Recently, in my country mega churches via anti Christian journalists have gone under fire for staff burnout. Arise Church was first in line for pushing it’s interns to work ridiculous hours 7 days a week. Among other gripes, they were made to baby sit leadership kids for free, sometimes driving an hour to get toContinue reading “Turning On Your Faith And What Defined You Will Only Leave You Broken.”

When I was 18, long before the internet, I found an article on the ground. I actually don’t remember where I was but the words were so profound, it was like God speaking to me directly so I wrote it down again on a notepad. Years went by and I assumed the article had longContinue reading “Don’t Be Anxious. Don’t Worry. Don’t Look At The Things You Want. Just keep Looking At Me.”

Well I made it back to NZ’s world famous MIQ of which I was dreading and I have to say…it’s actually been heaps of fun!!藍 After 8 check points in Auckland for temperature readings through to checking for a left over orange, all 50 of us from Los Angeles were ushered through to a transitContinue reading “Ma te wa USA”

It all got so hard. Four kids and my marriage was coming to an end. Problems were coming from every direction and the list went on and… I was done. But you know what? It doesn’t matter. None of what I just said, does. The person back then wouldn’t have thought twice about writing downContinue reading “I Did My Best For You God. Where Were You?”

I was carrying around the brokenness of my parent’s divorce since I was 7 and in a new epidemic of broken families, it was assumed children were resilient and didn’t need any support. While our parents were leaning on friends to unpack their marriage breakups, like many Gen X kids, the breaking children were toldContinue reading “The King of Kings Promised Me Forever.”
