From Performance to Presence: Living Unveiled Before God
Hello Friend! This post is about performance-based faith and how God is gently drawing me into presence. You see, for much of my life, I believed that pleasing God meant doing better. Trying harder. Getting it right. If I could just be more disciplined, more obedient, more faithful, then surely I would earn His approval.…
Contentment That Heals: When Forgiveness Protects the Peace God Is Building
In this season, God has been teaching me about contentment and forgiveness in ways that feel both tender and refining. For a long time, I thought contentment meant learning how to live unaffected.

Integrity Before God, Contentment Within | Becoming Whole
Hello Friend! Lately, God has been teaching me about contentment. Not as an idea. Not as a personality trait. And not as something you arrive at once and for all.

You're in Better Hands
In last week’s post “Be All There” I shared about my full-time job and my lack of peace in leaving yet, in order to work full-time on our business. In 2012, when my husband and I first started Pelfreybilt Off-Road, God spoke this promise to me: “I will always provide” He didn’t say He would…
