What if I Fly?
If you know me at all, you know that music is an integral part of my life – it is almost as important to me as Jesus, and my family, and oxygen. Music has provided a soundtrack to the highest highs and the lowest lows of my life. My favorite music tends to be Christian,…

Faithfully
“It’s been a long year, it almost took me down, I swear…” It has been around a year since I made a blog post. I never intended to go that long between posts, but…life. We’ve been busy doing the good things, the hard things, the everyday things. That line from the Toby Mac song “Faithfully”…

God of Everything
One of my favorite t-shirts has a graphic on it that says “The God of the Mountains is the God of the Valleys”, which is a line from a worship song called “Graves into Gardens”. (Shout out to the Goods and Better Store, which is where I got the shirt. They are a great company…

Soundtrack of Life

How do you measure a year?
Five hundred twenty-five thousand, six hundred minutes. Five hundred twenty-five thousand moments so dear. Five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes. How do you measure, measure a year? In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee (or diet Dr. Pepper) In inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife. In five hundred twenty-five thousand,…

Thanxiety
I think I have invented a couple new words! Well, not really new words but rather a combination of already-existing words. I’ll tell you what they are in just a paragraph or two, but first I want to let you know how this came about. Recently, in a series of teaching on Philippians at church,…

The Unfolding
In November of 2022, my husband Les and I got to sit down with Meredith Foster from WBGL Christian radio to record an episode of “The Unfolding” – an on-going podcast with more than 150 episodes to date. (That’s Meredith with me in the photo above.) New editions of the show, usually released weekly, tell…

Just for Fun
I enjoy sharing through this blog how God has been working in my life to heal me of cancer and a decades-long battle with anxiety and agoraphobia. For this post, I want to get a bit more lighthearted and share some of my favorite things I’ve experienced (so far) as I venture out after so…
