I have always been a planner oriented person. I love notebooks and pens and making lists. I love seeing items I have to-do written down. It helps me to keep order and meet the needs of my family and others while still getting time to do some of the things I love to do…
When our families go through battles with illness we know, as the mom, there seem to be no sick days for us. We may have quieter and more relaxing days as we battle through the illness, but the needs of the home await us until we are feeling better. Times of difficult trials can…
Inside: Why does it seem grumbling and complaining are so tolerated within our Christianity? Sometimes I think we tolerate it because we don’t always think of it as a sin since it is so commonly practiced among us. We’re talking about a topic that I pretty confidently say affects all of us. It’s our grumbling…
It’s not easy to stay connected with our spouses. It takes work. The busyness, everyday routines, and mundaneness of life can distract us from having more in-depth, more meaningful conversations together. My husband and I have worked hard to get moments alone to foster good conversation. We have more alone time together because our…
Inside: Seasons of waiting are good to see the Lord at work in our lives for our good and His glory. As I’m sharing this episode, I’m finding myself in a waiting room on the Lord, and it’s been a long one, and I don’t see an end near. It has reminded me that when…
On today’s podcast episode, we’re going to talk together about how to have a Christ-centered Easter celebration. We’re going to talk a bit about the importance of the resurrection, walk through the gospel, and share some ideas to help us point our family to the risen Jesus and His gift of salvation. We know…
I find comfort in the routines of the day. We all have areas of our lives that need to be taken care of on a daily basis. Having routines set in your day can make the whole day run smoothly, and those routines tend to become habits over time. I’m an advocate of having…
How many times at church do you find yourself discussing non-spiritual things? I love to talk about the Lord with others, but He doesn’t always come as naturally as I think He should into a conversation. As believers, our relationships with others in the body of Christ are unlike anything non-believers will ever experience….
Sharing with you today blog posts, podcasts, videos and much more that I hope will edify you in your walk with the Lord. To Read: Do You Exercise Like a Nonbeliever? – @Desiring God “Countless unbelievers experience and consciously enjoy the gift of exercise, but they do not adore Jesus or have the Holy Spirit….
I’m sharing a message with you today that I gave at a sweet friend’s bridal shower. I had the privilege of watching this young woman as a teenager grow into a lovely, godly woman who as I’m now recording this just got married this weekend. I’m excited for the next season the Lord has…
As believers in the Lord Jesus Christ not one of us would desire to remain a babe in the faith. We all desire to grow more in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. Spiritual growth doesn’t happen by osmosis – you have to be disciplined in putting God’s truth in your…
Did you notice we don’t just tend to coast into Christlikeness in our Christian walks? It takes planning to spend daily time with the Lord. Meeting with Jesus in the morning has become part of my morning routine that it just naturally happens almost every day. Time with the Lord has become a habit…
Inside: Forgiveness is a choice. It is not a denial that whatever hurt has been done against you isn’t real, but it does mean you need to face it and be reminded that not forgiving that sin against you is a sin in itself. As I’m sharing this with you today, I don’t know what…
It’s the start of a new year, and we all have goals and hopes, and dreams to accomplish this year. Some of us may have written them down, and others may just keep them in our heads. I know as a believer one of the desires that are always in the back of my mind…
To Read: On Being a Christian Woman in the Year of Our Lord, 2018 – @Hope and Stay “If women are breaking down doors in order to use their gifts in the church, the solution cannot only be to teach men to open the doors. I agree that that is part of it. … But…
I am a calendar and planner lover. I love lists and making goals and seeking to make the most of my days. I’m also aware of how easy it is to become overwhelmed, miserable, and exhausted when I don’t have a good plan in place to make the most of my days. I want…
Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. ~…
It’s not the gingerbread houses or cookies or special meals that will have the most impact on your family. It is the attitude of your heart. It is them seeing the Gospel lived out in your day to day life – even in the midst of busy seasons. As the busy Christmas season is upon…
