The past few weeks have been challenging with work, children, and family. A few curveballs came in each of these areas of my life. My initial thought was what am I going to do? How am I going to handle this? The truth is, life brings me these challenges quite often. And usually my first
Tomorrow is my kids’ last day of school. This academic year has flown by. This CALENDAR year is flying by. As we were talking about all the things that they’re going to “miss” about school (which was a very short list), I started remembering my own anxiety that I had about their school year. That
In Titus 2:5, Paul encourages older women (that’s me ) to teach younger women (that might be you) how to ‘stay busy’ or as some translations put it, ‘maintain a home’…and girls, part of maintaining a home might involve a little cooking. But don’t worry…the recipes I post are always simple & do-able. Today, we

An open letter to all of those returning to church now… Hi there!! It’s so nice to see you! Here are a few things that you should know before you sit next to me. It’s so good to see your face! In case you can’t tell, I am smiling at you under my mask. Our
My son will be home from his first year of college at the end of this week, Yay!!?…which means I’ll be making all of his favorite dishes over summer break. Fettuccine Alfredo, Chinese stir fry, South Indian beef fry, chicken curry… But today (since he’s not home just yet), I decided to make one of
If you have figured this out already, I talk about the Bible a lot on social media. Well, there’s more where that came from! I had the opportunity to talk to my friend, Brandy, about why we should read the ENTIRE Bible. Yes, all of it. Genesis to Revelation. Even the genealogies. All of God’s
“The instructions of the Lord are perfect, reviving the soul. The decrees of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. The commandments of the Lord are right, bringing joy to the heart.
