IAMFORGIVEN – What does it mean?

IAMFORGIVEN – What does it mean? What does that even mean? What am I forgiven of… and who forgave me? I was hoping you would ask. In 2009, I started IAMFORGIVEN because the fact that I am forgiven has been a complete game-changer for me. Forgiveness has literally saved and changed my life. And if…

Where have all the godly women gone?

Where have all the godly MEN gone?

It seems that people are getting married a lot later in life these days. I am constantly talking with people about life, dating, marriage and being single. Most in their 20’s and 30’s and I have began to ask the questions of why? Why are so many people not taking the plunge into the covenant…

Ever THOUGHT about CHEATING?
