I was on the road this weekend and heard a "What If" song on a Christian radio station that really touched my heart. Turns out, the songwriter had spent a good part of the past 5 years supporting her husband who was diagnosed with a brain tumor shortly after they were married. Thank you, Laura Story, for this week's inspiration... What if the greatest trials of this lifetime are really blessings in disguise? What if every ...
You've been planting seeds. Dreaming big. Taking those small, inspired actions day after day. What if this is your time to shine?

What if we could stand back at the end of each day and marvel at the brilliance and splendor that we ...
Ever notice how easy it can be to reflect on challenges from days gone by with a sense of pride and nostalgia for the strength those times brought forth in you? What if you could appreciate those challenges in the moment, knowing that you are in the midst of a grand adventure that will inevitably lead you to higher ground?
