As the holidays draw near, I feel a stirring deep within my soul — not merely for the glow of Christmas lights or the aroma of pumpkin pie wafting from the oven, but for something far more profound. Gratitude. Reflection. Hope. And perhaps, a quiet call for peace in a world once again at odds…

Life or Death: The Choice That Defines You
Let’s be honest — the world’s loud right now. It screams at you from every direction: “Do what makes you happy.” “Live your truth.” “There is no right or wrong.” But what if I told you that “your truth” could be the very thing leading you to destruction? Sin doesn’t show up in chains —…

Circle Seven of Hell is by far the most violent and brutal—a place that haunted Dexter long after his vision ended.

In 2018, my husband Dexter nearly lost his life to sepsis, a vicious infection that consumed him after a bout of Salmonella poisoning. What looked like a simple sickness became a nightmare, and as his body collapsed under the weight of the infection, his soul slipped into a place darker than words can carry. I…

Country Girls Can Survive
There’s a grit that runs deep in the veins of a country girl. It’s not just about boots on the ground, farm chores, or knowing how to wrangle life when it comes at you hard—it’s about love, loyalty, and devotion. Devotion to God, to family, and to this great nation we’re blessed to live in.…

Into the Inferno: Testimony and Truth
As I delve once again into The Inferno by Dante Alighieri, it isn’t in honor of Halloween or mere curiosity about medieval poetry. It’s a reflection on profound spiritual truths that continue to echo through time. My studies in English at Maryville University have deepened my appreciation for ancient and medieval literature, especially works like…
