I promise that’s not a snarky question. It’s simply one of many questions I’ve been asking myself these past few weeks. See, a month or so ago I made a Facebook post about the “Equality” and “My First Pride” baby onesies I saw in the Pride section at Target. I was deeply bothered by it,ContinueContinue reading “Am I A Homophobic, Self-Righteous, Hateful Bigot?”

On The Fence Between Christ And Culture
Dear Christian, Is it possible to be “on the fence” between Christ and culture? I mean, we know the Bible has always spoken strongly against the idea of being “lukewarm”. (Rev 3:16) And we know we’re called to suffer for Christ… Still, for a long while, here in America, it was easy enough to bowContinueContinue reading “On The Fence Between Christ And Culture”
“Are Men Really Stronger?” My Son Asked Me.
“Hey Mom, did you know that when a sea horse has a baby, it’s the BOY sea horse that has the babies???” We were heading back from Ryan’s soccer practice and something about my oldest knowing he has me all to himself makes for the most interesting conversations. (Or maybe it’s just that it’s theContinueContinue reading ““Are Men Really Stronger?” My Son Asked Me.”
Disney: Boycott Or No?
With Florida’s so-called “Don’t Say Gay” bill, came Disney’s ire. Along with that ire came the conservatives dismay and dilemma over Disney’s staunch support for teachers discussing sexual orientation, etc. with 4-8 year olds in the classroom. In case you somehow missed all this… here it is in a nutshell. Disney’s agenda is no secret.ContinueContinue reading “Disney: Boycott Or No?”
The Churches Role In A Generation Of Singleness
I got married when I was 21. In years passed that was considered average or even old. Now that’s considered young. Often too young. Did you know that, according to brides.com, the average age for marriage is on the rise finding that “only 29% of Americans age 18-34 were married in 2018, compared to 59%ContinueContinue reading “The Churches Role In A Generation Of Singleness”
She Created Culture: A Beauty AND A Beast
I remember the day my brother first mentioned a girl named Hannah. They’d gone out that evening and he and I were chatting afterward. Sean and I had always been close and as a protective and slightly jealous little sister, I’d always worried that Sean might marry someone I didn’t know or didn’t like. AndContinueContinue reading “She Created Culture: A Beauty AND A Beast”
My Apologies, Friends
I received an e-mail from a friend the other day. A friend who has often encouraged me to keep writing and striving to show grace… to point people to the Gospel and to God’s Word. Whether I agree with them or not… whether they’re “conservative” or “liberal”, red or blue, right wing or left wing.ContinueContinue reading “My Apologies, Friends”
An Open Letter Of Thanks
A letter to the truckers and everyone there with you… Thank you. Thank you for what you’re doing. Thank you for sitting in your truck day after day after day after day… for you, for those you love, for Canada… maybe for the world. Thank you for standing for what so many are thinking andContinueContinue reading “An Open Letter Of Thanks”
She Created Culture: Rainbows, Unicorns, and Monster Cookies
“Do you like being a mom?” My six year old comes up with the best questions. I knew my answer, of course, but I wanted to ask Ryan a question first. “Ummmm… well, do YOU THINK I like being a mom?” “Yeah!” came his quick and confident reply. I was honestly a little relieved. See,ContinueContinue reading “She Created Culture: Rainbows, Unicorns, and Monster Cookies”
She Created Culture: The Beauty Of An Open Door
“Where did you get your ideas for designing your living room?” my soon to be married friend asked me from across our dinner table. “I’m trying to collect some ideas!” The question caught me by surprise. It’s not a question I’d often been asked. I’m not the best at knowing what’s “in” or updating myContinueContinue reading “She Created Culture: The Beauty Of An Open Door”
