God’s Power Works Best in Weakness

I enjoy playing worship music in the kitchen for inspiration and company. I don’t usually listen intently, but my ears perked up when I heard the question posed by a honey-voiced announcer: “Who have you disappointed today?” Being a people pleaser, I made a list in my head. I didn’t get to the grocery store, […]

At first glance this list of Old Testament proverbs may appear like a hodgepodge of random thoughts.

By sovereignty, I mean God’s right as the King of the universe […]
