Ep 001: JustShayin – Chad Norris

Hey everyone! I am so excited to share this conversation I had with Chad Norris. We share about how the Kingdom of God is full of paradoxes. You don’t want to focus so much on one side of the coin while ignoring the other. Chad is the Senior “Coach”...

Drop the bat. Pick up a feather.

When it comes to myself, I have the tendency to have standards the size of Mt. Everest. In some ways this is an amazing thing, but when it comes to grace and loving myself well, it usually doesn’t play out successful. These standards that I have placed on myself seem...

Pull Up Your Own Chair

Growing up in the church, it was instilled in me to love others well as we are all called to serve. I honestly loved to help; however, Jesus’ model of transforming the world around us is to love God with everything we have and then love our neighbor the way we love...
