  • betcha haven’t

    Number of comments: 1
    Betcha haven’t been to a third world country this week. Betcha haven’t helped feed children at a village care point lately. Betcha haven’t handed out free shoes to needy, smiling children in quite some time. Well, I know of a group of young people who are working hard to get [...]

  • Oh, those homeschoolers!

    Number of comments: 2
    Today’s Friday Meme at Heart of the Matter (online homeschool magazine) has us answering the question: “What are some of the crazy questions you’ve been asked about homeschooling?” Since we’ve been homeschooling for 15 years, and my children have never been in a traditional school (except for a Spanish class here and [...]

  • The Call

    Number of comments: 6
    So it happened . . . the dreaded “call.” The call no parent wants to get. The call that other people get, not me. The call that says “There’s been an accident.” I don’t remember the next few minutes. I know that I got into the car. I know that [...]

    Number of comments: 6
    He will show you MERCY, have compassion on you, (Deuteronomy. 13:17) Mercy is one of those “church” words. We hear it used in almost every sermon. We’re told that God offers it and that we need it. And I’m not sure of the exact number, but I think that the word [...]

  • Of Utmost Concern (by Michael Pearl)

    Number of comments: 2
    I think most of you feel as I do about many common issues. My most important personal concern is my children. Even before I was married, my occupation, financial security, ministry, personal fulfillment, all took third place to concerns for my future children.  “What does it profit a man if [...]

    After the recent hurricane, Gustav, my husband and I attempted to drive through town to our home to check out any damage. (We stayed with my parents during the storm.) We weren’t prepared for much of what we saw. Hurricane force winds can do unbelievable damage. Every street and yard [...]

    God’s word tells us. (…These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you would have peace. In the world you will have tribulation, trials, difficulties, but take courage; I have overcome the world” John 16:33) It’s not like we’re uninformed. We know these things happen. But, sometimes, there’s no [...]

    Number of comments: 7
    The word ‘Sovereign’ is one of those words. One of those words that we are not altogether unfamiliar with, yet we’d be hard pressed to say that we fully “get it” - especially when the word is used to describe God. So I did what all over-thinkers do. I looked [...]

    When I finished college, I remember telling God that I would teach anywhere - with 2 exceptions: wherever there were preschoolers and wherever there were teenagers. Since I wasn’t married and didn’t have children of my own, I knew I’d never have enough patience for the tiny people - preschoolers. [...]

    Predictable happy endings, walking off into the sunset, happily ever after etc., etc. That’s what I like.
