    I was eating breakfast, just taking it all in, and wondered how I even got here. Sitting in El Porvenir, Chihuahua, a little town south of the Texas-Mexico border, I had just learned we have been under cartel surveillance since we arrived the previous day. I have been traveling to Mexico for several months to…

    One of our dancing queens asked me, “Hey, can we have a retreat just for us?” The question arrested me. I knew it would take a team and due to our budget, I knew it would have to be cheap. I told the Lord I would do it if He provided a retreat setting for…

    I walked into the club with my friend and was greeted by the doorman. I had been praying for this first strip club outreach for a year, and now I was inside the club with gift bags in hand. I had painstakingly put the bags together the night before. Christmas gift bags loaded with makeup,…

    I remember the first time in ministry that I didn’t know what to do. It was five years ago when this ministry was just a thought, and I found myself in a car with a young woman traveling from Tallahassee to Panama City. As she was in the midst of detoxing from IV Methamphetamine use…

    Ministry of any kind requires practicing self-care, making sure your heart and mind are right before God and others. “Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life” (Proverbs 4:23). Self-care is not just a stereotypical day at the spa.  It can feel quite the opposite at times. It means going…

      As I’m sure everyone would agree, it’s incredible that we were chosen to do this ministry. How many times have you thought about how awesome it is that we get to be the ones going to the places most Christians won’t go? That we are the privileged ones to go and love women in…

      Ah, the sweet spot. I think you know which one– the thrilling period prior to and just after an outreach when the spiritual battle feels so palpable you consider picking up your battle gear, charging out and yelling, “FREEEEDOM!!!” These quickly vanishing days of maintaining the newsletters, social networks, and various responsibilities associated with…

      What does it mean to be Jesus in a strip club? Well, what does it mean to be Jesus anywhere? The truth is that being Jesus is reflecting love.  Jesus is love. A long time ago the Holy Spirit called me to, Go and make disciples of all nations. (Matthew 28:19) He continued by…

    “Not all who wander are lost” is a line from the poem All that is gold does not glitter, written by J. R. R. Tolkien for The Lord of the Rings. That famous quote is thought-provoking and it should be. I know that in being transparent with what is in my heart today will cause me to point fingers at mainstream Christianity.…
