional. :: small … Continue reading The Pursuit Blog
On Baby Fever
My mind is a bit blown right now. I sometimes think that the things I desire are selfish, or that they reflect a lack, or a discontent heart. In my latest bout of baby fever, watching all the Asian babies in the airport, I felt that pang for children. Oh, the womb. Ready for this? … Continue reading On Baby Fever
