The False Expectation of Marriage for Being a Good Girl: Thoughts on Erica Campbell’s Recent Comments | @intercession4ag @trackstarz
I understand where Erica Campbell is coming from as she encourages singles to shift their thinking from loose sexual character to that of purity in preparation for marriage.

How Much is Too Much When Dressing Modestly Plus Chicme Review|@intercession4ag @trackstarz
How many of us have seen someone who is a devote woman of God wearing something and asked ourselves if it was too much? What about when we wear that new dress which we weren’t aware had so much cleavage, but we decided to wear it anyway thinking it isn’t that bad? These are both […]
Vulnerability as a Doorway to Relationships & Living Fully: | @intercession4ag @trackstarz
Vulnerability is exposing ourselves to the possibility of being hurt. Vulnerability, according to Chip Dodd, is the doorway to living fully in relationships.

The Sin of Unbelief |@intercession4ag @trackstarz
The sin of unbelief is something that will keep us in cycles of sin simply because we don’t believe God is good. We don’t believe in the gospel fully and we don’t believe we are enough to receive God’s goodness. I was reminded of this when viewing a film this past week about Hosea. The […]
Ladies: Your Voice is Important! | @intercession4ag @trackstarz

The Power of Choice | @intercession4ag @trackstarz
When you choose something you genuinely want; you appreciate it more and are more willing to pay the price for it. I thought about this when I recently went into an office supplies store looking for a printer. The printers had been flying off of the shelves due to Covid-19―possibly because many people are working […]
Simplifying the Cares Act for Student Loans: | @intercession4ag @trackstarz
Many Millennials are facing student loan debt. As you may already know by now; the government has enacted a mandatory deferment on all Federal student loans from March 13th, 2020 – September 30th, 2020. That means people holding Federal student loans do not have to make a principal or interest payment until October of 2020 […]
