What to Wear

What to Wear

  Ladies, We are always trying to figure out what to wear. We may dress our flesh, but often leave our spirit man naked. We are going to get scars, wounds, but how much better will it be WHEN those flaming darts come our way, that they would be deflected by our shield of faith. So how should we dress? How should we fight these daily battles we face? “A final word: Be strong in the Lord ... Read More »

He Is Good

After the incredible response from our “Love, Loss and Forgiveness” WIRL yesterday, I thought it would be fitting to share the sermon given from Forest Hill Pastor, David Chadwick, on the day of the Eddings family tragedy.

Pregnancy and Anxiety

  I feel like these two things do not go well together. Anybody else? Having anxiety is one thing, and being pregnant is another. But having both…is a whole new ball game. I could go on and on, but someone who understands/has/deals with someone with anxiety knows how awful and traumatic and debilitating it can be.
