Some Times The Process Is The Point ~ 12 New Things Challenge

A few weeks ago, my friend Sarah Mae from Like a Warm Cup of Coffee issued a challenge to learn one new thing every month and then blog about it the last Thursday. Everyone participating is linking up on Sarah Mae's page and it's actually pretty fun. There is only one problem… I FORGOT! My challenge [...]

Are You Living Like An Orphan? ~ Guest Blogger Sue Cramer

This year I've had the great pleasure of getting to know and become friends with Sue Cramer. She is the lovely lady behind a wonderful women's ministry known as Praise and Coffee. I'm honored to have Sue as my guest blogger today! Read on as Sue shares her thoughts about what it means to live knowing [...]

What Am I Leaving Behind?

 A friend of mine recently lost her grandfather and was asking a question of friends and family.  "What am I leaving behind?" It's a good question and one I know many people ask. I've been asking myself very similar questions in the last year or so. Mine haven't been spurred by a recent death, but [...]

Do I REALLY Have to Forgive The Dudes Who Killed My Mailbox???

But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. Do not judge, and you will not [...]

Faith Over Fear

For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline. 2 Timothy 1:7 (NLT) You know, as I'm getting out there into the wide world, sharing my testimony, talking to people, reading reviews of my book (which have been overwhelmingly positive) and answering questions there is an [...]

Unidentified

So the other day some friends of mine suggested I watch a Christian movie which tackles the subject of UFO's and alien abduction. They had a lot of good things to say about it and since I'm always interested to see how a Christian movie will treat occult topics I thought I'd give it a [...]

Five Friday Finds: True Epic Romances

Hooray, it's finally Friday and the day I list five things that suit my fancy! The fun thing about Five Friday Finds is it can be about anything.  So THIS week I thought I'd share some epic romance-style happy endings. I confess I'm a real girl and when it comes to "chick flicks" I absolutely [...]

Considering Twilight: Obsession or Love?

   Twilight. I have to confess I really do not understand the appeal of these books or the movies (which I have previously discussed in another blog called Twilight Calling).  The furor is utterly mind boggling. Some people have objected to Twilight because of the vampire themes, mysticism/ fantasy elements, etc. Honestly, that's not my issue with the [...]
