  • Feeling Under Attack?

    When the Enemy Whispers “Quit,” God Says “Continue.” ​Hey God’Sip and Tea fam, ​Can we just be real for a moment? Lately, I’ve been feeling a pressure so intense, it’s like a spiritual weight pressing down on my chest. It’s the kind of pressure that makes you want to throw in the towel, delete all… Read more

  • Prayer: Is God Listening, or Are You Performing?

    We’ve all seen it: the awkward, overly dramatic public prayer that makes you wonder if they’re trying to talk to God or audition for a role. And let’s not even start on the prayer list for ‘more money’ and ‘a bigger house.’ It brings up a genuine question: Is there a theological line between bringing… Read more

  • From “Unrehabilitatable” to Unstoppable:

    In what ways does hard work make you feel fulfilled? The True Fulfillment of Hard Work ​The diploma is hanging on my wall. It reads: Master’s Diploma in Mental Health Coaching. ​For some, that piece of paper is just a career milestone. For me, it is the physical manifestation of a spiritual and personal triumph.… Read more

  • When Correction Becomes Condemnation

    ​Scripture isn’t a sword for ego; it’s a scalpel for healing (Hebrews 4:12). The way we treat, seek out, and speak to one another is where the danger lies. When we lose compassion in our interactions, our words—spoken or written—risk becoming mere commentary more than genuine correction. ​For those in positions of leadership or influence,… Read more

  • My Truth:

    ​When “Unwanted” Becomes God’s Chosen ​There are some things in life you just can’t unsee, unfeel, or unlearn. For a long time, I carried the deep, bone-weary weight of being unwanted. Not just disliked, but genuinely, physically, and mentally hated by my own mother. ​The sheer volume of cruelty when I was little was so… Read more

  • Music:The Soul Touch Weapon

    How I Repurposed a Tool of Destruction into an Instrument of Worship ​Music has always been more than just sound to me. Growing up, the Spanish salsa, 90’s soft rock, and Latin freestyle music that played on repeat weren’t just background noise—they became my cleaning anthems. As a teen, my ear for music was huge;… Read more

  • Impact vs Influence

    ​”Influence” Is Just a Distraction from Our Purpose ​We all know what an influencer is. They’re the people with the big followings, the perfectly curated feeds, and the power to get us to buy that new pair of sneakers or try the latest coffee trend. An influencer’s value is often measured in likes, clicks, and… Read more

  • When the Body Remembers:

    Understanding Trauma and Grace ​Hey everyone, and welcome back to God’Sip and Tea, where we sip on truth and talk about life’s real moments. Today, I want to tackle something incredibly personal, something that often goes unseen, unheard, and definitely misunderstood: the body’s response to trauma. And yeah, sometimes, it gets laughed at. ​It’s a… Read more

  • A Million Dollars’ Worth of Game:

    Finding Your Place in God’s Will ​I’ve been on a journey for a long time—a journey that started with me feeling completely lost. For years, I was a runaway, confused about what God’s will even was. I used to say, “Where there’s a will, there’s a Jessica,” and I was right, but maybe not in… Read more

  • Pillars of Salt and Straight Jackets:

    The Danger of Looking Back ​Hey God’Sip Fam, ​Grab your favorite mug, because today we’re diving deep into a topic that’s been heavy on my heart, and I suspect, on the hearts of many of you too. It’s about the past. Not the warm, fuzzy, nostalgic kind of past, but the kind that claws at… Read more
