  • Shedding the Self to Find the Soul

    (A Study in Sanctification) ​If you are walking this path, you know that the space you now occupy is a delicate, vulnerable place. The spiritual obedience that requires you to sever deeply rooted connections and face your own failures is an act of profound courage, not coldness. Know that what you are doing is not… Read more

  • Walking the Path of Grace and Obedience

    ​Hello everyone. I want to continue a conversation we started in “Million Dollars Worth of Game,” where we wrestled with the three wills. If you’ve ever felt lost, confused, or heartbroken trying to find your place in God’s plan, please know you are not alone. That struggle is real. ​Today, we’re talking about the simple… Read more

  • The Oil That Cannot Be Borrowed:

    Why Unseen Work Matters ​In a culture obsessed with immediate visibility and effortless spirituality, the lines between true faith and worldly fanfare are dangerously blurred. We look for quick, visible wins, but genuine discipleship demands a profound, costly commitment, a way of life that operates far from the spotlight and often goes completely unrecognized. This… Read more

  • Tithes: Command, Ritual, or a Heart of Worship?

    ​The question of tithing is one of the biggest debates in the church today. Does God really command us to drop exactly 10% of our paycheck into the offering plate, or is this a ritual created by man built off a single command given to a single man? ​Let’s spill the God’Sip and Tea on… Read more

  • The Essential Difference Between the Message and the Messenger

    ​One of the most valuable lessons in protecting your peace is learning to separate the wisdom from the source. ​In life, we often encounter powerful truths, profound advice, or insightful observations delivered by people whose actions, character, or treatment of us fall short. ​When this happens, we face a choice: Do we reject the entire… Read more

  • Am I Not Holy Enough?”

    The Lie of the ‘Perfect Christian’ on Social Media ​Lately, I’ve been thinking deeply about the quiet, constant pressure in many faith communities: the unspoken rule that a true Christian’s life should only be shared in a clean, polished, happy highlight reel. We are often led to believe that our faith is only strong if… Read more

  • The Hidden Cost of “Help”

    Why My Success Made Them Judge ​Sometimes, the hardest part of surviving struggle isn’t the cold or the hunger; it’s the moral judgment of the people who are supposed to be helping you. ​I know this first-hand. I was homeless until 19. Along that brutal path, I met many people who were tasked with offering… Read more

  • Hurt as a Holy Compass

    ​Let’s pull up a chair, friends, and dive into the “God’Sip” for today. ​I’ve been reflecting deeply on the paradox of emotional maturity. You put in the hard work, the kind of soul-deep work that comes from having to build your own foundation, and you finally reach a place of clear emotional intelligence (EQ). You… Read more

  • Why I Pour Grace for Those Who Tried to Break Me

    ​There’s a kind of cruel drama some people love to inflict: the moment they realize they’re in the wrong, they quickly flip the script and try to make you the villain. ​I know what that feels like. I’ve been in situations where I spoke a truth that needed to be heard, only to be met… Read more

  • The Tea Is That I Don’t Belong

    ​If there’s one thing I’ve learned on this journey with God, it’s that sometimes the deepest feelings we have are also the most universal. So grab your mug, because today’s tea is about something real and raw: the profound feeling that you don’t belong anywhere, to anyone, not even to the people who saved you.… Read more
