When editing Bible studies, often a verse—perhaps one I’m already familiar with—will strike my attention. I’m sure this happens to everyone who is studying the living Word of God. Every so often, I’ll jot down the verse, or a phrase of the verse, on...

Hey friends. I am coming back this year to continue my bracket challenge/outline of my strategies due to popular demand/I asked two friends if this was annoying and they said no plus my dad texted me about it. I’m a little late in getting this written this year....

On Mother’s Day, I wrote about a lesson I learned from my mom. So, today on Father’s Day, I thought about the lessons I’ve learned from my dad. He’s taught me many things—how to iron, how to use a compass, how to mow, and endless trivia. If you...

It’s Mother’s Day, so naturally, I am thinking about my mom. She has taught and continues to teach me too many lessons to list here. I’ve learned from her how to be competitive, passionate, loyal. She’s taught me sometimes you just need a good...
