Choosing Church
When I think back to my years in university, I can’t justify church-skipping any more than I can defend missing class. I had a million excuses though. I didn’t know anyone, I didn’t like the music, it was too far, etcetera.
Laughter Therapy
I’ve learned you don’t need to be happy all the time—or even have a great sense of humour—to receive the benefits of laughter.
Simple Acts of Kindness Ideas

Do Something
Thinking about the New Testament and its focus on acting on our faith has prompted conviction in my heart. There is so much more I could be doing but don’t because of laziness, fear, and selfishness.
Resting in Christ
When I’m in the midst of change I often wonder if I’m following God’s guidance or just doing what I want.
How Do I Discover My Spiritual Gifts?
