If you’ve ever been to the Oregon Coast on one of the first warm spring days of the year, you’d most likely be dressed in layers, with a thick hoodie (standard Oregon Coast beach wear) and jeans rolled up to your knees so you can walk near the water’s edge as the waves ebb and…
In my last post I shared a post about my very first workshop! This workshop goes through the Sermon on the Mount with Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones and his book Studies in the Sermon on the Mount. In that post I pointed out that the best way to learn from this book is to interact with…
This is a question I get so many times, from so many women. If you’re reading this blog, you are probably a woman serious about her spiritual life, and discouraged about it at times too. Maybe you’ve tried many different video driven, fill-in-the-blank Bible studies. And they’re good at the moment, but when it’s over…

This month in the Homestead Notebook I was able to add a few recipes we like and the plans for the backyard micro homestead this year. Plus, there are also some details on our chickens and plans to put together some DIY hoop tunnels for our garden this spring. First, the Cowboy Candy (also known…
One of the biggest questions I get from others is: “How do you get insights and real application out of the Bible?” I remember when I was younger and the boys were little and my life was hectic, that I KNEW the Bible had the answers, but HOW did I get to them? I could…
As I was reviewing our financial situation and looking ahead to what is coming up (huge tax bill, a son’s wedding, emergency fund replenished after our roof replacement) I knew I needed to get back to being as intentional as we were in 2009 when we started our Total Money Makeover with Dave Ramsey. So…
