The roadblocks to growth and joy come when we forget the bigness of God & instead make people bigger than He is.

Dare to be brave today, and trust that when you extend your wings, you will fly.

Our task shouldn't be punishing the villains in our lives, but enlarging the God who heals us from all wounds.

We grow when the walls press in. We grow when life steals our control. We grow in the darkness.

A broken person understands she needs rescue, and she depends on God to resurrect and deliver. And she also understands that even if God chooses not to deliver, His ways are higher and more amazing then what we can fathom.

We cannot let the haters of this world define us. Or frighten us into no longer being ourselves.

A hopeful book that moms will relish, Blue Like Playdough is an honest, peel-back-the-covers look at the creative way God shapes us through childhood and parenthood. Tricia Goyer explores her own weaknesses along the journey, revealing her desire to serve the God who forms strength and joy and perseverance within her. A compelling, fresh read.
