A Story of Stillness (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Hello JOMC Readers! I hope you are enjoying a wonderful Wednesday. Today’s post looks a bit different than our usual guest submissions or personal essays from me. I wanted to share with you a quick update to our publication schedule. For those who have been reading and following JOMC for a while, you may remember that last summer I took a season away from weekly publishing to rest, recover, and remember how to be present “in the present.” The time away was not only good for my soul, it allowed m

Today’s guest, Ashley Larsen, transparently shares how she persevered through the literal and emotional financi
The Power Of Story When You Stop Commanding (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How many of us have entered a season of transition expecting a particular path or outcome, only to find ourselves “lost” in unfamiliar territory? Whether planned or unplanned, change can be difficult to navigate and often takes much longer than anticipated. These delays can prompt us to question if, or how, God is working in and through our lives. However, like the wilderness seasons we read about in the Bible, God is often doing some of His best work during these days. He is sowing seeds of fai
