KINGDOM OVER EVERYTHING
On Tuesday I teared up on a zip line. While I’m not the type hesitant to shed a tear, I think that’s a first for me. And before you draw conclusions, no, it wasn’t because I was deathly afraid of the zip line. Tuesday marked one year since I started at Grace Church. I found…

I love Easter Sunday. Every Easter, I attend church with my family and celebrate the resurrection of Jesus. There’s no shortage of singing or dancing (although there may be more or less of the latter depending on the denomination you may or may not associate with… Alright, bad joke). The point is: there’s hope. And there…
