I Choose Today to Trust the Power of the In-Between The Ordinary Series – Part 6

As believers, when it comes to Easter, we focus on Good Friday, when Jesus died for the sins of the world, and Easter Sunday, when He rose from the grave to defeat death once and for all. Both of these days deserve every ounce of our awe and celebration. They are the visible markers of love and victory—the cross where the price was paid and the empty tomb where death was disarmed. But what about the day in-between? What about Saturday? That ordinary, quiet, grief-stricken day between the heartbreak and the miracle. The day when heaven seemed silent and hope felt buried. The day most of us skip over… but shouldn’t. Because even though it looked like nothing was happening, everything was already in motion. Scripture gives us a glimpse behind the veil: “He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit. After being made alive, He went and made proclamation to the imprisoned spirits…” —1 Peter 3:18–19 Jesus didn’t wait for Sunday to start moving. He didn’t rest in death. He descended into the very den of death itself—and declared victory. To the author of death. To the powers of darkness. To the realm

They come from the sacred places of personal experience—the moments you didn’t think you’d survive but somehow did. That’s what this one is. In this episode of I Choose Today, I’m sharing a very personal part of my healing journey. A moment that changed me. A moment that brought me to the end of myself—and to the feet of Jesus. After the loss of my son to SIDS, I was broken in ways I didn’t yet understand. I was functioning, showing up, caring for my two-year-old daughter—but I wasn’t present. I was numb. Surviving. Until one ordinary afternoon when I completely broke. In the aftermath of an emotional outburst, I found myself sobbing on the edge of a bathtub, whispering the words, “Lord, help.” That moment became the start of something. It was the whisper that began a healing journey—a moment of raw surrender that cracked open the numbness and let Jesus in. Painful. But holy. This episode is for the ones still carrying pain. The ones who have walked through abuse, betrayal, loss, abandonment, rejection. It’s

I Choose Today to Stand in Victory

I knew stepping into obedience would cost something—but I didn’t expect the resistance to feel this fierce. Launching a podcast wasn’t just a creative step. It was a Kingdom step. And from the moment I said yes, I could feel the enemy trying to say no.  As I got closer to the launch date, the resistance intensified. Mere hours before everything was set to go live, I found myself sick, discouraged, and overwhelmed. Everything felt like it was falling apart—and honestly, I wondered if I’d even make it to release day. The attacks didn’t come all at once or with flashing lights. Some of them were subtle. Some came in the form of discouragement, self-doubt, or constant tech issues that made me want to quit before I even started. Others came as spiritual heaviness or emotional overwhelming moments that didn’t make sense until I looked deeper. Spiritual warfare is real. We often expect it to look like a scene from a movie, but more often than not, it’s in the weariness that won’t lift, the fear that creeps in after you’ve taken a bold step, or the doubt that whispers, “You’re not equipped for this.” But Scripture reminds us:  “For

I Choose Today to Worship in the Middle of the Mundane

The Ordinary Series – Part 4 Note: This post is Part 4 in The Ordinary Series. Part 3 will be shared as part of the upcoming podcast episode where I’ll dive deeper into what it means to be an ordinary kingdom partner. For now, I pray these words meet you right where you are. ⸻ I think the ordinary is the hardest place to live. See, the outcasts are looking for hope. They know they need saving. The mountain movers? They see the kingdom and are actively pursuing it. But those of us in the middle of the ordinary? We’re just trying to make it through the day. We’re folding laundry, checking off to-do lists, opening the fridge to figure out what can be made for dinner with whatever’s left. We bandage another scraped knee. Pay another bill. Run another errand. Facilitate another meeting. Nothing about it feels like kingdom work. Not to mention—I’m just an ordinary person living an ordinary life. And it’s in that space that the lie creeps in: This can’t possibly matter. This can’t be kingdom. But it does. And it is. Because God is in the business of using the ordinary in the ordinary to
