Encouraging People in God's Word

H i, I’m Nancy, former blogger from “Begin Again With Nancy.” If you already follow me, you know that I began blogging at the time when the Covid19 pandemic emerged. It was a time that seemed to be changing life the way we knew it. As people were mandated to isolate, the Lord inspired me to stay in touch with my client base at the hair salon. So, I started writing a beauty blog that also encouraged people to get into reading the “Word” (God’s Word) in order to cope with the new normal that Covid19 brought.

After five years of blogging under that title, “Begin Again With Nancy” no longer feels relevant, however, my purpose is the same: With my faith, I will mentor, teach and serve; encouraging others, writing about God’s Word. Helping them find their beauty in Jesus, and see themselves the way He sees us.

Welcome to the transition of Begin Again With Nancy to Why The Word. I hope you will continue this journey with me as I navigate through the Word of God to help me cope with all of life’s situations—the good, the bad and the ugly. Hopefully you’ll be encouraged to get into the “Word” too.

“In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God.” (John 1:1)

“The Word of God is alive and active, sharper than any double edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.” (Hebrews 4:12)

God with us

After the last prophet (Malachi) of the Old Testament, people walked in darkness without a word from heaven. And some still do today, when they don’t have to.

Don’t Give Away Your Authority

Too often we allow our feelings to control us. However, through faith in Jesus and obedience to all he taught, we are given authority over the enemy…

Paris Mountain

There is something sublime about a mountain. They appear formidable, evoking feelings of awe-inspiring wonder, as they show off the splendor of God’s creation.

Pest Peeves

Satan will do whatever works to draw us away from God, to cause our faith to waiver, and in “my most recent situation”, to cause anxiety.

Southern Hospitality

In a recent trip to South Carolina, I saw and felt the genuineness of southern hospitality. There was a juxtaposition between northern and southern cultures.

Understand the Devil’s Plan

My mom’s excuses for me were not only for my sister’s benefit, but for mine as well and maybe her own too. Or so I thought.
