We Praise the Shimmery

I looked at my bank statement today and got that weird panicky feeling again. It’s silly, I know. God has this, right? But again, I worry. And then I commit the sin of Facebook, looking at all the shiny people doing all the shiny things–becoming wildly successful, living their best lives on the stage of […]

Do you yell at yourself?

I woke up this morning with that sickly feeling of regret, of shame. And then I wallowed in it, nursed the words, called myself names. Can you relate? Have you ever abused your mind and heart this way? Here’s the silly thing, honestly. It was about a purchase I regretted that cost $70.72. A lot […]

2015: The Year You Write Your Book

Have you had a dream way down deep to hold a book with your name on the cover? Have you jotted a goal on your bucket list that included, Write a Book? Honestly, I never thought I’d hold my book in my hands. I didn’t think I’d get published. When I diapered and nurtured my […]

Recap of 2014

2014 was a good year, workwise, but also frustrating and confusing. I did manage to finish three books, self-publish one (Not Marked), release some audio and ebooks, and speak a lot. As I settle in to rest these next two weeks, I’ll be taking inventory, praying, reading Scripture, and talking to wise people to discern […]

22 Reasons She is Lovely: the Happy Birthday Sophie edition

She cried her way into Christmas Eve, one week early as usual, twenty-two years ago today. And I’m so very grateful to a merciful God who demonstrated such mercy in the person of my daughter. She is mercy. She is joy. She is lovely. Let me count the ways: She makes faces. One thousand of […]

Your Story Can Make You Heroic – 39

The Gist: I believe God asks us three things in light of our past stories, three determinations we can make in the aftermath. Be gutsy. Be tribal. Be a hero. Scriptures: “Learn to do good. Seek justice. Help the oppressed. Defend the cause of the orphans. Fight for the rights of widows.” Isaiah 1:17 “You […]

A book can save a life…

I received this correspondence by surprise, and got permission to share it with you. Now, this has to do with my first published book, Ordinary Mom, Extraordinary God, but it could have just as easily been a letter I’d written or a blog post. What I mean by that is your words matter in this […]
