Carrot Cake Cupcakes
With Easter around the corner, carrot cake was just the right version of delicious to launch us into celebration and spring. Enjoy!
Promises
I think perhaps we look with scrutiny (realized or not) at the promises God makes. We narrow our eyes and say, “do I believe that?”
Will Smith, Anna Delvey, and Advocates
It has been an interesting week. It’s easy to discuss the lives of those who live public controversy. But we’ve all played the role of defendant. We all need an advocate.
Helping Your Child be Successful
Today’s post is for all the parents out there who want to help their kids reach their full potential. Let’s consider what’s actually success.
The Veil
We have a groom that has promised to remove a veil that lies over our hearts too. A veil that whether thick or thin falls between us and our rescuer, and the tricky thing is that often we can’t even see it. Lots of times, we don’t even realize it’s there. We just sort of wonder why Jesus is hard to understand, or why it’s so hard to pray. We fix our eyes on the stuff around us that makes sense, and stop wrestling with the difficult, because… why again?
But that’s going to change.
Word Study… a Launch Into Indefinite Discovery
So, over the next few months, we’re going to work through some language used in scripture together, using it as a springboard to explore the Bible more deeply. We’ll look at a few words, and might even get into some wordplay and passage-level study. I encourage you to join in and apply what we do to your own study. My hope is that you’ll discover layers of biblical epiphany that stretch on (wait for it) indefinitely.
Jars of Clay
You carry a gifted treasure. Something he delights in giving us though our bodies waste away, inwardly he renews day by day. So that when we are many in years, and cannot move with liquid grace, there is something under all the sore bones and wrinkled flesh, that far outweighs any semblance of strength we ever had at our best.
My Thoughts On IF:Gathering 2022
I just got back from Dallas about a week ago. I had planned to attend the IF conference, and my 7 husband decided it was a perfect opportunity to escape the grind of our normal routines, and take winter break in the middle of nowhere — also known as Point, TX. It was gloriously still. Beautifully quiet. Except for the coyotes… they were loud. But the point is that going into this conference my heart was rested, stilled, and ready to listen.

Calling Out
We call out to one that we trust. We call out when something threatens our peace. What happens when we call out to God?
Transmission Troubles and Remembering
It’s Ash Wednesday, and there’s a whole lot of formal “remembering” happening right now. Takes me back to a moment last summer when God, in his good timing, prompted me to remember. We joke a lot about my husband’s “seven-ness” that seeps out of him on vacation. It...
