I talk about community all the time! I am so thankful for the community we have built in all the different places we have had the pleasure to live in for a period of time. I know how important it is to be in community and I know how much more deeply that is built when you open up the… Read More

A Record Of God’s FAithfulness
I have been studying along in the book of Joshua for the last 9 weeks and lately I have been finding parts of it really hitting me hard. Last winter I did an amazing study with a group of friends that focused a lot on the book of Exodus. I had such incredible breakthrough with my anxiety during that study… Read More
Teaching your kids about Body safety and porn
Let’s just go ahead and start out by saying none of us want to talk about this, myself included. I would rather bury my head in the sand and assume my sweet little daughters will never encounter “bad people”, “bad touch” or “bad pictures”. And, Lord willing, that will be true! I will pray to that end daily until I… Read More
My next bible study
Before I share what I am using for my own personal quiet time in the Word of God, I want to encourage people to do their own research and at all times filter everything through the truth of God’s word. There are so many different studies and teachers out there. Some are wonderful, some are not accurate to the Bible… Read More
if i can help just one…
I just can’t keep quiet for a single second it feels like. My fingers can’t sit still. My words can’t stay in my head. This is burning inside of me and I just need to get it out. I had planned a much more articulate way of sharing my mental health story with you, and I still will share it… Read More
My Review Of The Adventures With Archer Journal
I want to be up front and state this is not a paid ad. I found this product on instagram last year, looked into it, and paid for it myself. I decided to write a post about it on my own accord, as I think it is a lovely product. This is the Adventures with Archer journal. Archer is a… Read More
why i celebrate my kid’s salvation birthdays
We probably all have those friends we grew up with who considered themselves to be a Christian in childhood yet have not chosen a lifestyle of obedience and surrender to Christ in their adult years. Honestly, because of all the people I have encountered who have this as their story, (and honestly i was one of them for a time)… Read More
Creating Community wherever you are
We have moved so many times. It is not necessarily what I would have wanted or chosen; I would love to put down roots. But what moving a lot has taught us is the importance of community and our role in making it happen! Here are my tips from someone who has done it lots on how to create community… Read More
What do you think keeps your world in order?
I think you will notice two very different types of posts on this blog; the homeschooling type of posts will be well organized and clearly laid out (I hope!) and the posts on faith will be written straight from the heart with not as much thought to layout and flow (although I will try my best). I think it is… Read More
We need our army standing guard for us
As a follower of Christ, I can attest to the fact that the enemy is real. 1 Peter 5:8 reminds us that the enemy prowls around like a lion looking for who it can devour. Devour! Did you know that one of the definitions for devour is “to destroy completely”? I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to… Read More
