Girl Talk

What if the thing standing between you and a deeper relationship with Jesus isn't a lack of faith, but fear? Jesus never promised that following Him would be easy, predictable, or even comfortable. In fact, sometimes the very thing He's asking us to do is the thing we're most afraid of. But the good news is this: walking with Jesus into the unknown, is never unkown for Him - and He has very good p...

“Follow your heart” sounds good on a coffee mug…but is it actually good advice? This week, Carol, Kelly and Tricia are talking about something Jesus never said: follow your heart.

“We’re asking the wrong question. Not ‘how can I be better?’ but ‘why don’t I understand how big His grace is?’” Okay, honest question… does Easter actually matter once Easter Sunday is over?
