For all my life I was never one to enjoy writing. And yet, when the Lord saved me, he gave me the desire to read. The more I read, the more I felt the itch to write my own content.  Here I am, and I’ve been writing seriously since 2018. By God’s grace I’ve been... Continue Reading →

There has been quite the kerfuffle in the last week on Twitter — as if there isn’t one always. This debate was over anxiety: is it a sin or not? I don’t usually partake in debates online because, far more often than not, they prove unfruitful. With that said, in this particular circumstance I decided... Continue Reading →
