Walking on Water With Jesus
The story of Peter walking on water has been speaking volumes to me lately. I heard a teaching on it about a month ago and it sparked a new fascination in me. It’s one of those stories I’ve heard countless times since childhood, so it amazes me that God will speak something fresh and new…
Read MoreWhen You Feel Like You’ve Been Left Behind in This Publishing Journey
So this post has been sitting in my draft folder for while, waiting for the right time, or maybe for me to truly feel that I’ve conquered the “left behind” feeling so I can adequately encourage others. The truth is I still feel like I’ve been left behind at times, so maybe it’s time to set these…

Read MoreIt’s The End of Homeschool Catch Up Time of Year
I know when the temperature starts climbing that I need to get into “Ducks-in-a-row” mode. The things I put off during the holidays have spilled over into winter and now I need to set them all aside again to end my school year. Assigning grades, administering tests, and that oh-so large mountain of curriculum I…
Read MoreInterrupted by…Twitter
