If You Knew What Someone’s Soul Looked Like, Would You Still Sleep With Them?
I’m not a virgin…gasp, sigh, swoon, do what you have to do, but also get over it. In addition to being single for 8 years I’ve also been abstinent/celibate/ for an extended period of time. On the outside looking in, I’d be willing to make the argument that I think sex while dating can actually …

Falling Back In Love With Jesus
When you fall out of love, it’s heartbreaking. You’re left to wonder what went wrong; was it me, was it him (or her)? It wasn’t like this in the beginning. What changed? Disappointment. That’s it. When what you expect, is not what you get. You’re fed up and can’t take it anymore and it’s time to call it quits, because they did not keep their end of the bargain. And so I fell out of love with Jesus….
Will He Wait?
A lot of women are deciding to abstain from sex until marriage for many reasons. The problem comes in when trying to date men who are accustomed to having sex while in a relationship.
I received a question from a young lady in her 30’s who has decided to start dating again. She said she’s trying to live by God’s principles and save sex for marriage. She keeps meeting men who are Christians but don’t want to live by God’s principles about sex…
Who Is Like The Lord?
“Oh taste and see that The Lord is good. Blessed is the man that trusteth in Him. (Psalms 34:8)” The more I live, the older I get, the more experiences I have, the more I see, that it is true.

Empire – Yay or Nay
I didn’t realize so many people have so many opinions regarding the hottest show on television: Empire – from the network’s owner to stereotyping. For some, watching the current primetime hit series “Empire,” which airs on FOX, starring Taraji P. Henson and Terrence Howard, with its twists, schemes, and sizzling manipulations is a no brainer; while others may see those viewers as…
Give Me That Old Time Religion
Growing up in a very strict and structured church, there were a lot of things that felt more like bondage than freedom in faith. I’d have to strip who I was (which was a very wholesome young lady might I say) Monday through Saturday and straighten up (even more so) on Sunday. It’s amazing how

The Other Side of Faith
One of the greatest possessions anyone can have is their faith. I’d even go as far as to say that if a person loses everything, but still has their faith, it is possible they can get everything back that they’ve lost. Faith is arguably one of the most talked about topics in churches worldwide, and even non-church going people tap into this thing called faith. It is the key to everything thats possible…
It Could All Be So Simple
Religion is supposed to unite. But in actuality, the opposite is true. Even those of the same belief system are sometimes divided, in the name of minor disagreeing beliefs within the same religion. People generally want something to believe in. It makes them feel purposeful, connected, and like they belong. So when my very close friend was seeking for a deeper meaning to life, she…
