What is love? (now you’re singing the song, aren’t you? “What is love? Baby don’t hurt me….”) For the next two weeks leading up to Valentine’s Day, we are going to talk about it: love! It’s a word we ache to hear. It’s a word we overuse. It’s a word that signifies something amazing and […]
Confession: I became a Christian very early in life but in all honesty was NOT really super excited to do things “God’s way” because I was afraid that would be boring. My misconception was that being a Christian meant you were goody-goody and sure, you had your stuff together, but your life wouldn’t be fun […]
I was reading my devotional a few weeks ago, around the first of the year, and the words, “refresh” and “renew” kept coming up. And now, a few times this week, I have heard or had repeated the words “remain” or “abide”. What do these words mean? I looked them up in the Webster online […]
It seems like Christmas was a long time ago, but we are still in January, and so technically the year is still new, right? How are those resolutions coming? I hit a slight “doldrum” week last week with being off schedule, going through a little sickness, and then the snowstorm throwing us all off kilter, […]

Hey Friends! Today’s post is all about news, news, NEWS! First Item of Importance: My Whole30 Challenge is over today! YAY! A few more hours and I’ll be free and clear and headed towards the pumpkin pie –just kidding! I’ll be honest with you and admit that I’m excited that its over, but at the […]
Faith is a scary and beautiful thing. Here in this house, we are experiencing every day new ways that God is calling us to true faith, and it’s scary, but comfortably safe all at the same time. Walking by faith looks bonkers to the world, and people around you can question your sanity, but if […]
Today, we are talking about death – so much more cheerful than politics and voting, right?! In case you missed it, it’s fall here in the Mid-Atlantic. It’s kind of hard to not think about death during this season because things are dying all around us. It’s beautiful, yes, but they are dying nonetheless. Winter […]
I have a question for you: What if the worst thing to ever have happened to you actually wasn’t the worst thing to have happened to you? October is well-known to be Breast Cancer Awareness month, but, since 1988, President Reagan also declared it to be designated as Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month. If […]
Ok, this is not a feminist post, I swear. BUT I have always loved the stories of the heroines in the Bible who, whether they realized it or not, changed the course of history. The men were awesome and mighty and faithful as well, but I think its special that God also used women, and […]
