  • Summer Reading List

    Y’all I love summer. And I hate summer. It throws off this Type A-OCD personality because so much of what our summer looks like is kinda “fly by the seat of our pants.” With three boys in the house all summer our schedule can go from perfectly planned to quasi-organized chaos in the blink of… Read more

  • The Most Powerful Prayer I’ve Prayed

    Whew….I thought this prayer series would take 4 weeks…and it’s been a lot longer. Summertime has been kicking my blog’s booty. Seriously. Tiny humans, vacations, Vacation Bible School, pool days, play dates, all of it has thrown my schedule upside down. I’m savoring this season of coordinated chaos.

  • Praying for your Husband

  • The Power of the Sabbath

    I’m a doer. I love to be busy. Anyone who knows me knows my schedule is always moving, and I love being on the go. Not in a burn yourself out kind of way, but more like an action packed, get things done kind of way. I love lunch dates and play dates. And I… Read more

  • Holy Week: How Gethsemane Trumps Eden

    , , ,

    Thursday. The day must have felt like eternity for Him. I mean after all, He was the only human who comprehended eternity. He spent the day teaching. Watching his guys go about “normal” business. He saw them smile, He heard their chatter, and He waited. I wonder what He thought as He heard them laugh… Read more
