Simple Living Means Choosing God’s Truth

This morning I cleaned out my Gab timeline. It is mostly homeschooling, pretty pictures of God’s creation, quotes, etc. However, there were other things in there that I decided to remove.

I am, in a sense, taking a break from the cultural and political battlefield (but not my blog!). I’ve been battling for about 20 months now and it’s time to let others take up the fight.



We are living in a time of unprecedented lies, manipulation, and deception. I truly believe we are living in a time of great evil that is causing great harm. However, every day more people clearly see what I have been talking about for many months. As I see more and more people awaken to this truth, it means I can let others lead the charge.

I need some quiet with my family and my own thoughts. I also have some lovely ideas for my blog, my shop, and this newsletter.

In other words, I want to turn my thoughts toward:

  • Create Peace
  • Seek Understanding
  • Cultivate Joy
  • Spread Beauty
  • Encourage Faith

I believe there is going to be a great need for these in the weeks and months ahead.

I’d like to leave you with these quotes from my Gab timeline.

  • “I enter a most earnest plea that in our hurried and rather bustling life today we do not lose the hold that our forefathers had on the Bible. No educated man can afford to be ignorant of the Bible; no uneducated man can afford to be ignorant of the Bible.” Theodore Roosevelt
  • “To have fellowship with men who deny the truth is to deny the truth by implying the truth does not matter.” D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
  • “When men choose not to believe in God, they do not thereafter believe in nothing, they then become capable of believing in anything.” G.K. Chesterton
  • “You are as much serving God in training your own children, as you would be if you lead an army to battle for the Lord.” Charles Spurgeon

For 20+ years, I’ve been writing about following Jesus Christ and making choices based on what is true, beautiful, and eternal. Through purposeful living, self-employment, and homeschooling, our family has learned that freedom comes from a commitment to examine all of life and think for yourself. 

I hope you will join me here where we discuss all of life each day.

A Christian Nation

"The real object of the first amendment was not to countenance, much less to advance, Mahometanism, or Judaism, or infidelity, by prostrating Christianity; but to exclude all rivalry among christian sects, and to prevent any national ecclesiastical establishment, which should give to a hierarchy the exclusive patronage of the national government."

Joseph Story (Associate Justice of the Supreme Court), Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States (1833), § 1871.

countenance: To favor; to encourage by opinion or words; To encourage; to appear in defense (Websters Dictionary 1828)
