'God'Sip & Tea

Sip the Tea and Find the truth

#IronSharpensIron

  • To My Brothers and Sisters in Christ:

    The Anointing in the Wilderness ​In the Word, we see a pattern that defies human logic. Before there is a throne, there is a field. Before there is a victory, there is a wilderness. ​We all know the story of David, but we often skip the part that hurts: the rejection. David was “marked off”… Read more

  • The Cost of a Stolen Vision

    The Tea is Bitter, but the Truth is Sweet ​There is a specific kind of hurt that comes when you open your heart to a “sister” and realize she was only there to take notes. ​When you’ve lived the life I’ve lived, running away, surviving the streets, my “strong exterior” becomes a target. People see… Read more

  • A Call to Clarity:

    Integrity and the Path of True Surrender ​To those seeking to walk the narrow path, we must be careful who we allow to draw the map. In a world of fear and confusion, it is easy to let the lines of our faith become blurred. ​We see guidance being offered that prioritizes human control over… Read more

  • The Armor of God:

    The Outkeep of the Soul vs. The Performance ​In this life, there is a performance being put on that would make a theater blush. It’s the performance of “innocence.” We’ve all seen it: the person with the soft voice, the wide-eyed “cluelessness,” and the constant use of the “naive card” to dodge accountability. They move… Read more

  • The Theology of the Runaway:

    ​From the Wilderness to the Remnant ​Pull up a chair and take a sip. We need to talk about a story we think we know, but through a lens most are too afraid to use. We often discuss the twelve-year-old boy in the Temple (Luke 2) as a perfect Sunday school lesson. We focus on… Read more

  • The 360 Restoration:

    Forgiveness Beyond the ‘Unrehabilitatable’ ​Welcome back to God’Sip and Tea. Today, we are pouring out a truth that is as heavy as it is healing. ​If you have ever walked through a fire that should have consumed you, you know that forgiveness isn’t just a “polite” suggestion. When you have survived abandonment, the kidnapping of… Read more

  • The Tea They Can’t Swallow:

    ​My Breath, His Words ​Pull up a chair. Let’s get real about the “God’Sip.” ​There’s a specific kind of look people give you when you’ve survived things that should have buried you. I know that look. I’ve seen it in the eyes of the “shaken in faith” and the “naysayers” who have read the Book… Read more

  • The Spore Effect:

    Why Good People Turn ​Today we’re getting into something that most people don’t want to talk about because it feels uncomfortable. We’re talking about the “Spore Effect.” You know, we spend so much time focusing on how to grow good fruit in our lives, joy, peace, humility, and gratefulness. We treat these attributes like they… Read more

  • The High Cost of Discernment:

    Why the World Can’t Handle the Raw Truth ​There is a specific kind of loneliness that comes when you realize you simply don’t “fit” into the standard machinery of society. For me, that feeling wasn’t a choice; it was a reality I was born into. I have always been an outsider because of a gift… Read more

  • The Guest List of One:

    Why My Communion Isn’t a Crowd Today, I’m pouring something bold, unfiltered, and strictly between us and the Creator. ​We’ve all heard the saying, “Birds of a feather flock together.” In many circles, people take that to mean that if you aren’t part of a massive group or a constant social “flock,” you’re doing it… Read more
