In 2023, I came to a shocking realization. It seemed like every time I committed to intentional, continual study of my Bible, some major trial would come into my life. Really.
June 9, 2025I was new, all alone, and very sad. During Dad’s sickness, I longed to know God, or at least something bigger than an imaginary Santa Claus. I had no idea how clearly God would answer that longing.

May 19, 2025Trigger warning (please don’t drop your laptop or phone and run away screaming.) I’m about to mention the “M-word”: Modesty.
As a mom of two daughters, modesty has been a regular topic of conversation since they were about a year old and we had to buy their first swimsuit. Now I find it continues on an annual cycle. “What about this dress for Homecoming? Christmas? Prom?” “How about these shorts for Youthcamp or this uniform for cross country or track?” “Can I wear this to school?” And before you know it, they are asking the same thing about bridesmaids and wedding dresses.
May 12, 2025I have increasingly come across books that contain sexually explicit and graphic content. I’m sure I’m not the only one.
These books typically come with great reviews and rarely advertise themselves as explicit.
