Join me for a two-month mentoring journey. We will walk through the online Kingdom parenting JOURNEY course together over two months, slowing things down a bit and going deeper together. This mentorship is for those who have already taken the course and want to go deeper AND for those taking
I shared about a movie sexualizing children. I could not shake this feeling that came over me. It was slimy. I felt nervous and like I was in big trouble, but it wasn’t me. It was the spirit I was encountering. We do not fight actors, Netflix, predators, etc. We
When the kids were younger and had babysitters I would tell her if she unsure about something just ask the kids, “What would your mom say/do about that?” Instead of the children feeling like they could get away with whatever the sitter allowed it made them stop and think about
I used to have this cycle happen where events would communicate to me that I didn’t belong. I would work it out sometimes rather fast but nonetheless, it took my time and energy. Cycles can be exhausting and wear you out. I began to see this as unfruitful and pressed
Gather the family in the family room and have the children read 2 Timothy 2:1-7. The more you allow them to participate in things like reading the more engaged they will be in the lesson. On a piece of paper or whiteboard write out the different attributes of the soldier,
During the recent quarantine season, we got addicted to a fireman show. Over and over, these brave men and women would run into the crisis while everyone else is running away full of panic and fear. This concept in the spiritual realm has so struck me. If Jesus lives inside
Jesus says in Mark 12:30-31 – Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these. FILLED HEARTS Call a
How many of you could say that you are feeling: Overwhelmed Like you are sinking Paralyzed In survival mode Panic rising at times All alone Tail Between Your Legs – If you say that you have your tail between your legs, you are emphasizing that you feel defeated and ashamed.
NOT ON MY WATCH! Rejection means to dismiss. Dismiss means to push or send away. A spirit of rejection is at play against this generation like never before through abortion, sexual exploitation, and gender identity. But there is a subtle form of this same spirit in operation in many homes,
Serve the children banana or apple slices and then leave some out on the counter for a few hours. Gather the children in the family room and have them bring their journal and Bible. Ask them to read to themselves Galatians 5:22-23 outlining the Fruit of the Spirit. See if
A mom in our parenting class shared this powerful testimony, but she isn’t the only one who has experienced this as I hear it often. As she drove home from class the previous week, the tears began to fall, she started to worship, and then laugh, and then cry harder.
The Cross is the answer to EVERYTHING! One would never go before a Judge and ask for leniency, favor, or judgments against an offending party if they had $1,000 of unpaid parking tickets. You get your own affairs in order FIRST before asking for help, favor, and intervention. Approaching God
Can you feel it? Are you aware we are not battling flesh and blood but something in the spirit realm? If you are a born again believer then you are enlisted to fight. But like any battle, the weapons you use are vital to your success. The wrong weapon in
My heart is heavy for the parents who are faced with the reality of their child’s school year. I have more to share but for now, I want to encourage you with the following: #1. ANGER – Be mad, let it out, process those emotions. Scream in a pillow,
How many of you could say in this hour, “I feel like I am doing everything right yet not producing the fruit that I desire?” Your A plus B is not equaling C! I confronted Hudson on his attitude towards his family after he comes home from a friend’s house.
Here are their responses loaded with empowerment and rich wisdom (see blog post above). 👊Taking risks that come with a belief he’s no longer a boy who needs protection (even if it looks completely immature or unnecessary to others). This can manifest by personal style or something as simple as
Teens girls have been fairly smooth sailing for me. When emotions are big I feel confident in how to respond and help them. Teen boys, on the other hand, have refined me to my core. I love my son dearly and connection with him is important to me, but I
Yes, the enemy is doing many un-fun things in our world right now, but let them wait and see what this generation is about to do. They will rise up and flip atmospheres, they will say NO with ease to the false comforts of the world. They will hinder the
When the kids were younger and would violate one of our household rules such as no hitting I would say to them, “Check your belly” which means how does your belly feel right now. Sin never feels good or brings peace. I was helping them see that it wasn’t just
My son is just that – MY SON! He recently made a mess by going against my instructions, not once but three times. He wanted something and felt tempted by it even though he knew it was wrong. As we walked through this something really hurt my heart and I
What did you eat last night for dinner? How about lunch yesterday? When was the last time you fed your spirit by… Reading the Word Praying Declaring Worshiping Encouraging others Laughing Serving others Praising God Journaling Repented/confessed Just like skipping meals and going without food, our spirit becomes weak if
I want more! I want more families to be intentional about their children! I want YOU to embrace all that God has for you and your family. I burn for more. I yearn that we, the Bride, all of us, would know that there is NO weapon formed against us
I put my newly pregnant self together and left my four-month-old twins at home for my first Mom’s Night Out in nearly a year. I was excited to join my mom’s group for a night of carefree laughs. All was going great until halfway through our meal when one mom

This is going to be a HUGE key for many parents! From a very early age, I could feel resistance with one of my daughters. I figured it was a generational thing and have intentionally gone after her heart. I would find myself saying YES to the others with ease,
I hear this ALL the time – a person falls radically in love with Jesus and has great ‘quiet times’. They get up early and spent tons of undivided time with Him and they have a close relationship. The kids come and soon those quiet moments together give way to
Chiropractors bring your body into alignment. Sometimes we need spiritual adjustments to realign us back to Him. https://youtu.be/l7vA_V1KhPc
He is not a “good father”. He is YOUR Father. If our journey has not included a father modeling what goodness looks and feels like then we will only be able to relate to His goodness in our minds as a concept. Our soul longs to EXPERIENCE His goodness. While
