Quotes

The only reason you see the shadow is because you’ve turned away from the light.

Process the light of the truth and change the way you’re thinking by replacing my thoughts with His thoughts and let His thoughts shape our actions.

When I walked in the truth, my feelings would begin to align over time.

We find two most powerful words in community: “Me too.”

Our girlfriends can be the one that says don’t be so hard on yourself.

Social media can give me a surfacey sense of community. It’s kind of like rice cakes – it doesn’t nourish my heart.

Quotes

Our physical health is so often product of and a reflection of our spiritual health.

Our lack of health is a result of us attempting to fill ourselves with something else other than Christ.
