“God investigate my life; get all the facts firsthand. I’m an open book to you; even from a distance, you know what I’m thinking.” Psalm 139:1

Have you ever gotten lost in reliving and rearranging experiences, some regretfully and others with a full-on plan as to how things would have turned out if you had done it differently? Well I have! The truth is, my mind processing has become a ‘brain activity marathon’. And as much as this journey of life has become a long distance run, I’m thinking that I more than likely have a few more ...

"I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out - plans to take care of you not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for. " Jeremiah 29:11

One of the most fearful experiences is falling without having anything to grip.  What intensifies that fear is not having any idea how long it will take to actually reach bottom.  If you have never had to deal with this scenario, I invite you to encourage your interest, simply because this might be an actual experience for you at some point.

Putting a profile to this scenario, let’s imagine you are perhaps an over 60 female, possibly single or widowed, educated and have served society with vibrant impact.  However, you are now being placed in a category that has ...

Have you ever wondered why some people who have obviously attained a pinnacle status in their professional lives still feel dwarfed and unfulfilled?  As difficult as that is to understand, statistics have proven that some of the most highly successful corporate executives are confessing desperation for a greater fulfillment.

Take yourself for example: Your interest in reading this article was triggered by the caption – A Higher Calling.  And although your initial intent was to browse instead of read, you realize that your interest is now fully sparked. You are squirming with conviction! Here you are, male, perhaps ...

“The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they while their companions slept were toiling upward through the night”. This famous line from the 18^th Century poet and educator Henry Wadsworth Longfellow may not rank as the most impacting statement in the 21^st Century.  However, if you are a woman dissatisfied with where you are in life and longing for something more, then this article on ‘Invoking Potential’ with a poetic opening statement may just excite your interest.

Here you are, single or married, possibly working on your career, classified ...

The truth is, what's visible and touchable are realistic facts that no amount of reasoning can discount. Facts captivate our attention, arouse our desires, energize our discussion and establish our conclusion. Our responses to what's factual have no bearing on the underlying component or the ultimate outcome of the actual fact. Although facts can be dangerous and destructive, they can also be logically conceived and are visibly available.

So, you may ask, 'what's the difference between a fact and the truth, and how does God fit in both elements of reality?’  My answer to both parts of that ...

Persevering Women In Leadership - Who are they?

WHY does the subject of women in Leadership still present itself as a primary point; oftentimes, triggering static conversations and itchy debates?  Will it ever go away? My question is, why should it? If this subject still irritates stubborn mindsets and incarcerates the progress of women, then it should remain a subject of primary importance until God’s purpose is acceptably identified.

Women are natural connectors born to be nurturers and find no difficulty in identifying with pain, passion or purpose. For this reason, powerful spaces should be made to connect and enrich their ...

    It is a genuine pleasure, privilege and honor to share my relationship with Arlene as testament to her character personally and professionally.  Arlene values her relationship with people and is incredibly invested in keeping her word.  Through many years of friendship living in Miami, sharing the joy and challenges of life, Arlene has proven rock solid and a keeper of her word.  We have traveled overseas together on mission trips where Arlene had oversight of the missions team.   I was present when difficult decisions were necessary and Arlene exhibited these values.

Arlene Hoffman is a woman pleasant to describe. She is as strong as she is tender. She is as wise as she is teachable. She is also as quick witted as she is patient. She is an eloquent orator and a keen listener, taking in as much as she gives.

This sounds like a confounding and complicated person at first glance. Someone may read that and feel intimidated.

I have known Arlene for over 5 years. I have known each of these facets of her character and am equally fascinated by each distinct part. I have relied on her strength ...
