This World Needs Brave People . . . MENTORS

Mentors: Don’t Give Up!

By

I watch my daughter’s eyes beam with excitement as she runs down to the front of the church and takes a seat on the steps near the altar. She thinks it’s music time and any moment now her music teacher from VBS will start playing “her song.” I tell her it’s not music time, church is over and it’s time to go. She tugs at my shirt and grunts at me as if to tell me “You’re wrong, Mama. It’s music time!” Finally admitting defeat, she walks with me back down the church aisle and we leave. It’s Because of…

My List: Living Well in this Season

By

1 Timothy 4:12  NIV “Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.” In a class last semester, I was challenged to develop a philosophy of life. What drives me to do what I do, to act the way I act, to strive to continually grow and learn in all the many roles I take on?

By

Recently I shared with More to Be readers about a dream I had of hosting a reDefining Beauty event for teen girls. This event was something that God laid on my heart over a year ago as something my Acteens group could do for girls in our  community. For some time I had wrestled with the idea. Could we pull it off? What if no one showed up?

How to Spend Your Summer Wisely

How to Spend Your Summer Wisely

By

I don’t know about you, but when the weather is nice outside, I tend to have zero motivation to do any kind of work. Why stay cooped up inside all day when the sun is shining outside? But just because it is summer doesn’t mean there isn’t still work to be done. Yes, it is tempting to blow off all tasks and spend these sunny days out by the pool. Besides, there is a reason it’s called summer vacation! However, Proverbs 13:4 NLT says, Lazy people want much but get little, but those who work hard will prosper. Notice that it…
