Small groups are a wonderful thing to have at church and is one of the things that appealed to me about Oasis LA. I especially liked how they rolled out new groups every season so that we could try new things, and more importantly, meet new people. The very first small group that I joined …
Or at least it feels that way here in L.A. And springtime means that Easter — or as it is more properly called, Resurrection Sunday — is almost here. Easter is just five weeks away, and one of the things that I look forward to about Easter is spending time with family and friends and …
“Save half.” I have heard this advice twice. The first time I heard it, I was a 21-year-old college student working part time as a customer service representative for a luxury car company. I took a call from a fatherly type. During the course of the call, he told me that he always made his …
The biggest challenge that I have in staying organized, besides the lack of storage in my small space, is managing all of the paper that comes in, which is primarily through mail. To tackle this problem, I bought a book years ago called, “Organize Yourself!” (Eisenberg, 1997). When I finally had time to read it, …
Before I recall ever going to church, I recall having a set of Children’s Bible Stories that our parents bought for us. It was before I knew how to read, but I loved looking at the pictures. I remember seeing a beautiful depiction of Jacob’s Ladder and…believing. My parents had planted a seed. A few …
I really like style, but I find that it is often difficult to find things to wear that are both fashionable and modest. As we learned in the post, I Am a Model, we are to model appearance. Therefore, I have made it my mission to create looks that are both appropriate and fun. I …
I once wanted to run, but every time I tried, I failed. I was determined, though, so I was excited when I saw an article about how to build endurance. It advised, run one minute and then walk for two and repeat for a total of 10 minutes. And then the next time, run two …
I try to start my mornings by reading and posting the Word of the Day. But then I get so distracted by all of the alerts that were sent to my phone overnight that there goes my time with God. Not exactly the morning devotion that God intended or deserves. Trying not to let my …
Shortly after moving to L.A., my neighbor invited me to attend a live taping of a TV show the night before it was to be taped. I happily accepted, immediately. And then she sent me the email of instructions about what to wear and I thought, Oh no! I don’t think I have a single …
That was the message given by one of the guest speakers at the Arise 2019 Women’s Conference: I am a model. A friend invited me to attend and her pastor, Jason Lozano, was giving the message. I was very interested to hear what he, a man, had to say to us women about how to …
