"Never place a period where God has |

Rev. Denise Cordova is an ordained minister who has been in the pastorate for over 14 years. It took Denise 35 years to discover that she had wasted decades living in self-doubt and self-condemnation, so she has made it her life’s mission to remind everyone that God’s Grace, Love and Salvation is available to ALL people. Denise believes that the Bible was written to empower people and was never meant to be used as a bat to beat people down. Denise is driven by the numerous stories shared by “the least of these,” some of whom left this earth not knowing how much God loves all of us. It is Denise’s desire to loudly proclaim God’s acceptance and nurturance of every single one of us.
“Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,”

My brother was involved in a heated debate with someone who continues to judge me. Within the course of the discussion my brother described me as a "non-partying square." My first inclination was to defend myself. I thought, "I can party with the best of them!" When I was much younger, I would have read that as a putdown and a challenge. I would have gone out and partied just to show him, and anyone else who thinks I'm square, that I can have fun like the rest of them (you)! The truth is, but for a few years in my life, I've never really been much of a partier. I've always been a very responsible, taking-care-of-others kind of person.
I recently attended an event and one of the panelists mentioned having a "personal brand." I had heard of corporate brands such as "God is Still Speaking" for the United Church of Christ, but not a personal brand.
I began wondering what my personal brand is and what do people think of when they see me? Is my personal brand "grumpy?" How about "judgmental?" Maybe "complainer?" What about "self-condemner?" What is your personal brand?
We are told in Matthew 5:14-15, that we “are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.”
