Pain and Forgiveness: How to Apply God’s Word to Release Negative Emotions 

May 12, 2025 | By |

The act of forgiving does not come easy, for most of us it can be painful. Our fleshly instinct is to recoil in self-protection when we’ve been hurt. We don’t naturally overflow with mercy, grace and understanding when we’ve been wronged. 

Due to our inherent sinful nature, it’s critical as believers in Christ to gain a better understanding and remind yourself what the Bible has to say about forgiveness.

“Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.“

– Ephesians 4:32 (NIV)

One of the things I’ve learned in my S.A.L.T. Connection ministry studies is how important it is to forgive others and myself. By studying God’s Word and applying it in my life in the area of forgiveness; my burdens are becoming lighter as I cast all my cares to God. 

If you struggle with forgiveness, you too can learn how to apply God’s Word to your life to overcome this pain. Remember, forgiveness is not the same as forgetting or condoning the hurt. It’s about releasing negative emotions and choosing to move forward, even if you still have valid reasons to feel hurt.

Will You Be S.A.L.T.?   

April 11, 2025 | By |

Salt is used as a preservative to save meat and food from spoiling, as Jesus saves our souls from sin, death and hell. As a servant of Christ, you voluntarily set aside your personal rights in order to love, serve and obey the will of God.   

In joining one of The S.A.L.T.  Connection programs, you will be making a commitment to God to continuously study His word, apply it in your life and share with others. As an active participant of The S.A.L.T. Connection, I chose to serve God by pouring back into the program after graduating from the nine-month session in 2020.  

I’m not perfect; however, daily I seek Him, meditate on His word and share His word with others. There’s nothing better than an intimate relationship with Jesus.    

“You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.” 

– Matthew 5:13 (NIV)

  • Do you desire to help preserve the world, just as salt preserves food?   
  • Are you willing to be a positive and godly influential force, which can add flavor and goodness?   
  • Will you be S.A.L.T. by committing your time and enrolling in one of the two programs offered through our organization?  

If so, please click on the link to enroll. God will bless you for your obedience!

The Many Blessings You Can Find Studying God’s Word

March 10, 2025 | By |

In 2019, my dad was diagnosed with cancer right at the beginning of me starting my first S.A.L.T. class and I asked “Lord, how can this be happening right now when I’m trying to get closer to you?   

In 2020, COVID attacked the world; which was another distraction to keep me from studying the Bible. During my mid-term evaluation, Dad passed away. This was a crushing moment, but I clung to God’s Word and embraced His promises. I held my dad’s hand, read his favorite scripture, kissed him on his forehead, and prayed. It was then that I noticed a tear drop falling from his eye and I watched him transition to his new home with our Heavenly Father. 

Without the Word of God being poured into me by an amazing group of Godly women, I don’t know where I would be. They provided the education and resources to help me know God more intimately through studying His word, applying it in my life and gaining a desire to pour into others. God’s Word tells us repeatedly that we should meditate on it day and night.  Committing to studying the Bible and applying it to your life, impacts your intimate relationship with Him. It enables you to fully reflect God’s character. 

“Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips, meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful.” 

– Joshua 1:8 (NIV)

The S.A.L.T. Connection is a great place to start in having a better relationship with our Heavenly Father. We offer two programs to best suit your spiritual needs: a nine-week and nine-month program. Learn more about the programs on our website and don’t be afraid to sign up and watch God transform your life. The Triune God is the Christian belief that God is one being in three persons: the Father, son and Holy Spirit.

Open Doors: How to Recognize God’s “Symbol of Opportunity” for Your Life

February 16, 2025 | By |

A door is a symbol of opportunity, mainly concerning spiritual advancement and spreading the gospel. How do you know that an open door is really from God? 

  1. The door that God opens will never contradict His Word. 
  1. The door that God opens will always be accompanied by confirmation. 
  1. The door that God opens will require you to depend on Him. 

The door has been opened for The S.A.L.T. Connection, and you can see him moving, never contradicting His word, providing confirmation and requiring us to depend on Him for all of our needs. There’s nothing like the love of our Good Father in Heaven. As the world changes around us, we need God more than ever. We have been called to serve Him, advance His kingdom and use our gifts for Him. 

Revelation 3:8 (NIV) states: “I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.” 

Because of the faithfulness, commitment to keep God’s word and remaining loyal to Him; God keeps His promises to reward The S.A.L.T. Connection. Our ministry continues to pour God’s word into women, so they can pour into other women. 

To continue to stand on the promises of God, we ask that you support us in expanding our mission in our local communities of Collin, Denton and Grayson counties. Would you please help with a one-time or reoccurring monthly donation and the opportunity to be one of God’s soldiers on the battlefield? Choose your payment option by clicking on the donation button below.

A Giving Spirit That Pours for More

December 7, 2024 | By |

Over the past 10 years, The SALT Connection has been pouring into to women through the ministry of teaching, training, discipling and mentoring.  This is the way that we’ve demonstrated God’s love and compassion for others. 

And now the Lord has given to us.  We have been blessed to move into our new office space at The Hope Center, so that we can now hold classes and future events.

Giving is a central concept that involves more than just monetary donations. The Bible teaches that giving is a form of worship that reflects God’s character as a generous provider.  As we continue to pour out the little we have, we will continue to experience the more God has for us.

Deuteronomy 15:10 (NIV) states “Give generously to them and do so without a grudging heart; then because of this the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to.”  Remember God is pleased with those who give willingly and joyfully than those who give out of obligation. 

God has given us the opportunity to expand our ministry, and with your monetary support we can further our mission in our new office space in 2025.   Please click on the link below to give your generous donation so we can continue great work for the Kingdom of God.

Celebrating 10 Years of Pouring S.A.L.T.

July 29, 2024 | By |

Jesus identifies the disciples as “the salt of the earth”.  In Matt 5:13 (NIV) Jesus says:  You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.

He’s also telling us, that as believers, we should influence the world by the way we live and act towards one another.

Living as salt and light is a continuous journey. It requires daily surrendering to God’s will, an open heart to love and serve others, and a commitment to live out our faith authentically.  It’s by living this way that The S.A.L.T Connection has made a profound impact on the lives of those around us and brought glory to God.  

Next month, we will be celebrating our 10-year anniversary. Many of you have played an important role in the impact of this ministry, and we have so much to celebrate!

Since our inception, The S.A.L.T. Connection has provided Christian education and spiritual mentoring to more than 50 women with a graduation rate of over 84%. We have also introduced many women to Christ through community events and our partnership with other non-profit organizations. Would you join us as we continue the assignment that God has given us?  To help; please click on the link below to give your generous donation so we can continue Kingdom Business that is pleasing to God.

Listen For God’s Voice

February 1, 2024 | By |

Most people want to hear God’s voice when they are facing a decision or when life has beaten them down.  The primary way God speaks to us is through His revealed and written word.  Proverbs 3:6 (NLT) states “Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take”. 

Pray and ask God for wisdom then wait patiently to hear His voice.  Be intentional about reading His word, pray without ceasing and most importantly be quiet and listen for His voice, not your own.  When you hear God’s voice respond eagerly and obey Him. 

The S.A.L.T Connection Ministry teaches women that the primary way to hear God’s voice is through reading, studying, `and applying His Word.  Our ministry extends the opportunity for you to partner with us to help pour God’s Word into others.  Please donate by clicking on the donate button below.

Biblical Generosity

December 4, 2023 | By |

Learning to be generous with God naturally leads you to be that cheerful giver God loves. In 2 Corinthians 9, it reminds us that God is perfectly able to replenish whatever you give, so you can be generous on all occasions, which will result in thanksgiving to God.

God doesn’t want gifts motivated by a sense of duty or obligation. He wants us to give out of joy and compassion. The S.A.L.T. Connection ministry continues to teach God’s word and uplift the Kingdom of God. We seek other Christian-minded people, who are excited about kingdom building. We extend the opportunity to you to join us through your generous donations. Click here to make your charitable donation.

Remember God loves a cheerful giver. Our generosity should be founded in love, not duty.

Trust God

June 9, 2023 | By |

To trust in the Lord means more than believing in who He is and what He says. With everything we go through in life: pain, loss, tragedy, and grief; we must trust God. Get to know God personally to truly trust Him. Proverbs 3:5-6 (KJV) states “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto your own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths.”

The Lord is a Provider, a Protector, a Healer, and your Best Friend. Everyday rely on Him only. Pray without ceasing and know that with Him everything is possible, because God can do all things. After praying, listen to the small still voice inside of you and obediently follow the instructions given to you.

The S.A.L.T. Connection Ministry is a faith-based nonprofit organization that provides education to help Christian women learn how to study God’s Word for a victorious life. As our ministry continues to trust God to make provisions to help meet the need of the community, we welcome like-minded nonprofit organizations to join us. You can make a one-time donation or setup a recurring donation by clicking here.

New Year – New You

February 21, 2023 | By |

New beginnings are around you and within you everyday. You don’t need to wait for a clean slate. God is in the business of making all things new. His healing brings restoration beyond understanding, no matter where you come from or what you’ve done.

God calls us to let go of “former things,” so we can cling to our new identity in Christ.

Isaiah 43:18-19 (NIV) states: Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.

God is daily making things new in The S.A.L.T. Connection Ministry and we ask that you will partner with us in kingdom building, teaching God’s Word to others and spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ. We are thanking God in advance for “like-minded” non-profit organizations that will join us. It’s a New Year and on your journey to becoming a New You, join us and click here to make a one-time donation or setup a recurring donation.
