Ronne Rock visits The Story Table

Welcome back! More from me below, but first, a little more about today’s podcast guest. Ronne Rock joins us in this week’s episode of The Story Table. Ronne is the author of One Woman Can Change the World. I thoroughly enjoyed this read and I wanted to introduce you to her work. Here’s a little bit of Ronne in her own words:

Hi there, love. We’re in this together, and I am for you. I offer hope for you, my purpose-weary warrior, and help you see God’s absolute delight in your design.  I walk and...

Mary R. Snyder visits The Story Table

Hey friends, our conversation on the many invitations of God to come, and keep coming, resumes today with a visit with Mary R. Snyder, creator of Take the Stage. I hope you’ll enjoy. Here’s a bit more about Mary in her own words:

I’m Mary – a true southerner who loves the indoors. Yes, that’s right; the indoors. I like a comfortable chair and some AC. Have you been to the South in the summer? It’s like living in hot soup. I do appreciate a great view and enjoy sipping a sparkling soda on my deck...

Denise Hildreth Jones visits The Story Table

Who drops the first episode of a new season of podcasts in the evening, rather than first thing in the morning? I know, I know! Me! If you’ve been in my circle for any length of time my unorthodox ways won’t surprise you, and I’m perfectly fine coloring outside the lines, so let’s get on with it. 

Today on The Story Table we’re visiting with Denise Hildreth Jones. Denise is an author and Bible Study teacher. Her books have been hailed as “smart and witty” by The Library Journal and featured twi...

A Dangerous Faith

Hello friends, let’s chat a spell…we’re in the middle of a cold snap here in northeast Louisiana and absolutely no one is surprised. Sure, we’ve been having weather inching into the high seventies and early eighties, but we’re used to Holy Week bringing the last barrage of chilly temps. As I write these words to you it occurs to me that in many ways the last hooray of winter’s blast mimics the enemy’s doomed effort to take out the Light of the World. The devil failed and all who believe in Jesus...

Shut the Front Door Sloppy Joes

Hey folks! I remember way back in the day when Mama would serve Sloppy Joes and snag major brownie points with our family. My sisters and I thought it was a special treat. I still think the sweet and savory flavors of Sloppy Joes are all that, but these days I make my own sauce instead of reaching for Manwich. (No offense, Manwhich! LOL!)

Earlier in the week I browned several pounds of ground beef. This is one of my favorite kitchen tips. Whether you’re baking chicken, browning beef, or prepping...

Right Now Media Presents Finding Deep and Wide!

Hey y’all, it’s a big day around here! Right Now Media is releasing the video curriculum for Finding Deep and Wide! 

Right Now Media is a streaming library of Bible study videos and powerful family-friendly video content committed to inspiring the faith of viewers and I couldn’t be happier about working with them. Your church may already have a membership! (If not, they may need a little nudge from you to check it out. It’s worth the small investment! Our church body has been using this resourc...

How You Can Know What You Need to Know

Hey friends, I do hope this finds you well and protected from these harsh weather conditions. As of this writing my loved ones and I have a roof over our heads, food to sustain us, and heat to warm us. I’m exceedingly grateful for these blessings and so conscious of those in more dire situations. My prayers are centered there.

But I’ve got something on my mind, beyond just wanting to reach out and check on y’all. I want us to look at discernment. We need discernment and we need to recognize our ...

A Hungry Devo – The Surrendered Heart

Hey folks! I’m passionate about helping you live the life Jesus died to give you! Storytelling is simply my favorite form of communication because I believe the whole world stops for a story! Today’s episode was taped at my parents’ house. Background music complements of my mom, also known as The Queen of Us All!

Now, for my newsletter readers, here’s my promise to you. I’m not going to fill your inboxes up daily and I’m not going to communicate with y’all solely by video going forward, tomboy h...

Who’s Stalking You?

Hey friends, I wanted to share some thoughts on staring down fear that I hope will encourage you. And I’ve got more on that news I mentioned in the last letter. Let’s chat…

 

Hugs,

Developing News, a Thank You, and a Bit of Silliness

Hey friends! I’ve got developing news on my last book Finding Deep and Wide! I’ll be able to share as soon as I get a confirmation on one small detail. Meanwhile, please enjoy this joyfulness (and a wee bit of silliness) as my family celebrated with me. I love these people! Let’s break for the video and then I have a few closing thoughts below. 

Okay, okay, so here’s the rest of the story…I also wanted an excuse to send out a HUGE thank you to everyone for responding so enthusiastically about t...
