The Blush Network | Spiritually challenging the way young women think.
I grew up as the daughter of a Southern Baptist Pastor and I desired to be just a little bit bad. I didn’t want to go absolutely crazy, but I did enjoy being just a little crazy. In High School I thought about drinking or getting high, but I was so freaked out about being the one [...]
Rebellion is something you hear about semi-regularly if you attend church much. Rebellion could be against God or man/the world. Let me tell you a little about my rebellion since I’ve had my fair share of rebellious moments against God and my family. But, this is one is epic, so let me give you this [...]
Stomp Around! I haven’t always given the power of prayer the credit it is due. I grew up in a conservative church where prayer was important. We certainly prayed, but mostly in church services or before and after dinner. I’ve looked at prayer completely differently in the past six to eight months, experienced miracles, and [...]
Nobody can argue with your personal story. My son Jude and I went fishing recently. I would like to say we caught several whoppers, nearly broke our fishing poles, and tipped the boat over, but, we didn’t. We caught just one catfish – not too small, but small. We had a blast and I loved [...]

So, how many of you have ever wanted something so much that you wept? I’m not talking about just crying – you can well up when Ariel’s father, Triton, gives her real legs so that she can be with her prince in The Little Mermaid. No, I’m talking about ugly crying, when your tears burn [...]
I was headed to the bathroom this morning to shower when I heard moaning. I paused and listened for a minute as the moaning continued. I headed downstairs to see my dog, Scooter standing and shaking because he didn’t want to sit because he was trying to stay alive. Recently, Scooter has become very sick. [...]
I sat across the table from a beloved person in my life as they told me a sweet story of someone that they admire. They told me of the drive and passion this person has for the Lord and the hard times he has faced as a result of standing firm in his faith. My [...]
The rise of social networking has brought with it a bombardment of new platforms from which to share our faith in Christ, and in many ways it has proven an apropos and effective medium for evangelism and discipleship.
