by Sandra Wester Hebrews 11:1 – “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” You can hold the substance inside your hand if you’d like because I’ve put it inside your heart. Everything you dream can be fulfilled through that substance. It is living and creative. Close your [...]

by Andrea Bankert Hello. My name is Andrea, and I am a Closet Slob. If there was a support group for Closet Slobs, I would be a star member. Not only do my literal closets look like the Tasmanian Devil was loosed in them, but I am secretly a slob at heart. Growing up, my [...]

by Christie Mullins Evolution is such an integral part of our culture and education that sometimes I have to remind myself of why I believe in creation. One way I remind myself is by contemplating fetal circulation! Yes, blood flow through an unborn baby. When I studied fetal circulation in nursing school I was so [...]

by Sandi Sanford We’re getting new furniture, but I’m a little sad about it. For as long as we’ve been married we’ve had two sofas in the living room, unmatched but comfortable. One is like a member of the family. We call it “the milky couch,” because it’s white, originally at least, and our sons [...]

by Christa Hogan Last night I was up at 3:30 am, which isn’t unusual for me since I’m the mom of a four-month-old. The middle of the night is my anxiety time, when I have trouble focusing my mind on the Lord’s promises and instead find myself worrying over things out of my control. Last [...]

by Genel Webb I’ve observed something really funny about myself. I grew up sharing a small bedroom, bed, closet, and dresser with my younger sister. So that meant that we each got half of the bedroom, half of the bed, half of the closet and half of the dresser. I had 3 drawers to use [...]

by Genel Webb A few weeks ago, I sat behind a young lady at church. As we said hello at the beginning of the service, she seemed familiar. As the service progressed, her body language even seemed familiar. It seemed familiar because I saw myself in her. Have you ever been in a place or [...]

By Susan Lucas I don’t know about you, but I am ready for summer. I love the beach and the water and the time to “just be.” I have very fond memories of spending time at the beach growing up. I even met my husband there. When I was a teenager, condos hadn’t arrived yet [...]

By Sharon Boling When my children were young, the best way to encourage them to do something was to offer a positive reinforcement or a reward. Whether it was cleaning their room, or getting along with each other, or even being quiet and still for a blessed three or four minutes, a reward would almost [...]

By Maria Simone My heart ached for my 6-year old son, as tears streamed down his face because of cruel words from his friends. Oh how I long to protect my children from put-downs and ridicule, but I know all too well that this is something that they will experience at points throughout their life. [...]

by Tina Bruno March!!  Let us March on, the March Hare, Beware the Ides of March! These are all the things I think of when I  think of this month.  But the best thing about March?  It’s a time for beginning. According to the Jewish Calendar, the month of Nissan is the first month of [...]
