Drinking the cup of Salvation involves emptying the cup of sorrow and the cup of joy, so that God can fill it with pure life.

Saying Goodbye to the Voices in Your Head - 4 Steps to Shut Them Up.

Weeks ago, while mustering as much vulnerability as possible, I admitted to my husband that every time I attempt to slow down, this loud, accusing voice rises up within me. “You’re lazy!” it shouts.

“Cammie, that voice is your dad.”

Confessions of a Pentecostal Child

It all began when I realized I’d had it all wrong. Way wrong. Although difficult to admit, I was tired of what I call “white-knuckling” my relationship with Jesus – trying to be who I thought He wanted me to be and what others told me I should be. Always falling short. Always filled with shame.

The Guttural Cry that I Hear

I want to start this post by saying I know I’m not going to say everything correctly. I know I may inadvertently offend someone. I will get some, if not many, of the words wrong. Please know that causing hurt is not my heart.

Anything! Because saying nothing is indifference.

Then there are those, like me, who are orientated to the FUTURE, always planning and dreaming about what can be (can I hear a “whoop whoop!” for Enneagram 8’s?).

The One Word Answer to Our Differences

Recently, I was a bit taken back by the Facebook post of a former high school classmate. I believed it to be more profound than could be understood at first glance, causing me to mull it over for a couple of days. It made me want to have a conversation regarding the deeper meaning.  Some may have thought it was just simply sweet.  I thought it was more than that.
