Consider this: to the non-builder, most of the emphasis and excitement is focused on the design of the house, the building, or the structure they're looking to build. But how much attention and consideration is given to its foundation? When dreams are dreamt, are they ever about building the foundation of their dreams? Does the planning and the laying of the foundation ever outvalue or at least balance the esteem given to the architectural design, the interior decorations, or whether there's enough money to build out the man cave or that dream kitchen with its high-end appliances?
In our world, it's assumed that the builder knows how to plan, prepare, and build the necessary foundation while we get to focus on the more "important stuff." But in the Kingdom of God, the responsibility of building the foundation has been entrusted to us. We are the builders, and the completion of the foundation is in our hands.
I invite you to join me on a journey through Scripture, where we will discover how the spiritual foundation we choose to lay sets the limits for the kind of structure we can build.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
