June 6, 2020 By Kona Brown Leave a Comment

What word would you use to describe your faith in this season? In our online prayer meeting at church a few weeks ago (yes, cause that’s a thing now), a live poll indicated that more than 70% of people felt that their faith had grown during lockdown! Yay for them, but if I am honest I know that I have struggled to stay within that 70%. I wanted to. But it felt like a fight. A … [Read more...]

What every believer should know about the Coronavirus Pandemic

April 20, 2020 By Kona Brown 1 Comment

With handy journaling prompts to help you dig deeper I’ve read a lot about what people think this global pandemic means. I am sure you have too.

People are often surprised to hear that 3 of my closest friends (shout out Vicki, Nina and Reneé) are friends from my Primary School, High School and Varsity days.

What I told my kids about being ordinary

June 8, 2018 By Kona Brown Leave a Comment

When did ordinary become a bad word? Was it when social media started making even a grilled-cheese-sandwich dinner look "extra"ordinary? (Thank you Amaro filter!) Instagram feeds full of “Don’t let average describe your life” #mondaymotivation has all of us drinking the cool-aid, and unwittingly buying into a side order of perpetual dissatisfaction with it!
