Lacing Together 13 Years of Marriage with Faith

Last updated on: June 6, 2024 at 2:12 pm By Artisha T. Bolding

The truth of the matter is my faith has been the thread that has held my marriage together for 13 wonderful years. I found out that the symbol for 13 years is lace. It’s beautiful and delicate; it’s special. Lace represents the intricate weaving of two lives into one, and let me tell you, sometimes that weaving process has involved some pretty serious stretching and pulling. When I think about our marriage, Ephesians 4 comes to mind: “‭Always be humble... Read more

Navigating Life’s Storms with Jesus

Last updated on: May 28, 2024 at 1:43 pm By Artisha T. Bolding

There is a powerful message in the heart of the Gospels. Actually there are tons of them. But the one I want to look at today is Jesus’ call to become fishers of men. This call is intertwined with themes of navigating life’s storms with Jesus as our friend and security. In Matthew 4, Jesus called out to Peter and Andrew, “Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” This simple yet profound invitation marks the beginning of... Read more

Passion & Friendship

In discussing passion and friendship some people may say these things are totally opposite, or on a good day they can come together in your significant other or your romantic relationship. I’m here to tell you that these two go together all the time. And especially so when it comes to your Christian life. Even though I grew up in church, I’m just six years into this brand new life with Christ- this real, consistent, abundant life that we don’t... Read more

Priceless: Embracing God’s Value of You

Over the past week my Dad taught several lessons that at first seemed not to connect, but in the end came together in a beautiful picture. In fact the tapestry that he painted spoke to me in a way I that didn’t see coming. I hope this doesn’t come off as a mini-sermon, but I want to share with you my take on a message that is close to my heart. That message: the immeasurable value that God places on... Read more

Water Walker

There’s a parable that you are probably familiar with about a drowning man. Water is rising and the man comes up on the roof praying to God to save him. Someone comes by in a rowboat and the man says, “No, I’m waiting on God.” Someone comes by in a motorboat and the man says, “No, I’m waiting on God.” Then someone comes by in a helicopter and a third time the man says, “No, I’m waiting on God.” The...

It Was All A Dream

The story of Dreamgirls is more than music. It’s more than show business. It’s more than lights and sequined dresses. It is about life and hearbreak it’s about finding yourself. And believing in what you bring to the table as well as what you deserve. The word deserve always sparks interesting thoughts for me. Because if we are honest as a believer, we have to know that things that we have said, done, and thought deserve to be punished. We... Read more

Searching For Real Love

Last updated on: February 22, 2024 at 4:23 pm By Artisha T. Bolding

Understanding real love through the lens of Christianity often involves navigating a seemingly conflicting journey of selflessness and sacrifice. It’s like trying to find your way through a maze blindfolded, armed only with a compass called faith. Picture this: you’re on the subway, and just when you think you’ve got a seat, someone elderly shuffles in. Real love nudges you to offer your spot with a smile, even if it means enduring the rest of the ride standing, swerving and... Read more

Gratitude & Grace

Gratitude is a powerful emotion that can transform our lives and the lives of those around us. It can help us appreciate what we have, recognize the blessings that God has given us, and share them with others who may not have the same access to resources that we do. For the past few weeks I’ve been organizing an event to give myself, as well as a few family members and friends an opportunity to serve some of our brothers... Read more

Life More Abundantly

Today, I want to talk to you about this thing called life more abundantly. You know, the kind of life that Jesus promised us in John 10:10, when He said, “I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” But what does that mean, exactly? And how do we get it? Well, let me tell you, it’s not about having more money, more fame, more fun, or more stuff. Trust me, I’ve tried... Read more

Somewhere along the way I have turned into the old woman that you see who wears certain things, like slips and pantyhose. She says certain things like, “Hey baby, make sure you have a coat on when you go outside.” I have become that. LOL. Something else I often question is, what we’re going to do with all of this technology and all of this access we have now. We are exposed to so much and most of the time... Read more
