Ewomen: Angela Thomas

Latte with The Queen Mommy

Angela Thomas, mother of 4 and author of several books, was a powerful speaker at this conference. Although I’d never heard her speak before, I have a good friend who has talked often about trying to get her here for a church event.  While Angela was speaking, I texted my friend and said “Dont’ give… read more »

Ewomen: Lysa Terkeurst

you-shall-not-pass

Although I loved every single speaker (and I mean that), Lysa Terkeurst was one of the most impactful to me personally.  Every woman who spoke had a story of God’s redemption and grace – despite difficulties, tragedies and sometimes incomprehensible pain.  Lysa seemed to have a message tailored just for me… Lysa Terkeurst, of Proverbs… read more »

The Uncelebration of an Anniversary

Latte with The Queen Mommy

Yesterday, was an anniversary for me.  One I do not celebrate.  But one I will forever remember. Yesterday, was the anniversary of my abortion.

Wanna Be a True Woman?

It’s hard not to.  We… read more »
