    The First Sunday of Advent

    Advent wreaths are not just a Christmas decoration. What they represent is pretty amazing. Even if you have never observed advent before, you can start today, on the first Sunday of advent. What is advent? Advent is the period of four Sundays and weeks before Christmas (or sometimes from the…

  • Scripture Sunday: Isaiah 40:31

    This post is going to be a bit transparent…but tomorrow is the first day of school with students. Not for my children- they’ve already gone back to school a few weeks ago. This is my districts’ first day. If I didn’t admit that I am a bit nervous, (lots of…

  • Sunday Musings: Praise You in this Storm

    Everyone has a song that holds some sort of special meaning for them. It may be a song that is tied to a happy memory or a song that is tied to a sad memory. For us, it’s a little of everything. “Praise you in this storm” by Casting Crowns…

    Sunday Musings: Celebrating Easter in God’s Word

    Several people have asked how we, as a Christian family, celebrate Easter with little children. In a world where Easter has become giant rabbits and hunting for eggs, how do we keep to the true meaning of Easter in our home? We do still do Easter baskets for our kids,…

  • Sunday Musings: Matthew 28:6

    My goal in the remaining weeks til Easter is to really pray and prepare my heart for not only Easter but our upcoming revival. I plan to share some different Printables for Easter related verses as well. If you don’t celebrate Easter, you may not know why Christians celebrate the…
