This weekend while I was reading the #WinoverWorry Bible reading challenge, I was thinking about how many of you have responded to this challenge! When I did the reading for yesterday, I remembered a couple posts I had written about anxiety and worry and the 8 Bible Memory verse cards…
I may or may not have been called a word nerd in school. You too? Whew, I feel better. Word puzzles and games are incredibly fun to me! I guess that’s why Bible verse scavenger hunts have always been a favorite of mine. What’s a Bible Verse scavenger hunt? 1. Read…

This week I received a reader email that said : Â 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…
Today I’m sharing a roundup of back to school prayers. If there is one thing I find myself doing more of during this back to school time of year, it is praying for my kids. And our family.  And myself. And their teachers. And the bus drivers….and…and…and. 🙂 I know…
