A Day In The Life
Live Simply, Give Generously
Hopefully by now, you have heard that this year’s Missions Month is going to be a bit different because it falls right in the middle of Lent! Our mission theme of “Live Simply, Give Generously” is a perfect fit as the Lenten season already calls us to simplify our lives in some way so that we can deepen our attention to the cross…
Cross-Generational Friendships: An Interview with the Amazing Amy Moreillon
“I’ve been in the Beth Moore Entrusted Bible Study and she’s talked a lot about mentoring. I really feel this is something I’m supposed to be doing. Can you help me?

When the Going Gets Tough: The Gift of Friendship in Adversity
“Kyla, it’s 100% cancer. There’s nothing else that looks like this.” Those were the radiologist’s words the day I went in to check out the small lump I’d felt on my right breast two months prior. I was just going in for a quick appointment to clear my conscience of this annoying little spot that had crept up seemingly overnight. Instead, I received this crushing news, alone, on March 8, 2018 at the age of 35. I needed a friend
