Ephesians 4:29 says, “Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs that it may benefit those that listen.”I have been feeling very convicted about how we have been talking to each other in our home lately. Specifically, the word that the Lord has placed on my heart is “gracious.” I have not been gracious in my speech and I believe this is why my children are now being much uglier to each other with their words ...

Mortimer’s Christmas Manger
This cute, new Christmas book came out last year (I believe) but I was too cheap to buy it before Christmas last year.

These are just some special traditions that we do in our home! (I do want to ... Read More about Advent in our Home
Uncharted
Friends, I come to you today with a heartfelt recommendation that you read this book, Uncharted, by Angela Hunt. This book is going to the very, tip-top of my MUST READ book list of all time!! I can say without a doubt that I have never read anything like it. This book was so good that I read it very quickly, but the images…the story…the things I have read about will stay with me forever. You might call this story a parable. This book tells the story of our lives with such amazing creativity ... Read More about Uncharted
