Dino Footprints?
Need another clue? It’s a fossilized dinosaur print in the riverbed of a dinosaur state park! Pretty cool!

I’m addicted to blogs. I admit that’s stretching it but God’s been reminding me that whatever I do whether it’s blogging, or writing or homeschooling, I should do it all for the glory of God. (1 Cor 10:31) And that when my addictions get out of whack, his Grace is always waiting for me. Okay,…

I’ve been having trouble with Internet Explorer 6. My gmail type and visual draft on WordPress had shrunk and I didn’t know why. Heather suggested I try Internet Explorer 7 but when I downloaded it my computer slowed to a snail’s pace! It took me 20 minutes to get my email up where usually it…

I was reluctant at…

Read MoreWorship
I just finished reading Joyce Meyer’s book The Battle Belongs to the Lord. It’s amazing how fast I got through it while exercising on my elliptical machine 20-30 minutes 5 times a week. It was a great little book and a quick read about over coming life’s struggles through worship. What I took away…
Read MoreAn Introduction
Hello, my name is Dineen Miller, and I’m married to an atheist. Sounds like something you’d hear at an AA meeting, doesn’t it? Except this isn’t an addiction with a twelve-step plan to rehabilitation. Unlike an agnostic who neither claims faith nor disbelief, an atheist simply doesn’t believe God exists. There is no afterlife or…
