Unmet expectations. This world is full of them. And somehow we seem to place more of them on ourselves than anyone else does. Or maybe that is just me. For years, I felt like I had to hide my failures. My fears. After all, what if the people who look […]
I love worshiping the Lord and always wish the time we spend in worship at church would go on much longer than it does. The majority of the music I listen to falls in the Praise and Worship category and my husband and I listen to a great variety of […]
I have so many different thoughts dancing through my mind right now! I feel like I just sat down with a seventeen-year-old girl who shared with me her thoughts, worries, and struggles about being pregnant and in high school. There were so many little details that I had never considered before.
Today I am highlighting a set of Christmas novels by author Alexa Verde. She is kindly also providing a giveaway to one lucky reader. Each of the books in this collection are also available individually, though it just makes sense to buy them together. For your convenience, I am showing […]
The hill behind our elementary school was undeveloped. At the base of the hill was a large California pepper tree (which looks similar to a weeping willow – for those of you who have never seen one). The majority of the hill was covered with sparse vegetation and it had […]
Victorious by LoRee Peery In His sovereignty, the Lord chose 1975 as the year to gain my attention. My father was murdered in April. My parents lived in the old Lutheran parsonage, and after the funeral, I looked out the kitchen window toward the cemetery. A rainbow arched over Daddy’s […]

Excerpt Rachel Streetman strolled past the high-dollar paintings and plush furniture to the window. Located on the thirty-eighth floor in a downtown Atlanta high-rise, her father’s office […]
I have another interview with author Sandra Byrd to share with you. You can read the first part here. Have you read Lady of a Thousand Treasures yet? If not, click on that link to get to my review and pick up a copy! Sandra, thank you for visiting Among […]
Mirrors are so frustrating! I can be going around, minding my own business and seeing myself as I was when I was in my 20s (but with a better complexion!) and then I catch a glimpse of myself in a mirror and see that additional weight I’ve put on. And […]
“Why should I lock my computer? This is a Christian ministry,” Rick asked me when I questioned him leaving it unlocked in a high-traffic common area. I sometimes wonder at the false sense of security that working for a large Christian organization brings to those who are there. We work […]
