Welcome back to the continuation of my story, A Time to Retreat with Jesus: Bloom Again. If you haven’t read it yet, I invite you to go back and start there. This Bloom Again Virginia Beach retreat with Jesus was filled with so many meaningful moments that I simply couldn’t fit them all into one column. So, I decided to share more of what God did during this unforgettable weekend. As an example, in one conversation I had, a really... Read more

A Time to Retreat with Jesus: Bloom Again Virginia Beach

No one who attended Bloom Again Virginia Beach arrived there by accident. Bloom Again, Virginia Beach was a women’s gathering held in late February 2026, and from my perspective, the Bloom Again Virginia Beach retreat was even better than any of us dared imagine. The Bloom Again Virginia Beach Retreat with Jesus was created as a space where women could step away from their busy lives and rediscover what it means to sit at the feet of... Read more

Faith and AI: Choosing Discernment Over Debate

Last updated on: February 17, 2026 at 8:57 am By Teresa Nichols

0 Comments

I am undertaking a controversial topic today, but not with the intention of swaying anyone’s particular stance on the subject at hand. One fact we can likely all agree on is this: AI technology is here to stay — and discernment will be necessary for all of us as we navigate how, or if, we use it. With that statement comes a myriad of other questions that arise as we ask ourselves whether it’s something we should learn more about,... Read more

God Chose Me First—Jesus Is the Proof

Christmas is almost here, and it truly is my favorite time of the year! From the moment the decorating begins, there’s a magic in the air for me. I love bringing out the storage boxes that are filled with decor, and beautiful items collected throughout the years. Precious memories flood my mind, as I pull things out, day by day, and joy fills my heart. My home transforms into a Christmas wonderland of sorts, and I can’t help but smile!... Read more

Called, Chosen, Commissioned: Rising For Such a Time as This

I began writing this column as I was sitting on an airplane, returning home from a women’s event called Bloom Again, in Kansas City. I attended with my daughter, Kaitlyn, who knew that with my fear of flying, I’d likely never go alone. You see, I am not an enthusiastic flyer, no matter the destination! I had no idea she would go, so I was truly surprised by her wonderful news! My heart was rejoicing at spending time with her,... Read more

Have you ever found yourself in a season where you just feel like you are “spinning your wheels,” as the saying goes? Well, I have, and it’s happening now!

God has been doing some amazing things in my life recently and I wanted to share some of it with my readers! I actually had the incredible privilege of speaking at a first time ever event called Bloom Again. It was a powerful women’s event held in Augusta, Georgia in early May. This event began as a plan to have a east coast launch for the authors of the new best selling devotional: Before She Knew Jesus. However, Becky Vasquez... Read more

Gratitude, Amidst Angst and Empathy, in the Storms Aftermath

Last updated on: March 17, 2025 at 4:20 pm By Teresa Nichols

As I awakened this morning, it was with a heart full of gratitude, though it seemed I barely rested at all. The impending warnings of possible tornados and damaging winds for the night before, made it extremely difficult to sleep soundly. You see, for many days, the news was pre warning residents in multiple states that a terrible weather pattern was taking shape. Conditions were gearing up for it to be unlike anything we had ever seen in our lifetimes.... Read more

Spiritual Warfare: How the Enemy Uses Division Against Us

Last updated on: February 12, 2025 at 9:12 pm By Teresa Nichols

0 Comments

The word “division” has been on my mind a lot lately, and it is something that has upended homes, churches, governments, and quite honestly all known human relationships. Sadly, the enemy is really good at stirring up conflict in the simplest things, and knows the areas that trouble us enough to each take a stand, knowing it will cause division. I believe he has an agenda that first includes isolating us from others, and then steals our focus away from... Read more
