  • 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

  • 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

  • Laminin: Held by the Cross, Known by the Creator

    ​There are moments when the veil between our world and the Divine feels thin, and we are given a breathtaking glimpse of God’s signature written not just in the stars, but within the marrow of our own bones. I recently encountered a profound scientific fact about our very existence that should stop us all in… Read more

  • The Cost of Grace: Unboxing the Unqualified

    ​I know what it’s like to be utterly dismissed and unseen. For years, I was just a label—a runaway kid with no identity, living in a void. My suffering was so heavy, so silent, that the only time it became visible was in a hospital bed or behind the locked doors of a psychiatric ward.… Read more

  • The True Harvest: Why the Narrow Way Is Worth My Pain

    ​ They call it “the narrow way.” For me, a person who chooses truth over comfort, this isn’t just a choice—it’s a necessary process of shedding every single social mask. ​I know the cost of this path is high. The world constantly demands that I soften, compromise, and ignore the hypocrisy. But for me, inauthenticity… Read more

  • 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

  • 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
