This month, I get to share about a ministry in Brazoria County that is connecting with the community in a deeply impactful way. True To Life Ministries is on mission to deliver hope that leads to measurable life change by guiding people toward long-term stability. They do this by connecting with people right where they are, showing them their value with every interaction, and helping them overcome the obstacles that lie in their path.

God’s Plan We misstep. We make mistakes. But we are never out of God’s sight. Jeremian 29:11-13 - For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. God wants us to succeed.

Instead of asking my mom, I just slipped one into my pocket. I stole it… it was just the beginning of my rebellion — just kidding. I wasn’t t

Speak Out 2 Timothy 1:7-10 - "For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline. So never be ashamed to tell others about our Lord…. With the strength God gives you, be ready to suffer with me for the sake of the Good News. For God saved us and called us to live a holy life.
