Are you a joyful warrior or a fearful pawn? In this video, we take a look at the two options that are squarely before Christians at this moment in history.
We’ve all heard the term “happy warrior” to describe people who fight for their causes in a upbeat way. These are people who don’t seem to get down about defeats or setbacks. It’s a good label, but “happy” isn’t a term I would want to use because happiness is based on circumstances. The Lord calls …
I would guess most of the women who read my blog are well acquainted with history. Either they read historical fiction, they have homeschooled many years of history, or they simply enjoy it as a subject in and of itself. Because of that, I also would guess that we as a blog community have more …
I’m a big believer in keeping a healthy amount of margin in life. I’ve written many posts about margin over the years and highly recommend two books related to it in my list of My Favorite Simple Living Books. But sometimes no matter how hard I try, I find myself with shrinking levels of the …
This was a long week for everyone for various reasons. It was a long week at the end of a long month in the midst of a long year. Giving up, throwing up our hands, or giving into depression isn’t an option. As women, we set the tone in the home more than anyone. I’m …

Her reasoning was sound and she brought up some profound insights related to her choice. (This was a secular video, not Christian.) What made me sad …
Words matter as shown by the two lists below. For Christians, our thoughts and conversation should reflect the truth God gives us in His written word. Fill your mind (and your child’s mind) with the Truth and language of God’s Word. Use the words God deliberately gave to us to understand Him and our world. …
In Matthew 10:16, Jesus said this to his disciples: “Behold, I am sending you out like sheep among wolves; therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves.” (BSB) We’re called to be as shrewd as serpents and as gentle as doves. Most Christian women seem to focus in on the dove part …
These are difficult times. There is no denying that. But difficult times are nothing new to our great God. The Lord has walked His children through many difficult times and He certainly isn’t going to stop now. Nothing is a surprise to Him. He told us in His Word that there is nothing new under …
