Mom, are You Taking Time for…You?
I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint. –Jeremiah 31:25 niv Ah, the freshness of dewy autumn, blowing away the stickiness of summer days. Pumpkin spice everywhere…and the smell of freshly sharpened pencils. Mama, it’s time for your little ones to go back to school. It’s after a ... [keep reading]
Three Prayers for the Start of the School Year
I sent my kids off to school on two different buses this year. My oldest headed to middle school for the first time. This means he’s changing classrooms every hour, navigating a new social scene, and learning to stand strong amidst peer pressure. As if I didn’t already have reason to pray for my ... [keep reading]
Why You Need the Gospel
We became first-time moms within nine months of each other, and although we didn’t realize it at the time, we both entered motherhood with high expectations. Yet today, with eight kids between us, our optimistic expectations have toppled under the pressures of everyday life. Just like when we ... [keep reading]
How to Find Your Ministry as a Mom
I used to feel guilty about not doing my part in sharing God’s love with those around me. When my kids were babies, I felt as if all of my time was consumed with doing the laundry, changing dirty diapers, and keeping the house clean. If I didn’t even have time to take a shower, how was I going to ... [keep reading]
What to Do When You’re Feeling Lonely

We have sixteen chickens, two miniature horses, a donkey, three dogs, three cats, and a turtle. To tell the ... [keep reading]
What Will You Do with the “Rest” of Summer?
Truly my soul finds rest in God; my salvation comes from him (Psalm 62:1). Summer vacation. The words conjure images of a loaded-down vehicle, perhaps pulling a trailer or items secured to the top with a multiplexity of bungee cords. And kids. Kids everywhere. Your kids, their friends, nieces and ... [keep reading]
Why You Should Bring Fruit on Your Next Family Trip
My family loves traveling together. Whether it’s driving to a national park or visiting the beach, we’ve made all kinds of memories on the road. Can I be honest, though? Some of our trips haven’t been filled with 100 percent happy memories. Some—okay, all—of them have involved at least one fight ... [keep reading]
Trust God to Help You Grow and Bloom
I’ve shared my experience with gardening here before and how I tremble at the thought of pruning my plants. To be honest with you, friends, I have gained confidence in adding new plants to the yard, but I still find myself hesitant and a little anxious to pick up the pruning shears and cut back the ...

Stop Swimming in Doubt About How God Made You
I put on a swimsuit today. No, not for me but for the sake of my kids. I should tell you first that I’ve never struggled with being overweight, but I’ve also never not struggled with my weight. In the fifth grade I became aware of how I looked in a swimsuit. Nobody said anything to me. I had ... [keep reading]
