Coming in August! Homeschooling Series + Free Homeschool Planning Pack

I haven’t spoken much about being a homeschool family here, but in August I’m excited to be bringing you a short series on homeschooling in preparation for the upcoming 2014-2015 school year. If you have any questions or topics you’d like me to discuss please let me know and I will do my best to […]

You Are Held

Sometimes it’s so easy to get caught up in this crazy busy world we live in and yet somehow amidst all of the people we know and see, we still feel alone. How is that possible? From our family to friends, co-workers and church members, to sports team parents, we are surrounded by people no […]

Being Real: Remarried

Going from married then divorced, to single mom and next unwed mom, my life has seen some difficulties. Some of them were of my own making, due to stubbornness, pride and selfishness…others not so much. The next step on my journey was not expected and most definitely a “God thing”. Getting Remarried After you’ve said […]

Relationships: Family

I was a Navy Brat and most of my life we lived far away from our extended family, so my dad, mom, brothers and I were and are very close. We did everything together and tell each other just about everything. I am thankful for the closeness of my family to this day. I believe […]

You Are Gifted

Each one of us are gifted. God chose specific gifts for you and me, and though my gifts might be different than yours, they are no more or less important than yours. Sometimes we get so caught up looking at the gifts that someone else has, that we forget that we are gifted as well. […]

Being Real: An Unwed Mother

It’s pretty safe to say that I could be one of the poster children for a life that turned out nothing like I had planned. From relational abuse to a bad first marriage, to divorce, then a single mom and next becoming an unwed mother. Anyone Can Become an Unwed Mother Being raised in a Christian […]

You Are Forgiven

The greatest gift that anyone can receive is salvation through Jesus Christ, from the moment we accept that gift we are forgiven. Forgiveness is something that each one of us needs. Throughout our lives we all do or say things that are wrong, unkind, unloving and sometimes down right mean. For all of those actions […]

Being Real: A Single Mom

Another position that I never thought I find myself in was being a single mom. After my first marriage ended in divorce though, that is where I found myself.  Having been married less than 2 yrs. and with a 3 month old son, I was single and a mom. Thankfully I was not alone. My […]

God’s Design for Marriage

The first relationship in this series that we are going to look at is marriage. Our marriages are to be the most important relationship that we have on the earth. No other human being is supposed to be more important than our spouse. Yet, all it takes is a look at the world’s marriage statistics […]

You Are Enough

With everything that we are called to do each and every day, and the many times we fail at doing things correctly, it is easy to feel like we aren’t enough. Whether it be that we aren’t good enough, don’t accomplish enough, aren’t beautiful enough, on and on the list could go. The truth of […]
