A Resolution Worth Keeping
“Prayer is the greatest of all forces, because it honors God and brings him into active aid.” ~E.M. Bounds~ A few weeks ago I found a treasure in my son’s school folder.

Erma Bombeck: When I Stand Before God
I first read Erma Bombeck’s humorous writings when I was in high school, and she instantly became a favorite for me. Of course, now that I’m a mom and a wife, I can relate to and giggle all the more at her writings. I’d love to share one of my all-time favorite quotes from her. […]

But recently, I discovered that foods with gluten don’t settle all that well with me. And so I’ve steered clear of many baked goods, including […]
What the Past Is For
I love biographies. And I’m especially fascinated by true stories that portray ordinary people doing heroic things. Perhaps that is why one of my favorite biographies is The Hiding Place by Corrie ten Boom. I marvel at the courage and godliness that Corrie and her family showed in a dark time in our history. In […]
