I’ve had the privilege of knowing Amy Menter for over 24 years. Her heart for the Lord and reaching others with His love isn’t superficial. She has been an inspiration to me as I’ve watched her go back to school to get her Master’s degree and begin counseling women in an effort to point them to Christ.
Love – So Much More than a Feeling
What comes to mind when you think of love? Maybe a candlelight dinner with romantic music playing in the background. Or a bouquet of beautiful roses. I have to admit my natural default is to think about love in light of all those sweet things that make me feel valued. But the truth is – love goes beyond pleasant feelings, and what I think is good for me.
Intentional Growth
This month we’ve taken a look at a few aspects of discipline – remembering to keep God first and making sure our thinking is accurate. These are things we often choose to ignore. But if we want to grow in our relationship with Christ, they are things we need to consider.
Loving Outside the Boundaries
There have been many real life heroes in my past. I think of a former church member, sweet Kath, who loved Jesus fiercely even when her mind began to slip. She couldn’t remember names or facts but she spouted Scripture from her very soul, a perfect example of what it means when God says He writes His words upon our hearts.
