Happy New Year! While I can't really believe it is 2016, I'm excited about what the coming year will bring. And it all starts with this, my first series of 2016 ... If you're like me, you have already failed in your resolution to eat better and hit the gym in 2016. {I really am going to start next week! Honest!} It's so easy to find ourselves discouraged when our dreams for the new year collide with our reality. And, so, it's possible that you are reading this on the first Monday of 2016 ...

Top 10 Posts of 2015
Can you believe we're less than a week away from 2016? This year feels like it passed so quickly. All those moms who smiled at me when my girl was a baby and said, "Don't blink!" were so right!!

(Unless, that is, our fifteen-year-old decides she wants to use the elf to torment her daddy at some point this month.)

December 1, 2015. Wow. This morning as I was having my quiet time, I realized this year has truly flown by. It feels like just yesterday I was sharing the 31 Verses to Pray for Your Marriage. We've got a busy week ahead, as I'm sure many of you can relate. Yesterday, in the email I sent out to all those who have subscribed {I really need a good name for you sweet friends who are getting my emails ... any ideas??} I shared five ways I'm seeking to abide during this busy holiday season. I've ... [Read More]
Living Counter Culturally … Only Through Christ
Welcome to day 29 of STAND OUT: 7 traits of a counter cultural life. You can find every post in this series indexed here. First off, let me just say THANK YOU for your enthusiasm for the Prayers For Girls community. Y'all, I've been overwhelmed by the response. As I wrote Monday, I truly believe God is raising up a generation of moms who are desperate to pray for their children and who are committed to making His Word the foundation of their prayers. What a powerful thing it is when we pray ... [Read More]
