She speaks...

This Sunday was my first time to give the talk at Fellowship Student Ministries (FSM).  Opportunities like this make me realize how much I enjoy teaching.  It's challenging, fun and when attempting to communicate Truth it's most definitely convicting.  Here are some highlights...

• James 2:1-13...about favoritism & loving others.
• Lauryn Dixon and Allison Beene (2 former Waco K-Life leaders and now dear friends) came to support me...so thankful for them! 
• At the beginning of my talk, I showed some funny pictures of in order for the students to get to know me more...they are below for your enjoyment.
• Shout out to my Dad for remembering my kindergarten teacher's name for an illustration...clutch.
• In staff meeting this morning it was fun to hear my team members' opinions/thoughts.  They were very encouraging, which was fun.  One constructive critique was, "you are a little too positive." It made me laugh, but its so true.  When talking about "evil motives" I should probably take a break from smiling.  

So...there you have it...first talk done and done. 

P.S. BIG "THANK YOU" to Garrett Perkins and all the sweet Waco K-Life folks who showered me with encouraging texts Saturday night...y'all are the best...for real!
