I've got extremely exciting news! For the month of July I am linking arms (through cyberspace) with a group of girlfriends to blog for the entire month of July. We have each committed to blog every day of the month on our respective themes. My theme is "Purpose". So many things have led me to this theme for July -- but more about that throughout the month.

Please join me each day in July to hear what God is saying to and through me about Purpose. And join my blogger-sisters each day as well. You may not know them personally, but I'm sure their blogs will hold many treasures for you as well.

Here's a list of their respective July themes and blogsites:
Monique Zackery (our visionary) - 31 Days of Victory: www.moniquezackery.blogspot.com
Michelle Discavage - 31 Days of Wellness: Mind, Body & Spirit: www.chelled.blogspot.com
Sheryl Griffin - 31 Days of Hope: www.sherylgriffin.blogspot.com
Jennifer Lain - 31 Days of Freedom: www.parentpassion.com
Beckah Shae - 31 Days of Love: www.beckahshae.com


I can't wait to share all that's on my heart. If I were a big potbelly stove (okay, don't imagine me quite that round), I'd be literally boiling over right now!

I'll be talking with you soon!

Purposed For Him,


Carla

The Ambassador: His Rise, Fall and Rise Again

Image
I recently began a Facebook Group called "A Pastor's Wife's Garden" with the goal of connecting hearts with other pastor's wives like myself. The idea for this group came totally from the Lord one day while I watched a recording of an interview on CBN. The topic of this interview: William Branch, also known as The Ambassador, also known as Duce, and his wife discussing the challenge of his emotional affair with another woman. To give a little backstory, Duce is a Christian hip hop artist that co-founded and led Cross Movement, a rap group that took the Christian world by storm in 1996. All original founding members, including Duce, grew up in Philadelphia. Having earned a Masters degree in Theology from Dallas Theological Seminary -- graduating with honors, by the way -- he began co-pastoring Epiphany Fellowship Church, a growing and vibrant multi-ethnic church in Philly. That is, until he fell into this emotional affair. At that point Duce was asked to leav...

Five Things Not to Say to Adoptive Parents

Image
The Hendricks Clan "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me."  Did you grow up hearing that adage? I don't think I reached age ten before I realized how false that saying is. The scars of sticks and stones heal with time. The scars of hurtful words? Many of us will take our share of those scars to our graves. If you have adopted, you've heard your share of ill-timed/insensitive questions and comments. Many will come from the lips of perfect strangers. This can be annoying, but in the end, feels rather harmless. Yet sometimes the offenses come from the people closest to us -- parents, grandparents, siblings, long-time friends. Some of those words have left scars on your soul. And maybe on the souls of your child. This post is not only for those of us that have adopted. This post is for our family members, our close friends, our fellow church and community members. This post is for our loved ones who may be very happy for us, b...

New Wine, New Wineskins

It's 2012 and I am ready for CHANGE! I'm starting here at my blog site. First of all, you may have noticed a change in my blog title. It is no longer Sojourner of Truth , but Deep Waters . This name came to me months ago as I've spent a lot of time reading other blogs. I love the variety of blogs out there. Folks are sharing great recipes, DIY projects and funny anecdotes. Now while I love food, beautiful home decor and funny stories, I'm not that kind of blogger. I love sharing the deeper truths of God's Word through my blog. I love giving my readers a peek into what God's teaching me from His Word. I love taking everyday issues and shining the light of God's Word on them. And I love presenting the Word through stories that make the bible come alive. After all, that's what Jesus did throughout the gospels. So that's what Deep Waters is about. (Note the change in address too: www.carlaadairhendricks.blogspot.com.) Every Tuesday and Saturday we...
