If I had a nickel for every religious activity I’ve been asked to do, I would be a very rich woman. Some of them I have done, but I’m not going to say I am happy I that I did it either. Religious activities leave me feeling dead inside and unfulfilled. In the deepest places of my heart nobody knows about; something in me cries, “Is this really it? Is this all there is?” Because the spirit of religion is intimidating, it will always want to squelch your desire to reach out and say just that; “Is this all there is?”
Get more! Be more! have more in Jesus! amen

I was that "unpopular" wierdo kid, that didn't fit in anywhere, in High School. I guess I never knew my place in life, until Jesus took me in. I've been rejected, misunderstood, left out, bullied, abused, scandalized, and labeled. In 2002 I got on a bus and left a marraige of sixteen years, that was fraught with abuse and heartache. In school, I used to be so afraid to stand in front of the class and speak, my hands woud visibily shake, and I could not look at my audience without being terrified. Years later, I find myself leading a school music production, speaking in front of churches, and walking around with confidence, because I know the King of Kings is at my side. My ministry, prayers and blogs are directed toward those who feel like they were never enough. You never fit in. You lacked confidence. My understanding of scripture was hard-won. I may not be the most theological person you ever met, but I am a daily studier of the word of God. I believe he wants to talk to you (and to me) and that your relationship with God is every bit as important to him and his relationship with some big-name minister. He cherishes you. My main thrust is evangalism to the lost, hope to the hurting, and revitalized love to those who thought they knew God, but someone cut in on them and told them they didn't. If I can help you in any way, if you need a special speaker to speak hope to the hurting, or if you would like a copy of my Testimony book (Grace to the Rescue) let me know. I am here for you.
