When the people of God get in trouble, you can be sure help is on the way. In the Book of Judges, we see how God puts people in positions of authority to calm the chaos. My favorite person He chose for this task is the surprising (especially for its time in history) choice of
Imagine trying to stay balanced on top of a ball. How long could you last? A few seconds? A few minutes? Perhaps longer? As busy women, so many of us want more balance in our lives, but balance is impossible to maintain. Sometimes life picks up speed without warning or slows down unexpectedly. Sometimes we’re
At their core, all girls think about the same issues. (That includes “girls” of all ages, by the way.) We all want to be known; we all want to be loved. And we all are. You are you. And you are His. It’s not really about the what but the Who. You are seen. You
Sarah Mae: I was determined to be the “good” mom, the straight arrow, responsible and loving, always mature and wise. I would be that woman on the cover of the 1950’s Good Housekeeping magazine. I thought I had a choice to be her, to be me, wrapped in her. Yes, that’s what my children needed,

This past New Year’s Eve, I turned 40. When I end and approach a decade, I like to spend time reflecting on where I can grow. I look forward to the next decade and the relationships that I will encounter. There will be many changes for me this upcoming decade as my children will turn
The sky was blue. The snow crisp white. The mountain slopes full of choices to be made. Which run will we take? A “blue run” is what we tackled first. This is how slopes are labeled by the ski officials. The officials whose job it is to inform skiers exactly what they’re about to get
