The news media (if they can be believed) tells us that more than ever Americans fear for the state of our nation if their candidate doesn’t win the election.

Seeing God with the Eyes of your Heart
I read this verse in Psalms and wondered if the makers of the first telescope thought they would see the throne of God above the firmament. Were they disappointed to find only stars? . . . .

Love Notes from God
I had the privilege of sharing my creative testimony with women who are emerging out of spiritual darkness. They listened intently as I shared my story, and they excitedly participated in the creative expression I had for them afterwards. My greatest joy . . .

Singleness of Heart
Take a closer look at the photo above. Do you see the haziness? I wondered, “Do they have a smoke machine here at Pursuit?” No. They do not. That cloud that you see is supernatural. It is the cloud of God’s glory.
