Today I’m finishing my interview with Sunshine, who worked through The Beatitudes Workshop. (You can read part one here.) The Workshop Sunshine is talking about is currently half off, as is the newly released second half of the study, this week only! Q: How do you avoid falling into the “checklist” trap, also known as…
First off, the second part of the series studying Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones’ Studies in the Sermon on the Mount is available now! (And it’s half off through next week!) I think this is the most important Bible study you can do, over the biggest sermon Jesus gave. But I don’t want you to just take…
These books were from the first part of 2022 and I finally got them added to my reading notebook. I guess I was mostly reading fiction (and one memoir) earlier this year! All these reviews are pretty poor, but as I’m working through The Well Educated Mind, I’m learning how to read and review books…
As many of you know, last year our youngest graduated from homeschool high school. I’ve been slowly re-adjusting how I spend my time and thinking about what to do in this next stage of life. As I’ve been adjusting to more quiet around the house, and actually having silence while I fold clothes or weed…

With the rise in prices, and the hit or miss availability of some items lately, I’m going back to what we did to survive our earlier years when we had small paychecks and a growing family. I’ve shared a favorite cookbook, a menu planning technique, and today I’m sharing a way that keep my pantry…
I’m back to taking notes on Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones sermon series, Spiritual Depression. These notes are from sermon 6, titled Vain Regrets. Dr. Lloyd-Jones addresses Christians who are crippled in the present from looking at the past. At first glance it seems to be directed solely to those who came to Christ later in life….
Food prices, gas prices, and inflation have us tightening our budget around here, and I’m going back to some of the things we did when we were broke with three young kids. I dug out my old More with Less cookbook, and today I’m going to share how we used to menu plan in a…
