Integrate Your Family Newsletter

I hope you have made it through your week with glimmers of joy in the midst of all the busy. Between passing around sickness last week and tornado threats this week, we’ve been thrown quite the curveball to our usual rhythms. But mid-week we finally settled back in and I felt a huge shift in a positive direction.

How do I put this lightly? Not sure if I can, so I’ll just jump in.

There are some scandals in the Charismatic church that have gotten A LOT of attention recently. This was a world I was deeply steeped in for many years so it’s something I keep a pulse on, however unpacking that is a conversation for another day. Why I bring this up, though, is because if it wasn’t for some incredibly brave people who chose to share their stories of situations from years, even decades ago, the full truth would have never come out and many would still be in deception.

Now this is a high visibility situation that has a macro impact. But watching this unfold really got me thinking about the micro moments and stories of my life and how, when I don’t tell the full story of what really happened to me, I live in deception and allow others to also.

Tell yourself the truth of what happened to you. Your story really matters. For yourself, your family and others.
