Just Wondering if You’ve been Missing…
While losing my blogging steam (and gaining my writing my novel steam) it seems this wonderful column has been neglected. So if you’re a writing mom and want to be featured here, let me know! I’d love to give you a guest blog spot here, while my interviews are on hiatus. I’ll probably repost some…
Giving Back
Butchering chickens, wildcrafting, soap making, pressure canning, making herbal tinctures and supertonics–I’m fascinated by these basic survival skills, but primarily, I’m a homeschooling mom who loves to write. Meaning, I’m busy already and have plenty to learn! But to learn, one needs a teacher. Books and online resources can be excellent initiators to a subject,…
Can You Hear Me Now?
Again Jesus began to teach by the lake. The crowd that gathered around him was so large that he got into a boat and sat in it out on the lake, while all the people were along the shore at the water’s edge. Mark 4:1 NIV “You won’t believe what happened,” my husband…

Blogging Hiatus?
And I’m seriously thinking of extending it! Ever since ICRS I’ve been losing steam for blogging. I’ve cut down on the product reviews and blog tours I’m doing and no one seems to be complaining. My weekly blogging schedule has been slacking and I can’t seem to muster up the energy to do all the…
Poverty and Blog Action Day
“Out of the most severe trial, their overflowing joy and their extreme poverty welled up in rich generosity. For I testify that they gave as much as they were able, and even beyond their ability. Entirely on their own, they urgently pleaded with us for the privilege of sharing in this service to the saints.But just as you…
