What J’s Up to These Days
- In 2010, I got breast implants, and this past month, I got them removed. Based on my recovery, explant was the right choice for my health going forward. You can read more about my reasons here: Are Breast Implants Bad for You? Now I don’t believe that implants, breast or otherwise, are necessarily bad, but we should inform patients better and screen candidates for immune issues that could cause problems later on. Anyway, I’m feeling much better!
- Now that I’m healthy again, I’m eager to travel more! Wanna invite me to speak in 2022? Check out my speaking page and/or shoot me an email.
Biblical Inspiration for the Coming Month
After the Last Supper, Jesus told His closest followers, “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” (John 13:35). We believe Jesus’s command applies to Christian community today.
What if it’s true of marriage as well? That is, what would people conclude about our discipleship to Christ based on our marriage?

When I think deeply about this, I’m more aware of all the times I don’t treat my husband the way I should. I consider all the opportunities I miss to show him kindness, respect, affection, and covenant love. I ask God to intervene and prompt me to do better.
Not only will my marriage reap the benefits of sowing such good seed in our relationship, but my marriage then becomes a larger witness to the world of what I believe about righteousness, redemption, and love.
What about your marriage?
