When you go through a difficult season, it’s easy to wonder: Where is God in all of this?
Does God see? Does He even care? Why doesn’t He do something?
After watching the news this week, my heart broke over the suffering of so many people. When innocent people suffer unjustly, something in us questions Continue reading

Tired of bloating, gas, abdominal pain or bowel trouble?
Reoccurring digestive issues can really cramp your style.

Want to change your life this year? Tired of the same old bad habits? Are you feeling defeated, overwhelmed, and hopeless?
