Monday is here and you know what that means! It’s time for the Bible Reading Challenge check-in. I’m a little behind on the reading schedule, but the quality of reading has been wonderful this week. How are you doing? The book I’m writing on perseverance is coming together and I’m…
This week I received a reader email that said : I have looked all over for a Gospels Bible reading plan for kids, that is age appropriate and fun….I finally found it here!! LOVE IT! The only thing is, you are missing Mark?? Any chance it’s here somewhere and I…
Morning! I’m a little late getting our Whimsical Wednesday blogger linkup party going. Sorry about that! In case you missed my Facebook post yesterday, I felt I should share it with you. I try to keep the Facebook page focused on encouraging you and meeting your needs. But I…
Life sure can get crazy, can’t it? Whether you are facing a snowball effect of circumstances or one extremely overwhelming situation, that feeling of being consumed to the point of breaking is terrible at best. It’s so easy to resort to panic when we feel overwhelmed. Our minds start…
Happy Labor Day! I’m writing to you from Cleveland today. My sister-in-law and brother-in-law celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary today. They are such an incredible example of love and maturity in their relationship and family. I feel so blessed to have been a part of their beautiful celebration. How’ s…
Alright. I’m beginning this post with a confession. I have not been very good…ok, I’ve been really horrible at writing thank you notes since this spring. There. Whew. I feel better. I have a slew of thank you notes (is slew a word? it sounds good…) from summer events that…

It’s Monday! How many of you have children starting school this week? This is our second week of school, so we’re settling into a bit of a routine here. I’m not such a fan of the school year, honestly. I love summer so much. But like it or…
When I was young, my mom kept Bible word search books and crossword puzzle books on the end tables in our living room. I’ve always loved word search puzzles! And I’ve found that my kids love them too. Upon attending the Logos Women in Ministry summit a few weeks ago,…
With the start of school, our family has the opportunity to evaluate how to begin the mornings well. Sometimes the morning doesn’t seem like the best time to spend with God- especially if you’re not a morning person. I’ve confessed to you before that I try to be a morning…
