Why Does It Seem Like The Unholy Prosper More Than The Holy? 

Why Does It Seem Like The Unholy Prosper More Than The Holy? 

True there may be individual cases where someone who engages in unethical or illegal activities may experience short-term gains, these gains are often temporary. 

But on the other hand, individuals who consistently exhibit ethical behavior, honesty, and integrity can also experience prosperity and success. But its important to note that the definition of "bad" and "good" can be subjective and can vary depending on cultural and societal norms. 

Have you ever asked yourself this question; if so have you found an answer?  Listen to this week's as Tara shares her view on this.

Grace is Sufficient

Are you giving the same grace you expect to receive?  Not sure take a listen to this week's show and see if you are. 


Let's talk about it:  To give grace means to show kindness, mercy, forgiveness, or generosity to others, even when they don't deserve it or haven't earned it. It involves extending compassion and understanding towards others, and choosing to respond with love and empathy rather than anger or judgment. Giving grace can take many forms, such as offering a listening ear to someone going through a difficult time, forgiving someone who has hurt you, volunteering your time or resources to help those in need, or simply choosing to respond to a difficult situation with kindness and compassion. Ultimately, giving grace is about recognizing the inherent value and worth of every person, and choosing to treat them with respect, kindness, and empathy, regardless of their actions or circumstances.

Can You Trust Your Feelings? Pt. 1

Be careful of your feelings..

We were created to move in truth and understanding; not feelings.  Feelings will get us caught up and we will often miss opportunites to move beyond what hurt us or disappoint us or even the things that make us happy but are keeping us from our next move.
