Happy new year friends and family! I promise you, I did not know. Had I known, I would have taken a moment to ask for a drum-roll. From the title of this article, maybe you can tell that we are starting off the year (or continuing, since I had the urge to shout "happy new…
Hello friends and family! Before you get into this one, I have a quick request of you: turn to your YouTube/ Spotify/ iTunes and search Mary did you know by Maverick City ft Chandler Moore and Lizzie Morgan. Now press play, adjust your volume and read on! It's only right for me to announce that…
I prayed to God: Help me experience you. And then, silence. I think. At least that’s what it feels like. I feel empty. Not in the common sense of the word - I don’t feel hopeless, or lonely, or sad; instead, I feel like a room that was once full of furniture and is now…
I don't really remember when this conversation happened but I remember the year it began: Winter of 2016. In a previous post (Celibacy: Establish Your Why) I mentioned how I told the girls from my cell group that when I felt like I had sinned against God my first instinct was always to move as…

Hello friends and family, welcomce back to Fervor! It's quite evident that I'm not as stressed out as I was when I wrote the previous entry, Celibacy: My story. The world did not end, as I had anticipated it would, and when anxiety promised to end my life, I found so much comfort in Psalm…
I was 15 years old when I sort of decided that I wanted to wait, 16 when I first sort of gave a reason as to why I wanted to wait. I didn't believe in my reason but I had heard it long enough that it almost fell like truth from my mouth. I remember…
Hello Friends and family! It's been a month since you last heard from me and I had left having promised to potentially finish off the song selection sunday insert that featured J-cole's leaked song Javari. Multiple times, I've tried to sit down and write this but I just couldn't. Instead, there was the constant buzz…
