As I sat in church today and looked around, I saw many friends, familiar faces, and visitors. One caught my attention. A wife that was at church without her husband. This isn’t the first week she’s come alone, this is the norm for her. And her children. As I glanced around the auditorium, God reminded… Continue reading To the Spouse That is at Church Alone on Sunday

To the Spouse That is Home Alone on Sunday
Do you find yourself at home on Sundays because your spouse goes to church? If so, you’re in the right place. I’m not going to belittle you, beg you to go with them, or berate you for staying home. I want to offer you a different point of view. When one spouse goes to church… Continue reading To the Spouse That is Home Alone on Sunday
The World Our Kids Are Growing Up In
Paul writes to the churches of the New Testament and often has to address sin. Usually, it’s topics like witchcraft, fornication, and pride. Two sins that most parents still worry about today. I’m a millennial. And most of the older generation says, “I can’t imagine raising kids in this world.” Or “I can’t believe how… Continue reading The World Our Kids Are Growing Up In
Your Ideal Home
What would you say if I were to ask you to describe your ideal home? Do you envision a house and a yard? You may want a garden, a barn full of animals, or a perfectly manicured yard with a fence and a pond. What about the inside? Is it an open floor plan and… Continue reading Your Ideal Home

Submitting to Your Husband
I will be honest: I don’t know why God keeps putting this on my heart other than simply because someone needs it. Submission is not always easy; society will not encourage this, but it is biblical, and we need it. If you have been in church or Christian circles long, you have heard a message… Continue reading Submitting to Your Husband
Surviving or Thriving?
I saw a sticker recently that said #survivingmotherhood I get it. Some days are hard. Being a mother is a full-time job. There are challenges nearly every day. There are questions, messes, and tantrums to navigate. You’ve never done this day before. Even if you have multiple children, there are still new challenges you will… Continue reading Surviving or Thriving?
Truths About Nagging
Truths about nagging: Nag is defined as: annoy or irritate (a person) with persistent fault-finding or continuous urging. Nagging comes easily. Nagging isn’t biblical. The Reason for Nagging: To get someone to do something you want. Nagging may motivate them to complete the request, but that doesn’t justify it. If nagging is not biblical, that… Continue reading Truths About Nagging
Can I Be Honest With You?
I just want to share part of my story. Maybe this will encourage you. Maybe it’ll make you think I’m crazy. I got married young. I had an okay example of marriage from my parents. My husband didn’t have a godly example, so we both had/have a lot to learn. My home life was a… Continue reading Can I Be Honest With You?
