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
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
A Unified Home
First Corinthians 1:10 says, “Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.” Psalm 133:1 says, “Behold, how good and… Continue reading A Unified Home
Be a Servant
Being a Servant The Greek word for servant is doulos, pronounced doo’-los. This word is the same as slave. It is to be under the rule or authority of someone else. In our present society, the use of the word slave never carries a positive meaning. We have done all we can to eradicate slavery,… Continue reading Be a Servant
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
Be Poured Out
Often, we say that you can’t pour from an empty cup. Logically, this makes sense. I understand that the thought is that you have nothing to give when you are empty. Being empty could be exhaustion, overwhelm, or fear. When we experience any of those, we freeze. We can’t make a decision or take the… Continue reading Be Poured Out

#hotmess This is a popular hashtag and photo caption on our social media pages, isn’t it? Along with #hotmessmama and #hotmessexpress I understand the relatability of this term. The idea is to show that we aren’t and don’t have to be put perfectly together 100% of the time. Some days we don’t get out of… Continue reading The Culture of #hotmess
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?
