Another blog post I read earlier this week talked about all the times the word or the concept of… Continue reading He’s in the waiting…

A story of scars…a story of joy
We sat gathered around in a small room in her house. Worship and teaching were happening in the next room over. We couldn't all fit and so those of us who weren't teaching let other have our place. The church leader joined us and instead of sharing our testimonies, we had the honor of hearing… Continue reading A story of scars…a story of joy

In no particular order here are a few that collectively seem to summarize the last month in Bekah’s world: “Why would He allow us to love people… Continue reading Random Wisdom – Recapping October
On Being ‘Needy’
Needy. It's an interesting word... One with not the most positive of connotations in our culture. No one ever wants to be "the needy girlfriend" or "the needy child."

A “State of the Soul” Address
"How's your soul doing?" I feel that this is the question that God has been asking me over and over again in all different ways over the last month or two. The question has appeared in the form of conversations with friends, moments of connecting with Him in worship, podcasts and sermons, conferences and worship… Continue reading A “State of the Soul” Address
