But He was pierced through for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities: The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him, and by His scourging we are healed. Isaiah 53:5 (NASB) This was the verse impressed upon my heart this week as I pondered what memory verse the kids and I should learn for…

Over at Her View from Home: Homeschooling Ideas for the Conventionally Schooled Child
Have you ever wondered if homeschooling ideas could work for conventionally schooled children? Maybe you’re a parent whose children attend public school, but you feel they need something more. Could there be benefits to homeschool that kids in public school are missing out on? Well, it turns out your not alone in your musings. Other…
Merry Christmas!
As we approach the Christmas season, I pray that each of you find the opportunity to spend special time with those nearest and dearest to you. Christmas time is a time of giving. We give out of love and gratitude, not just because we feel compelled to. No! We give because we were given the…
November Hiatus
I know what you’re thinking. This is November. The infamous month where all writers disappear from the face of the web except for brief stints to post word count updates on their NaNoWriMo projects. So it’s only natural that you haven’t heard from me in a while, right? Well, as much as it pains me…
Too Much on the Plate
Do you ever wonder sometimes if you expect too much out of yourself? This constantly crosses my mind. Usually I dismiss it because…well let’s face it, I’m lazy. Have I mentioned I’m also a procrastinator? And a multitasker? This trio makes for one toxic cocktail. As a multitasker, I put so many irons in the…
I’m a Writer, Not a Brick Layer!
Lately, I’ve empathized with poor Dr. McCoy. No, it’s not just because I’m a Trekkie and he happens to be among my favorite characters. It’s actually deeper than that. I mean, really, why was it so hard for everyone to get it through their thick skulls that he wasn’t endowed with any other skill set…

Guest Blogging Today
Hello everyone! Well, after a long absence, I’m back up and running. I intend to regain a consistent presence here…or at least semi-consistent presence. Still have that novel to focus on. In the mean time, I hope you enjoyed the latest historical post on the anamchara. If you missed it, there’s no time like the…
When God Speaks
Any time someone says, “God must have a sense of humor.” I smile and nod. It’s true. I’ve seen the evidence of it time and time again in my life. You know what else is true? The times I experience His sense of humor in action, I also experience His profound love. His deep knowledge…
Hey! Long Time No See.
By now, you may seriously be contemplating if I’ve dropped off the grid. Never fear! I remain vigilantly at work here in Windy Wyoming. June proved to be an active month. Here’s a little recap…. The garden is finished and….surprise! It’s actually producing! And you thought I couldn’t do it. Okay, so maybe you didn’t…
