Celebrating My Dear Late Dad – Father’s Day 2022 Edition

I recently found this precious photo while organizing more pictures. This is MY DAD in his element! I don’t remember ever seeing this pic before so it’s such a gift.  I love how my Dear Dad is beaming and looking up and waving. I’m not kidding when I say my Dad LOVED marching in parades here and abroad. Here he’s representing one of the institutions he helped found and lead for some 20 years. He loved doing community work and being among people… Yup, That’s My Dear Super Extroverted Dad 💖

When my Dear Dad liked a picture, he made sure to print it out and have it enlarged. He did that with both pics in this post. Here’s a photo of me with a bouquet of flowers I picked while visiting my Dad’s childhood home. (I felt like Dorothy among all the poppies in “The Wizard of Oz” lol) .. .What joy my Dad had showing me around his hometown and what joy I had exploring where my Grandparents lived with their seven kids! So grateful for my trips with my Dad to his beloved Ecuador. As I’ve mentioned before, it’s eternally Spring in my Dad’s hometown. (Did ya notice my colossal sunburn that I mentioned I got from being at the parade during that visit? Yup, being by the equator without sunscreen will bake you in and instant if you’re not careful…)

So grateful for so many photos, videos, writings, sweet memories and more!

I’m amazed that my Dear Dad’s legacy lives on through my sister and me and mi familia … that’s part of the reason why I delight in sharing all these tributes to my Dear Dad.

If you’d like to learn a little more about my Dear Dad and some of our travels, check out, By Faith: Adventures and Reflections on Walking With God Here and Abroad.

If you’d like to read some more of my tributes and learn about some of what’s helped me through this grief journey, check out the blog post links below or Season 6 of the Abounding Faith for Today podcast. I pray you’ll be encouraged on your own grief journey.

Mid-Year Check-In

By God’s Grace, we’ve made it to the middle of 2022!

Now that it’s June, it’s a good time to stop and take stock of how this year’s been going.

Since there’s been lots of heartbreaking events going on in the world, it’s important to give ourselves time to process and grieve collectively and individually and to remember to watch and pray so we don’t get overwhelmed by everything going on around us.

It’s also important to reflect on the first half of the year and count our blessings as we head into the summer and gear up for the second half of 2022.

On my end, I’ve been blessed to:

  • Be working on some exciting writing projects and hope to have great news to share with you soon, including about Book 6 so stay tuned.
  • I’ve also been honored to teach some lovely women in my online classes through the New York School of the Bible. It’s always a delight to teach my students and surreal when I get to teach classes based on my books.
  • I also produced and hosted my 40th episode of the Abounding Faith for Today podcast. I hope you’ll check out the short and inspiring episodes wherever you listen to podcasts.
  • I also continue encouraging a lovely group of Christian women entrepreneurs during monthly online devotionals based on my Feisty Faith: Trusting God Day by Day 365-day devotional.

That’s just a glimpse of some of my year so far. I appreciate your continued prayers and support as I live out God’s call on my life in this season.

People are hurting. My hope is that my books, podcast, YouTube videos, blog and social media posts help to edify and encourage and inspire and empower you as you walk by faith, hope and love and dare to live your God-given dreams. If so, I’d love to know!

What about YOU?

How’s your year going?

Is it going as you expected?

I hope it’s been filled with more highs than lows.

Have you reached some of the goals you set out to accomplish at the start of the year?

If so, wonderful!

If not, no worries. There’s still time.

If you’re feeling stuck or feeling frustrated, I’d be delighted to help you.

You don’t have to go it all alone.

You can experience breakthrough and go from feeling frazzled to focused, frustrated to fruitful and fearful to fierce.

As your Life Coach, I’d be honored to prayerfully help you gain the clarity, confidence and courage to say yes to God’s call on your life.

I can prayerfully help you:

  • Discover your God-given gifts
  • Develop your unique giftings and skill set
  • Dare to live your God-given dreams

Let’s SOAR together this year!

Blessings to you on the second half of 2022.

Be fierce. Be faithful. Be fruitful. Be who God is calling you to be!

Abounding Faith for Today Podcast Ponderings – 40 Episodes

I’m still taking some time to celebrate and reflect on the 40 episodes of the Abounding Faith for Today podcast. Given all the heartbreak and stress people have been under these days (and years), I’m even more grateful I get to encourage, inspire and empower you via written, audio and video messages!

Over the years, I’ve interviewed celebrities, elite athletes, politicians and everyday people for prestigious newspapers and popular magazines. That’s what journalist get trained to do.

As a former journalist, you’d think it would be a given that I’d be interviewing guests on my podcast, but that’s NOT what God’s called me to do in this season. Nope, that would be the easier road for me.

It’s natural for me to ask people questions, but for me to do all the speaking?

That’s God’s idea.

And I’m glad I listened and that He’s made a way for me to host and produce this uplifting podcast.

I do pray you’ve been encouraged and inspired by the episodes.

I’ve shared some of my favorite Bible verses, excerpts from my five Christian living books and devotionals, thoughts on grief and loads of encouragement and prayers in the different episodes and during my Feisty Faith Chats. I’ve also delighted in sharing empowering messages during my Motivational Monday Coaching Messages.

You may not have noticed that I went silent for months following my Dear Late Dad’s move to Heaven. Grief will do that to you.

I didn’t have much to say and even wondered if I’d continue podcasting.

But God has called me to write and speak about Him.

And my Dear Dad loved that I was podcasting and delighted in hearing me speak at my events and in my videos and podcasts (he was a natural public speaker) and the rest of mi familia is also supportive so I press on …

You can check out this edifying and uplifting podcast anywhere you listen to podcasts including:

If you’re being blessed by the 40 episodes of the Abounding Faith for Today podcast, I’d love to know. Please subscribe, leave a kind rating and review and feel free to DM me with your ideas for future episodes.

I appreciate your prayers and support as I pray about the next season of the Abounding Faith for Today podcast.

People are hurting. I hope my podcast, books, YouTube videos, blog and social media posts help to edify and encourage and inspire people as they walk by faith, hope and love and dare to live their God-given dreams.

Tuesday Thoughts Series (Part 2)

I’ve recently started sharing some Tuesday Thoughts on Abounding Faith’s social media. From time to time, I’ll share some of them here. If you’d like to see them as they’re released, be sure to connect with Abounding Faith on Instagram. Blessings!

Are you busy building your empire or God’s Kingdom? Christian Creatives & Communicators and Audacious Dreamers & Doers and Ministers & Leaders, let’s remain Kingdom focused as we dare to live our God-given dreams 🙏

Tuesday Thoughts 🔥

“Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” (Matthew 6:10 NIV)

We’re called to be servants NOT superstars 🔥

Christian Creatives & Communicators and Audacious Dreamers & Doers and Ministers & Leaders, let’s keep this in mind as we dare to live our God-given dreams 🙏

Tuesday Thoughts 🔥

“Jesus called them together and said, ‘You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave— just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.'”(Matthew 20:25-28 NIV)

We’re works of art AND works in progress 🔥

Christian Creatives & Communicators and Audacious Dreamers & Doers and Ministers & Leaders, let’s remember this as we dare to live our God-given dreams 🙏

Tuesday Thoughts 🔥

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” (Ephesians 2:10 NIV)”being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 1:6 NIV)
