🟫 Trail Entry:
I was graciously invited to the Spokane Dream Center to share a message — one that grew out of a short devotional from The Old Gray Moose: Devotions for the Wilderness Journey.
The message was warmly and well received by the congregation, and I was deeply moved by their openness and encouragement. I have even been invited to return and to share more from my devotional series in the future.
🎥 If you would like to listen to the full message, you can find it on YouTube through my Linktree, where you’ll also discover additional devotionals and resources:

Why This Matters
Moments like this remind me that the Word of God travels beyond the written page. A devotional that begins quietly, in prayer and reflection, can become a living testimony that speaks to the hearts of others. This is why we write, why we share, and why we continue to carry the message of grace into every space God opens before us.
I am grateful for these wonderful opportunities which God opens for ministry and care.
🌿 A few quiet minutes. One sacred Word. A moment of grace.
