Can you speak truth into the darkness with courage and tenacious persistence? Listen soldier, the truth matters to God and so it must matter to us. We need to stand, speak the truth, regain ground, and protect our rights, our families, with tenacious ferocity. We are here to talk about the truth; the nitty-gritty truth. The good, the bad, the ugly truth. Listen in!

Farewell for Now
In this final episode of Grit, Grace, & Coffee Grinds I close out with a message to motivate my listeners to employ all they have gained the last three years and encourage them to be salt and light.

Jesus Prays for the Lost
Listen up! One soldier who is enlisted, and fully invested in the Army of God, and prayerfully, faithfully, and staunchly protecting their divinely assigned post has the indisputable potential to change the world. Find out how....keep listening
-
Jesus Prays For Us
He prays for unity and oneness and 17:11. He prays for protection from evil in John 17:15. Lastly, he prays sanctity and holiness in John 17:17. Harmony is important because it makes the church a positive example to the world and helps draw others to the Lord, it renews and revitalizes his...
-
Jesus Prays for Himself
I truly belive God wants us to be honest with ourselves, with him, and in our prayer closet. Every prayer that Jesus prayed is deliberate and intentional. If only every soldier had the confidence and courage to talk to the Father the way Jesus did. Remember, we all share the same father.

Prayers Jesus Prayed: A Prayer When Troubled
We find our next prayer that Jesus prayed in John 12:27. It says, Now is my soul troubled. And what shall I say? ‘Father, save me from this hour’? But for this purpose came I unto this hour. Father, glorify thy name.’ Then a voice came from heaven: ‘I have glorified it, and I will glorify it...
-
Prayers Jesus Prayed: a prayer of authority
It wasn’t hard to see my destiny laid out in front of me. It would most likely show itself in the form of a youth pastor‘s wife or an evangelist’s wife traveling the country, encouraging women and teen girls to live their lives every day for the glory of God and to hold the line for Jesus. That’s...
-
Prayers Jesus Prayed: A prayer of Thanksgiving
Due to popular vote, we will be kicking off a series today called prayers Jesus prayed. We will be exploring each time Jesus prayed throughout his ministry, the significance of the prayer, and, of course, how we can apply it as we grow in grace and be more effective in the army of God. The prayer...

Sword of Truth
R.C. Sproul said it best, You dont have to give up your intellect to trust the Bible. You have to give up your pride. Our greatest weapon against the enemy is truth. Only by the truth can we truly see heavens perspective, listen with a humble heart, and actively participate in battle. We...
-
Shield of Sight
Faith reveals that God is doing more for his people then we can ever realize through sight alone. When you face difficulties that seem insurmountable, remember that spiritual resources are there even if you can’t see them. Look with eyes of faith and let God show you his resources. If you don’t…

Disruptive Peace
We all long for peace, but sometimes it's hard to find. This podcast episode explores how to bring peace in the most difficult of situations. We dive into the Armour of God, and discuss gospel shoes as a way to walk in peace. Disruptive peace is a powerful tool to help restore relationships, and...
-
Desperate for the Breastplate
The breastplate. It protects our heart, lungs, and stomach…all organs which are targeted by the enemy for either instant kills or slow deaths. If the devil can’t make you question your faith and security in Christ, he will go for broke and hurt you, wound you, and beat on you until it affects…
more -
The Belt of Joy
Ephesians 6:14 says, Stand, therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breast plate of righteousness. We often view this verse in light of a specific piece of the armor of God called the belt of truth. Paul implores his fellow soldiers to have their loins girt about…
more -
The Helmet of Salvation
The helmet of salvation. The piece of armor, the foundation of our armor rather, on which hangs the rest of the armor of God. Quite frankly, from a spiritual standpoint, without the helmet of salvation you cannot take up or put on the rest of the armor. I didn’t give a lot of thought to the…

Okay, God, Okay!
Praying for others has stopped me in my tracks more than a few times. Whether it was simply not knowing what to pray for or, if I'm honest, lacking the motivation to pray for this person or that person, I crossed them off the list with guilty dismissal and skip to the next. Hear me out. I wanted…

The Truth of December Past
As an advocate for truth, I chose to stray off the beaten path during our holiday months and share some nitty gritty truth about Americas’ history. The anniversary of these events occurred within either October, November, or December respectively. So before they get re-written Orwell-esque style,...
-
Truth of November Past
As an advocate for truth, I chose to stray off the beaten path during our holiday months and share some nitty gritty truth about Americas’ history. The anniversary of these events occurred within either October, November, or December respectively. So before they get re-written Orwell-esque style,...

Truth of October Past pt. 1
As an advocate for truth, I chose to stray off the beaten path for the next three months and share some nitty gritty truth about Americas’ history. The anniversary of these events occurred within either October, November, or December respectively. So before they get re-written Orwell-esque style,...
-
Truth of October Past Pt. 2
My husband and I have been reading Orwell’s 1984 together and, although every characteristic of the story does not align with our present day, the majority of the similarities are striking as well as horrifying. One of these similarities is the job of the main character, Winston Smith. He,...

But These Devils
And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer…

Coffee Christianity
Today’s episode is leaning heavily on the whimsy and lighthearted because the upcoming episode is just, well…tough. Its been tought to write, tough to edit, tough to record, which begs the question, will it be tough to listen to? As my pastor sometimes says in regard to a message that isn’t quite...
-
The Devil's Benefactors
Satan banks on our ignorance. Sadly, he finds stacks of cashiers checks he can cash in the amount of how much we don’t know. Soldiers in God's army are the ones that need to have the answers. We should never be the ones who claim ignorance. How many times must God tell us to study? Sure we can…

The Great Comparison
Of course you can’t make it very far into a biblical study of trees and bearing fruit until you make it back to Psalm one which was made famous in churches all across the country by Ron Hamilton who made it into a song. As soon as I give you the first four words I know you’re going to start…

Every Moment Matters
I tend to see, and understand, spiritual warfare with the lenses of Hollywood and the media. And what I mean by that is I look at at spiritual warfare just like a physical battle in the sense that there are months of planning and months of strategizing and training and then there’s a huge battle...
-
Identity Theft
Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us Hebrews 12:1. Our besetting sin doesn’t have to hold us back and, in fact,...
-
Go Brush Your Teeth
There are conversations that my husband and I have together that float around, sometimes gather evidence, and sometimes are just left for the mind to peek at curiously. Then there are the conversations that we have where my husband tries to convince me that I should “really do a podcast with this...
-
Angel Encounters Part 4
This is part 4 of Angel Encounters and also the last episode in this particular series. They have been fun to tell, as well as convicting. God cannot be limited, but my lack of faith limits him regularly. What would God do on our behalf if we just had the courage and faith to believe that he CAN?...
-
Angel Encounters Part 3
Remember that story in the New Testament when Paul is sleeping in a prison cell and an angel comes to wake him up? Then the Angel leads him out of the prison cell into the streets and basically disappears after that. Then Peter goes and finds the people who are paying for him. Well that’s...
-
Angel Encounters Part 2
I believe that a lot of Christians today, including me, can relate to the perspective of the man named Gehazi in II Kings 6. He was Elisha's servant and even though they were surrounded by a dedicated, relentless chariot army of fire, he could not see it. His truth looked very different from...
-
Angel Encounters Part 1
Oh to be like Elisha; full of simple faith and total unhinged trust in his God. Elisha basically says don’t worry about it, there are more that be with us than be with them. And his servant Gehazi was just a little taken aback by that response, I’m sure! Like obviously you have no idea that the...
-
Buy the Truth
Proverbs 23:23 says “Buy the truth and sell it not and also wisdom, understanding and instruction.” At first glance, the obvious way to buy truth is, of course, through books or texts, messages or songs, or paying for a degree from a university, but the nittier, grittier truth here is that the...
-
Yield
Why does prayer always seem to be about us? Prayer has to be the 3rd most talked-about topic in Churches across the country, right under how good the coffee was that day during Sunday school and what the new mask mandates are. And those who practice prayer, speak or preach on prayer, write books…

Asking, begging, or claiming?
What we are currently seeing, and experiencing, in our world today, is the aftermath of a 50 year organized, strategic attack on the Church of America. Political podiums and gospel pulpits were once used for standing against the enemy, speaking truth to the masses, and protecting that sacred…

Birthday Squared
This weekend is a little bit different because it’s really special. It’s not just any other Saturday. Tomorrow is two birthdays for me; birthday squared, as my husband would say. I have this physical life to celebrate and also my eternal, heavenly life to celebrate. And right now I’d like to take...
-
My Praising Closet
I’m going to borrow the P.R.A.Y acronym for the next few episodes to provide a rudimentary guide for us as we link arms and walk down this road to better understand praising, repenting, asking, and finally yielding. And after reading Anne Voskamp’s book, One Thousand Gifts, there was one…

Psalm 91
After reading the book Psalm 91, by Peggy Ruth, on a road trip we took last year and reading first hand how proclaiming the scripture aloud heals the body, soul, and mind, do yourself a favor and take a pause in your day right now. You may need to come back to this particular episode, but…

Spaghetti Prayers
The unlimited potential of prayer as seen through the promises in the Bible is staggering, as God moves into action in the lives and situations that we bring before him. Yet, little praying is done. The prayer life of many people has been discouraging and frustrating. Unfortunately, the basic...

Conversations with God
The unlimited potential of prayer as seen through the promises in the Bible is staggering, as God moves into action in the lives and situations that we bring before him. YET, little praying is done. WHY? Because the prayer life of many people has been discouraging and frustrating. WHY? Because…

Burn the Ships
In legalese, lawyers say that silence is consent. So when an attorney doesn’t defend his client faithfully and cover all his bases or address all the issues so his client can decline the charges, that gives the plaintiff’s attorney wiggle room to work with. Voicing the truth is important right…

Affo-what?
“I have been driven many times upon my knees by the overwhelming conviction that I had nowhere else to go. My own wisdom and that of all about me seemed insufficient for that day.” That is a quote by Abraham Lincoln and I’ve been thinking about the message of this statement a lot lately....
-
The French Vanilla Secret
This is a podcast intended to compel the army of God to love and protect the Church. Folks, love is a battlefield and sometimes we just need to pause, sharpen our sword, drink a good cup of joe, and remember that we are not fighting in this war alone. We all want to make an impact for the Lord…

A Shot in the Dark
Today I am going to speak to a hotly debated topic and discuss what I have noticed and seen from other Christian evangelical authors and influencers when they address this topic in a public format, usually on their social media platforms. It utterly disgusts me and makes me sick. I have tried to...

Dirty Chai Anyone?
Warning! Sober, melancholy, thought-provoking questions coming your way! Have you ever been challenged to write a life statement that made you think about what you would want to be written on your tombstone? When the Lord takes you home and other people reminisce about their time with you, what...

Trusting Your Armor Bearer
Growing up in church, I was of the belief that spiritual warfare only occurs around the individual intensely fighting over a strong addiction like drugs, alcohol, or pornography. Demon possession could also manifest itself, occasionally, to those heavily engaged in witchcraft, black magic, or...
-
Silos or Soldiers?
The only reason that one soldier can make such a difference, in dutifully guarding their wall, is because of his connection with every other enlisted soldier. Once you have enlisted in the Army of God, you are not, I repeat NOT a silo. You immediately become part of a supernatural organism with…

God is Always Everywhere
The idea that God is always, everywhere presents a basket full of mixed emotions that I have to sort through. Because we can’t physically see the person of Jesus, I think I have placed this piece of theology into my “I’ll get to it later” basket until I make time to fully understand it. But let’s...

One Soldier Can Change the World
One soldier who is enlisted, fully invested in the Army of God, and prayerfully, faithfully, and staunchly protecting their divinely assigned post has the indisputable potential to change the world…and I can’t wait to tell you how!

No Applause Needed
At first glance, the concept of ‘guarding our wall’ can appear a little opaque. Are there certain hours I need to keep watch? Is my family supposed to take turns guarding our wall throughout the daytime and evening hours? It almost seems like a job you would need to don a uniform for. Well, as a...

Calendars, Graphs, & To-Do lists
As a soldier, it’s good to be reminded of our purpose, to have our goals written down, and small steps to see those achievements through. I love lists, calendars, highlighters, and day planners. And I especially love achievements. But, sometimes they get the better of me and interrupt God’s...
