This guest blog is brought to you by four of the greatest gifts in my life - my kids!

As For Me
It's hard to believe we're almost halfway through December. The year is quickly coming to a close! Which also means I am almost done reading my Daily Chronological Bible. I have loved the accountability and discipline of daily reading, as well as seeing how God can bring to light and life certain verses at just … Continue reading As For Me

It's Sarah's story; it's her mom's story. I love a good story. I will say there are some hard-to-read parts of their story. … Continue reading Face the Pain
