by Kristi Lemley on December 30th, 2021

She was such a strong German woma... Read More

Attitude of Gratitude
by Kristi Lemley on November 29th, 2021
From the heart of Dr. Kristi LemleyLet me begin by saying Happy Thanksgiving!If you are like me, sometimes I focus on what is not right instead of what is or what I don't posses instead of what I do have.

by Kristi Lemley on November 4th, 2021
When I was broken, I had a difficult time realizing how much God loved me. I thought my situation revealed a different characteristic than what the Bible stated. How could God say He loved me when I was hurt so badly?The enemy, the devil, is the father of all lies (John 8:44). He wants you to think that God has left you, thereby triggering you to question, “If God really loved me, then why did He ... Read More
