Advent Week Three: Joy
Advent joy is not the reward of arrival, but the elation of knowing what we hope for is coming. It rises from certainty, not possession. This week invites us to notice where waiting has turned light, where trust lifts the heart, and joy quietly begins to move. Continue reading

Advent Week Two: The Quiet Center of Peace
Advent peace is not escape but strength. It grows in small moments of quiet and is carried into the noise of real life. In Week Two we learn to breathe slower, stand steadier, and walk with the One who brings order to our chaos. Peace becomes the center we carry. Continue reading

Virtue Series | Week 13 – Humility
Humility steadies a man. It clears pride, sharpens vision, and anchors daily life in truth. It strengthens relationships, shapes leadership, and opens the heart to God’s guidance.

Virtue Series | Week 10 – Cleanliness

This week I confronted procrastination, fear, and inconsistency, but also saw the strength of persistence and small wins. Resolution is not rigid willpower—it is integrity, trustworthiness, and the courage to follow through on what matters most. Continue reading

Virtue Series | Week 3 – Order
Franklin confessed Order was the hardest virtue for him. This week I found the same. From cluttered papers to unguarded afternoons, disorder creates stress. But even small routines and victories bring clarity. Order is not perfection—it is peace, agency, and the freedom to live with purpose. Continue reading
