2023: Lessons Learned

This might sound weird, but, while I cannot believe that we are really about to wrap up 2023 in just a matter of days, I also can believe it. You see, 2023, for me, has felt both incredibly short and also very long. It flew by in the blink of an eye and, at the…

Are you refining your gifts?

In my last blog post, I focused on the concept of “dying empty”. Read the blog here for a more detailed breakdown and exploration, but to quickly summarise, to die empty is to use up all of our gifts, pouring out everything God has deposited in us and accomplishing everything He intended for us to…

Beginning, once again

I listened to a podcast many years ago where the speaker was talking about maximising your potential and “dying empty”. He painted a picture of the grave being the richest place on earth because of the sheer amount of untapped talent and potential that is buried there, forever trapped within the human vessels that carried…
