Do you understand what is happening right now? I mean really understand? I’ve come to the conclusion that most Americans have no idea what a complicated situation we are in right now. One person has described it as World War Four. If you find that shocking, then you honestly don’t fully grasp what is happening. …

While we desire to live a quiet and simple life, sometimes we must be willing to face reality, stand up, and be counted. A quiet and simple life isn’t something we should take for granted. There are forces at work right now that would undermine our liberty and freedom to live as we choose. As …

One of the enjoyable parts of running this website is discovering other Delta Delta Delta (Tri Delta) sorority sisters. Over the years I’ve met Tri Deltas from different chapters around the country. It provides an instant bond. Why? Because when I meet another Tri Delta I know we have one thing in common – our …

This was originally published under a different title on March 11, 2009. I thought it was time to bring it back. How much things haven’t changed in the past eleven years. This was true then and is perhaps even more true today. I’m republishing it with only minor editing for readability. (You might even find …

Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God. If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter 4:10-11

We’re currently standing on the precipice of something we cannot fully explain. We can sense it’s coming because it’s impossible to miss the signs that things are not right. At the same time, we don’t know how this “thing” will unfold. We can’t even name this thing we see right before us. We don’t know …

My blogging friend, Dianna, often uses the phrase “Head down, blinders on” to encourage us to focus on what we have set out to do. I’ve been dutifully applying it this month. If you look at what I’ve posted in June, you’ll see it hasn’t been much. I have been adding content to the forum …

When you read the title of this post, I would guess you had a reaction that went along with your already formed opinion about Christians watching movies with sex. Maybe even a strong opinion. I have a rather strong opinion about this, too. In fact, my opinion was strengthened due to what I’m going to …

I’ve written before about sentimental items. It’s a fairly common phenomena that people have a difficult time letting go of things because of the emotions attached to them. It might be a special gift from someone or a memento of a specific event. Whatever the underlying reason, people keep items because of past associations connected …

Before I got out of bed this morning, I was thinking about everything going on in our family life, the life of my country, and the world. I came back to a truth I’ve written about time and again. Trusting in God’s restraining hand of love in my life. This time I contemplated it from …

I’m a conservative, thinking, gifted, traditional, home-focused, homeschooling, happily married woman who asks too many questions to “fit in” completely. That’s just who I am. And I honestly like who I am.

I chose Beautify as my word for 2020 for a few reasons. One, as a statement against the ugliness of the culture at this moment. Two, as a reminder of the real need I have for beauty in my life. Three, to spur me on to not just think about beauty, but to also use …

“Lo, I am with you all the appointed days.” Matt. 28:20, Variorum Version Do not look forward to the changes and chances of this life in fear. Rather look at them with full hope that, as they arise, God, whose you are, will deliver you out of them. He has kept you hitherto; do you …
