Life is hard, but living in guilt and shame is even harder. I know because I’ve been there. Sometimes we make mistakes that leave our life scattered in a thousand pieces. We ask ourselves: “How am I gonna get outta this mess?” But what if it’s not a mess, at all? What if it’s all part of God’s plan?
I know nothing happens by accident. I also know God can turn your mess into a message. There’s purpose in your pain. Let’s put the pieces back together to discover God's purpose for our life.
I met Jai a couple years ago. We were volunteers for the Food Pantry at Valley Vegas Church. We were on the same team - Team Jesus. We talked about Las Vegas.

Men’s Retreat: Forged in the Fire
If you haven’t been to a men’s or women’s retreat, I highly recommend going! It a time for fellowship, a time to hear God’s word, and a time to get closer to God away from all the distractions.

We were all placed on this earth for a reason. Some of us discover our purpose early in life, and some of us take a little longer. In this episode I share how I discovered my purpose.

And thanks to Ryan Leak who reminds us that even a woman at the well has a purpose, and can make a difference. “And say to Archippus, be sure to carry out the ministry that the Lord gave you.” Colossians 4:17
