This is week two of our "Bless to Me" series. If you like to listen to the sermon I've started the video at the scripture reading for you (of course you can always rewind and watch the whole service if you'd like). Or if you'd rather read it, I've shared the transcript below. Bless to... Continue Reading →
Christmas in July part 2
I don't know about you, but I've been needing a little escape from all the ... craziness in the world (well, mostly the United States). It's been overwhelming and exhausting. So the other DD and I took a Christmas break! Yep, we just did Christmas all day. We baked cookies, we ate cookies, we drank... Continue Reading →
So much to say…
So I've been wanting to post for a while now. Not another devotional but just a post about life and what I'm doing but life has been so crazy that I just can't ever seem to find the time. I know, we're on stay at home orders, what is there to do? Well, let me... Continue Reading →
Rambling thoughts on life today…
So friends, how are you doing? Really? How are you REALLY doing? I know for some of us this stay at home thing is hard. Easter was different. For some, it didn’t feel even a little bit like Easter! My Easter was different, it had a little sadness, but it also had smiles and laughter. ... Continue Reading →
We CAN do this!
This morning, I rolled over in bed and picked up my phone. I had gotten out of the habit of doing this in early January but as this virus has taken over, I find myself once again, looking for my phone and catching up on the news before I even get out of the bed.... Continue Reading →

It’s Going to Be Okay
This advent I’ve been preaching on Joy – hopeful joy, loving joy, unabashed joy, and today will be peaceful joy. Hopeful joy – I shared how we can find hope and joy in the most unexpected places. I had a memorial service the day before and so I was able to share how even in... Continue Reading →
Disconnecting to Reconnect
Yes, silly as it sounds, that is exactly what I have been trying to do. Disconnecting from technology some so that I can reconnect... with nature, with family, with God, with myself! I've been reading more and just sitting more. I've been visiting more and crocheting more. I've been going through things and letting go.... Continue Reading →
Soul Searching
The last few weeks, I've been kind of soul searching. Kind of trying to find myself again spiritually. I've been feeling a bit lost... not sure who I am, where I want to be, even what exactly I believe! This soul searching has moved me away from my computer, from social media. I've been reading,...

Christmas In July – More Traditions
Yesterday I reminisced about Christmas traditions, specifically ornament making. I have so many other traditions I could share and maybe I will but in going down memory lane I'm reminded that traditions are fun and important too but they shouldn't consume us or close the door on new ideas and traditions. Sometimes as we grow... Continue Reading →
