You won’t relent until You have it all. My heart is yours.  You won’t relent until You have it all. My heart is yours.   I’ve had those lyrics in my head for the past couple days, trying to keep my heart open to God. But I’ll be honest. I came into this trip with a closed heart, both to God and to other people. Yes, I trusted in God that India was where He wanted me to be and was open to Him working in my life but there were still parts of my heart that I tried to keep closed off to Him and everyone else. The part of my heart that is dark and filled with selfishness,...

There is so much that I could say to describe my time at training camp in Georgia. I could describe the living conditions, the bucket showers, the teachings on the Holy Spirit (and how you could see him move), the charismatic worship, or the food. But I want to focus on a single lesson that I learned: the weights we hold. These could be regrets of things done, of things not done, of people we have hurt, of anger towards people who have hurt us, anything. These are any weights that keep us from focusing entirely on God. These are the weights that the enemy uses against us. On the third day of...

Something has happened over the past few days at Passport Training Camp. My heart has been captured in way that I don’t ever think it has been before. I’ve absolutely fallen in love with the girls on my team. The Lord is showing me bits of what He’s doing inside of them, and it’s touching my heart in the most tender way. I’ve seen change happen in them already. The way that they love and support each other after only a few days of knowing one another blows me away. Their soft hearts and teachable spirits spur me on to have a purer faith. They’re in it...

Training camp came to a close tonight and we are packing up, shaking down, and getting ready to start the journey to Calcutta TOMORROW! So thankful to be co-leading this team of eleven lovable, crazy, incredible women, and so excited to see the crazy ways that God is going to use us in the next four months in India. Thank you everyone for your prayers and support!

Hello everyone from Toccoa Falls College in the middle of nowhere Georgia! Our team is currently at training camp and have started to pack up to head off to Calcutta tomorrow morning. I just want all of you to know that whoever has been praying for our trip, the holy spirit is already working in each and everyone of us and it is so evident. We have a team of six girls and an amazing leader Heidi, she is ROCK. We are a team of laughter, encouragement, and goodness. It is so special to have a small intimate group where we feel like we can share anything and everything and feel...

Worship. There are many ways to do this. Holding your hands to the sky. Flat on the floor. Jumping up and down. Standing completely still. Swaying. Again, there are many ways. And God has been teaching me how to really praise Him! I needed to get over the whole, “What are they going to think of me? Are they gonna find me weird if I put my hands in the air or close my eyes as I am singing.” That is NOT why we worship our God. It’s not about what others will think of you. It’s not about ‘looking good.’ It’s about a one person audience. It’s about...
