Do you ever question your worth, question God’s love for you, or compare yourself unfavorably to others? Are you a burden bearer, perfectionist, or struggle with codependency? Are you often overwhelmed, stressed out, or feel “not enough”? Most women can be nurturing to others, but neglect to show the same care for themselves. They can demonstrate much empathy and compassion to the people in their lives, yet berate and even hate themselves. Despite the abundance of resources available to support women's mental health, stress and anxiety levels among women are on the rise....

When God gives you a dream, it doesn’t come with a manual. At first, the excitement and longing for the dream can drive you. Yet if you do not understand God’s process of preparing the dreamer for the dream and the true meaning of the seeds He plants, you can travel a disappointing, discouraging, and confusing path. Dreams inspired by God require intense seasons of refinement, perseverance, and character development and whatever you must endure to reach His dream for you is outweighed by the glory of being changed by God in the most uncommon ways. Surely dreams are worth more...

"For whatever reason, two of the best faith-based films regarding nuance and complexity come from two female directors. Roman Dawson directed this year's Breakthrough , about a family struggling with the impending death of their hospitalized son. Sharon Wilharm wrote and directed Summer of 67 , a film about two sisters who struggle with their mother's suicide when they were kids, and worry over their men who've gone off to fight in Vietnam. Both of these films portray faith positively, but with sensitivity and without answering every question." ...

Embracing Our Queenly Anointing was birthed out of the author’s recognition that the good, bad and sometimes ugly experiences of the daughter’s of the King, all serve to crown us Queens in the kingdom. The backdrop is the book of Esther, where God used an orphan maiden to rescue a nation from genocide. Though the journey is sometimes laboriously painful, the desire is that God’s Queens will take courage and be resolute in fearlessly facing their giants in the royal court. The hope is that all of God’s daughters will utilize whatever they’ve been allotted...

As women, we struggle to feel like we’re good enough because we are bombarded daily with messages that whisper, “Who you are is not okay.” We live in a world that tells us we have to look a certain way, live a certain lifestyle, have husbands who fit a certain mold, and have children that excel in every area of their lives. And rather than thrive in the life we have, we strive to create an existence that impresses others. This impossible treadmill leaves us with deep discontentment and a joyless existence. God doesn’t apologize for how He created us. And while...
