Bathtubs & … other items
This week, I began a Bible study with some sweet girls from my youth group. About 10 minutes before they arrived, I got Nate up from his bed. As I was changing his diaper, I realized that he had not only defiled his diaper, but also his entire outfit and backside. I popped him in…

Sicky Wicky
I spent yesterday with a bunch of close friends. We just chilled on the couch together all day. And by *chilled* I mean that in the literal sense of the word. I managed to take a picture of all my friends gathered in one spot: Oh my, what a shame. Looks like I didn’t make…

Mercy Calls
There we were. Driving along in our little car – one big happy family. I noticed a policeman parked on the opposite side of the road and mentioned to Jonathan, “Hey, I don’t know what the speed limit is or if you’re going over it, but you might wanna slow down.” {cue dramatic music} Mr.…

When Sinners Say “I Do” – Book Review
Gospel-centered. That is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of the book, When Sinners Say “I Do.” Written by Dave Harvey, I first heard of this book about a year ago when my aunt recommended it. Since then, I had seen it several times while browsing books online, but there are…

Sacrifice :: 15/52 + Book Winner
Sacrifice. What comes to your mind when you hear this word? According to Merriam-Webster, sacrifice can be defined as the “destruction or surrender of something for the sake of something else.” Many things come to my mind when I think of this word. That’s because there are many people who have sacrificed for me. Jesus sacrificed His…

Creative Counterpart – Book 8
Okay, I realize I am way behind in my “read 1 book/month” goal for 2011. But the year is not over yet. I still have great plans to read 12 books this year. I may just have to read 2 books/month during these last 2 months. 🙂 All of that aside, I recently finished a…
