Women’s Ministry – JANELLE DELAGRANGE

Shadowfeet

It seems unnatural to go dark when everyone, including me, has a platform. What a weird time in the world, right? (And let us all note the irony, considering I am here, right now, standing on a platform talking about something.) I get overwhelmed by American Christianity pretty easily. Actually, it’s the Christianity of womenContinue reading “Shadowfeet”

Behind & Before

Starting is the hardest part. The unknown frustrates me. The fear is tempted to spread like wildfire. I’m tempted to run. If we’ve ever had a lengthy conversation, you’ll know that I am a processor. I never respond without thought. I almost always keep my opinion to myself unless it’s warranted, and I feel safeContinue reading “Behind & Before”

Running next to someone whoContinue reading “Run, Girl”

They seemed to have a lotContinue reading “The Gospel in Her Face”

Rally: The Longing for Connection

We were talking about seasons of life, and I knew that I needed to share. My pounding heart and twisted gut prompted me. SoContinue reading “Rally: The Longing for Connection”

The Follow-Up

A couple of days ago I said this to my husband: “She is a tough act to follow.” She, being an author I look up to in a multitude of ways, who also just gave a powerhouse of a teaching about things I am also passionate about. I was about to write a post forContinue reading “The Follow-Up”
