Hey blog friends, I’m ecstatic to share this news with you! Boom! I had an article published by Athletes in Action entitled Honoring God in Relationships. Truthfully, I wrote the piece with singleness in mind to answer the question, “How are we honoring God in singleness?”

If we want to honor God in our dating relationships, we first need to learn to honor God in our singleness. Read more…
