It’s Okay to Have Those Days | Anchor Points | Ep. 40

Just One More Step Forward | Anchor Points | Ep. 41

Have you ever felt like you just couldn’t take another step? Like you’ve reached your limit, but you still have more in front of you? In today’s Anchor Point, I’m sharing a simple but powerful reminder about pressing on. Not in a way that’s overwhelming, but in a way that’s steady and grounded. Sometimes it’s not about big leaps. It’s just about one more step. And in those moments, we’re not alone. Scripture (NIV): Philippians 3: 13–14 — “Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." Reflection Questions: Where in my life do I feel like giving up? What does “one more step” look like for me right now? How can I rely on God for strength in this season? 👉 Join the conversation: What helps you keep going when things feel hard?

It’s Okay to Have Those Days | Anchor Points | Ep. 40

Do you ever have those days where you just feel off? Maybe you’re harder on yourself. Maybe everything feels heavier than usual. In today’s Anchor Point, I’m sharing a personal look at those moments—and the simple reminder that having those feelings doesn’t mean something is wrong. Sometimes we just need space to feel, process, and bring it to God. Because we don’t have to sort everything out on our own. And those days don’t define us—they pass. Scripture (NIV): Psalm 34:18 — “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Reflection Questions: How do I usually respond when I’m having an off day? Do I allow myself to process my feelings—or push them aside? What would it look like to bring those feelings to God? 👉 Join the conversation: What helps you reset after a tough day?

Stop Saying “Just” About What You Do | Anchor Points | Ep. 39

Have you ever caught yourself saying, “I’m just a…”? Just a mom. Just a teacher. Just a fill in the blank. It sounds small—but it says more than we think. In today’s Anchor Point, I’m reflecting on how easily we minimize what we do, even when those roles carry real purpose and meaning. Because there’s nothing “just” about the way God has placed you. What you do matters. Where you are matters. And you don’t need to shrink it to make it sound more acceptable. Scripture (NIV): Colossians 3:23 — “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters,” Reflection Questions: Do I tend to minimize what I do or who I am? Why do I sometimes downplay my role? What would change if I saw my work as meaningful and God-given? 👉 Join the conversation: What’s something you’ve been calling “just” that deserves more value?

Who Are You Letting Guide You? | Anchor Points | Ep. 38

Have you ever asked someone for advice only to realize they were just as unsure as you? Sometimes we lean on people who mean well, but don’t have the wisdom we really need. In today’s Anchor Point, I’m sharing a simple reminder of why guidance matters—and how important it is to seek wisdom from those who’ve walked the path before us. There’s something comforting about learning from people who have experience, perspective, and a deeper foundation of faith. We’re not meant to figure everything out on our own. And we don’t have to. Scripture (NIV): Proverbs 11:14 — “For lack of guidance a nation falls, but victory is won through many advisers..” Reflection Questions: Who do I go to for guidance in my life? Am I seeking wisdom from those with experience and faith? How can I be more intentional about learning from others? 👉 Join the conversation: Who has been a wise influence in your life?

The Kind of Friend Who Tells You the Truth | Anchor Points | Ep. 37

Have you ever had someone tell you something you didn’t necessarily want to hear… but needed to? There’s a difference between someone who keeps things easy—and someone who truly cares. In today’s Anchor Point, I’m sharing a personal story that highlights how real love sometimes looks like honesty, even when it’s uncomfortable. Because the people who care about us most aren’t the ones who ignore what’s hurting us. They’re the ones willing to gently tell the truth. And that kind of love reflects the way God cares for us too. Scripture (NIV): John 8:11 — “No one, sir,” she said. “Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Go now and leave your life of sin.” Reflection Questions: Do I have people in my life who are honest with me in love? How do I respond when I hear hard truths? How can I show that same kind of care to others? 👉 Join the conversation: Has someone ever told you something hard—but helpful?
