Sometimes
Hey friend, honest moment: Lately I’ve had my fair share of “sometimes moments,” moments of doubt, weariness, and quiet hope. Moments when faith feels fragile and grace feels necessary. That’s the heart behind my latest blog post, Sometimes. And I want to share it with you.

Strong & Sure
Real talk, friend: God carried me through answered prayers and deep exhaustion in equal measure this year. As 2026 approaches, my simple prayer is: Lord, give me strength. If you’re hoping for fresh strength and endurance, you’re not alone. Read my latest post to encourage your heart, and share it with someone who can use…

And Yet
Whew, friend … this year has been doing the MOST. But you know what? God’s goodness keeps showing up right in the middle of the hard stuff.

Weary, But Worth It
Hard to believe my last blog post was 8 months ago. The culprit? A tiny human with 2 teeth and a serious milk habit. His happy eyes and easy smile are downright disarming. And, his giggles? Like sunshine for your soul. My last post was just weeks shy of Josiah’s birth. To say that life…

At This Moment
“Are you getting ready for the baby?” (Pause) “Uhhh . . . no.” My response to this popular, well-meaning question has likely surprised some folks. So, let’s be clear: We are over-the-moon happy and excited for Baby Dancy’s arrival this spring. And we’re equally grateful for a healthy pregnancy and growing baby in my tummy.…
