Do You, Boo Boo!
In movies, characters are always keenly aware of their uniqueness and see it as a negative. I wonder, how many times do we take on this negative perspective each day?

Good Grief!
I encourage you to grieve when you need. It doesn’t matter if a loved one has died, a friendship or partnership dissolved, a marriage and family divided, a job has been lost, or a deal fell through, these are all forms of loss that deserve to be mourned.
Wordsmith: Entrustment
We all have those experiences, hurts, disappointments, pain, suffering, etc. that cause us to sometimes doubt the goodness of God. Those are the moments God is entrusting to us to continue to serve and love him well.
Shut Up, Siri!
I put my faith in my GPS, trusting that it will get me to my destinatioan, yet often I don’t want to do what it’s saying. As I drove around in the darkness, getting lost and frustrating Siri, I thought to myself “I wonder how many times I do this to God”. How often do we pray and ask God for directions, but then refuse to follow his voice?
Wordsmith: Scalability
What if we prepared our character, our business model, our communication, our schedule, relationships, etc. to accommodate the growth we are praying for? I wonder what our world would look like if we actively participated in our lives and dreams instead of passively leaving them up to God.
Pressing into the Pain
What do you do when God begins to press down on those areas that give us pain?
Wordsmith: Duplicability
We are always duplicating ourselves in others; what are you choosing to pass on? The disciples eventually mentored other men and women in the ministry, discipling them, and duplicating themselves, knowing that the message that Jesus shared was too big to just keep to themselves.
Pray for your Spouse
Prayer isn’t a tool to be used to correct someone else, but to correct yourself. Whether you’re married or not, looking or not, happy or not, pray for your spouse. And when you do, pray for yourself. I’m not talking about selfish prayers, but selfless prayers.
Wordsmith: Sustainability
When we learn to say “no” to certain things, opportunities tend to open up for things you didn’t know were possible. Maybe, by saying “no” to some things, you’ll be able to hear from God in a new way you’ve been craving.
Wordsmith Series
Over the next few weeks, we’ll be looking at some words that are commonly heard in the business realm of our society and how that intersects with our faith.
I believe there is a blessing waiting at the end of this journey, as we dig deeper into our faith, seeing those places when what we believe and where we work intersect. I’m excited for you to journey with me as we dig deeper into what we believe and how we communicate and live out our faith.
