Today is national Spotlight on Slavery Day. Seems straight forward and simple, right? Human trafficking – sex trafficking, etc. So don’t be surprised to see people of all kinds wearing a red X on the back of their hand. But you know me… I’ve always got to think further and more outside the box than that…
Unusual Circumstances
As most of you know, my book came out a couple of weeks ago. Because it’s Christmas time, I have been looking for things to post about Christmas and reading those verses in Luke about Mary’s story in all of this.
And my friend is helping me write a study guide that goes along with my book. So we were discussing the fact that Mary unequivocally said yes to God and His plan…
Offense, Fruit and Gifts
Preface: I am doing a series on Offense over in my Facebook group, Going Beyond Shame and Guilt. This is what popped up today and you can see how it developed into this post, so I am sharing it with you all, too…
Back to the Word
So, I am finding out more and more as I go along that most people really want to have time for God. We want to have time to pray, really pray. And time to dig deeper into His Word on a daily basis.

Handel’s Messiah Part 2 – Since By Man Came Death
I love that the songs are comprised of Bible verses and not only tell the story of Christmas, as we call it, but also lay out the gospel plan of salvation for everyone.

Handle’s Messiah Part 1 – All We Like Sheep
For those of you who don’t know, I went to a Christian High school and was in choir. I loved it so much. I was especially impacted by my freshman year’s selection of songs we learned along with some other Christian High Schools and we all sang together. I’d only ever heard the Hallelujah Chorus up to this point, so some of these other songs really made me love this entire work…
God’s Word and the Holidays
NEW BIBLE STUDY: We wanted to go through the holidays without missing God’s Word. So we have chosen a study with very little homework so we can both enjoy the holidays and dig deeper into God’s word…
STANDING FIRM IN TODAY’S CULTURE Have you seen what’s going on lately? The media would have us fixate on gun control, or Russia fables, or tweets on social media. But really, have you paid attention to the important stuff…
STUDY TO SHOW YOURSELF APPROVED PART 5
Funny how God has the most perfect timing. I was listening to a pastor yesterday and he’s been teaching on Acts. He made a great point when talking about reading and studying the scriptures…
STUDY TO SHOW YOURSELF APPROVED PART 4
Today is a picture blog about some of the reasons we are to study God’s word…
