Current read: Living Resistance

This book feels like a deep breath. Curtice weaves together Indigenous wisdom, spiritual reflection, and personal storytelling to explore what it means to resist a broken world by choosing wholeness, community, and presence—every single day.

It’s not just a book—it’s an invitation to live slower, listen deeper, and love more intentionally.

I’m underlining so much!

DEMONS ARE SPIRITUAL SQUATTERS. They don’t need ownership… they just need access. Let that sink in. The enemy doesn’t care that Jesus already paid for your life. He doesn’t care that your spirit belongs to God. He’s not trying to own the house… He’s just looking for an open door.
