Crazy Fun Gift Idea: My Words as Art!
Just a quick note to say I’m so excited about seeing my words as art from Red Letter Words. How fun is this sign? You can order it in black, coral, or turquoise (as shown) in two different sizes. Now the question becomes: Can I live up to these words? Can I (you) learn to […]

Move from Brokenhearted to Openhearted – 35
The Gist: God’s heart is that we live openhearted on this earth. To do so, let’s live OPEN. Occupy Life. What wounds is what heals. Pray! The Lord’s prayer begins with “Pray Like This.” Our first response should be to pray about the offense. Not hash it over and over again and stuff it. Not […]

That time, that exact time, Jesus lifted me
A few weeks ago I wrote a post about feeling burdened...about a worship service, a song, a moment on my knees. And today, I clicked through to a video of that song, not realizing it was the exact moment, the exact song, at my church. What a blessing to see it go viral. Maybe today […]

Write a Letter – 34
The Gist: This episode is a little bit different from the others. I’m reading some personal letters I’ve sent to friends and family, and share the outcomes of those letters. Here is one excerpt from Thin Places that details what happened with one of my letters: I stand above my grandmother’s grave, a gaping, muddy […]

Help One Now sponsors each child in that area five times. Why? Because it helps truly provide everything the child needs. Many of the children are […]

When Do I Tell My Kids about My Sexual Abuse?
This week I’m answering some difficult questions put forth by two readers. Rachel asked: 1) How over time did you tell your children about your past? Was there a certain amount of knowledge you passed along as the children grew up or did you wait for a “teachable moment” to share pieces over the years? […]

What Will They Think? – 33
The Gist: I’m grateful today for the scholarship of Liz Curtis Higgs on this particular proverb. How many of you have worried what other people think? Raise your hands. Ah, yes, I see you there. I certainly have struggled with this truth. Today’s podcast unpacks our worry about what others think and how to be […]
