Abide to Love

Hey friends!

I've been praying through the Lord's invitation to prepare for babies, and I feel like many wonder what that journey may even look like.

Fiercely Obedient is our family's story of foster care, adoption, and missions. It has both the triumphs and the raw of our journey! We are just one story, but if you want to learn more, I'll leave the link here!

Fiercely Obedient invites you into the adventure of one family who has seen God do miracles in the most broken and vulnerable circumstances. From their journey into having 3 kids under 3, adopting internationally, fostering locally, and traveling the world, the Sotolongo’s adventure will bring yo....

💫 Fun Announcement 💫

Last weekend, while in prayer watching Communion America, I felt the Lord say: Release The Scribes 📜 🖋️ .

Immediately, the idea came to mind to have a Zoom with all of those who DESIRE to write a book, but feel disqualified, ill-equipped, or intimidated by the process.

Since 2021, the Lord has invited Ricky and I to create and write 10 + books, including kids' books, parenting collaborations, our family's personal testimony, and devotional curriculum. It has ALL been done from the invitation of the Lord, and we simply moved forward in obedience. The outcome: testimonies from many families who have learned to walk with Holy Spirit, children who have understood they can have a friendship with a very intimate God, and families who feel encouraged as they have taken steps to foster/adopt/live on mission together.

The Lord also invited us to learn not only the process of writing, but also editing, formatting, and the steps to self-publishing. We are by no means experts, but we have had the privilege of doing it over and over again:)

Many people have reached out with SO MANY QUESTIONS about the writing process, from "how to start" to "how to finalize", and we have had the honor of walking with some writers in these questions, encouraging them to OBEY the Lord even if they had no idea how He would do it.

I believe there are SO many who carry content and creativity from the Lord in their design, knowing they are supposed to write but not sure how to bring such a dream to fruition.

So, here is my proposition: On Sunday evening, 11/16/25, I want to jump on a Zoom with anyone who simply wants to hear our testimony of writing. ✍️ We will talk through practicals as well, but my prayer is that you step off the call EMPOWERED WITH BOLDNESS TO OBEY THE LORD and write. I pray through our very imperfect and weak yes, you feel fully qualified to start and trust GOD to do, by faith, what only He can do. Feel free to invite friends who you know may have this desire!

Finalizing some editing on Parenting with Holy Spirit vol. 2, and this quote from my friend, Lauren Tatum's, chapter is just blessing my socks off...

"But now more than ever, we need BOLD parents—willing to pioneer the way in education, community, and faith. The stakes are too high to remain passive. The time is now to rise up, remove barriers, and carve out paths that reflect God's original design. We get to choose as a pioneer parent to follow the world, follow the familiar, follow other people, or follow the Holy Spirit."
