Here to be Salt!
Jesus clearly states in Matthew 5 that our role as Christians on the earth is a transformational one. We are called “the salt of the earth,” and salt essentially does three things: It adds flavor, it preserves, and it heals.

The number one question I am asked – How do I know God’s calling on my life? The most important calling on your life is too spend time with God! Also many ask – Is God calling me? the answer is always, “Absolutely.” He’s calling each and every one of us to Himself. That’s the […]

My two grandchildren, Isabella and Liam, live very close, and I am fortunate they visit often. One of their favorite activities is to check out Grandmom’s snack bag, which is just for them.
