After years of uncertainty about tithing, God showed me the importance of giving faithI do want to talk about something people often say, that a tithe has to go to a church. This is not true, and it’s not Biblical. I give in many different ways, to many different people and places. fully. Here’s my story of obedience, provision, and what I learned the hard way.

“Probable carcinoma.” Two words that should have shattered me—but instead became the doorway to surrender, peace, and a reminder that faith isn’t shaken by fear, it’s refined by it.

Fear and grief can overwhelm, but God’s promises remain. Reacting to Charlie Kirk’s death, we learn to trust Him in the wake of sorrow.

It’s what makes us morally responsible before God. He gave us a will so that love and obedience could be genuine, not robotic. God doesn’t force obedience — He invites it. The will is where we answer that invitation.

Faith doesn’t erase brokenness; it meets us in it. This piece is for anyone who still feels the ache even after saying yes to God — a reminder that being unfinished doesn’t mean being unloved.

Heaven's armies, a mother’s determination, and a friend’s encouragement are still at my side.

We all have friends who operate between the hours of 8 and 5. But will they be there on moving weekend? Or drive to pick you up if your car breaks down? Are they available 24/7? This is why so many people feel lonely at church. Like-minded people surround them. But none of them are friends.

Joy is something else; it is deeper, it is anchored to your soul, not your heart. Joy allows a person to feel intense contentment and long-lasting happiness, no matter the situation they are in in life.

The Bible is filled with stories of people breaking out in song, dance, and worship. Give it a try, next time you get in your car, turn off the pop music, turn off the news, and find a Christian station, and just sing and worship.

Leaving the church is one of the hardest decisions a believer can make but staying somewhere God is no longer welcome is not faithfulness. It is fear. And God did not give you a spirit of fear.

Happiness is tied to circumstances. But Joy? Joy is way deeper. Joy is an anchor. It comes from knowing the Lord is near, even when the storm rages on.
