Horse Homilies, Tough Times

Hanging On for the Long Haul

November 24, 2020June 1, 2022 Megan Bean

Some things are worth persevering for. In fact, most worthwhile pursuits require perseverance. And there are cases in which perseverance pays off.

Something New

August 28, 2020June 1, 2022 Megan Bean

Maybe you've felt similarly in seasons of major change. Maybe you've stood on the line between familiar and foreign territory and wondered: How do I handle the newness? How can I possibly move forward from endings into beginnings?

About Me

“Through Jesus, God invites us to follow Him on an adventure full of His presence and destined to end in our good. When we accept His invitation, we get to experience Him and His work. Along with the hardships, we get to witness and receive His goodness. And despite our losses, we end the journey richer than before.” I’m back! This year has seen quite a bit of growth in my writing and in what I unofficially call my writing ministry. I’ve faced my own insufficiency many times. In fact, the longer I live, the more I realize how limited I am—physically, mentally, and spiritually. 2022 has been quite a year. I’ve been through some rough spots as well as exhilarating ones. A few weeks ago, God gave me an unexpected blessing. Not unwanted or unimaginable, but unasked for and unthought of. While writing this month’s blog post, I was struck by how little the Bible deals directly with disability. It throws us a command or two and a handful of prophecies. But mostly, it tells stories featuring people with disabilities, in which disability is seldom the true focus. October is #PastorAppreciationMonth! If you’re a churchgoer, take a few minutes to thank your pastor for their service and commit to praying for them year-round. Most people who know me know I love horses. One symptom is my decades-old Breyer model horse collection.
