Friendships are super important to me. I love keeping in touch with people and I’m very glad for social media for that reason.
This friend in particular, we’ve spent most of our friendship apart from each other. We got to know each other while she was across the globe serving as a missionary. We shared stories of Jesus and the Gospel and health and weight loss. We’ve been together in NC some, sharing stories of engagement, marriage, loss, struggles.
Bonnie asked me to take her and Chuy’s engagement photos and it was so much fun.
They’ve gotten married, we’ve moved away, they’ve had two beautiful little girls, and now are preparing to move cross country to serve our country in the Air Force.
B – girl, our friendship has survived and thrived over the years. Thanks for visiting me and bringing the girls. And bringing the owls, and the Pete the Cat books, and your love for conversations! Here’s to a trip to NM!

Are you ever confused by everything you see on the news? On your Facebook feed? In the your Twitter feed?
Do you ever wonder how you are supposed to respond to all the happenings that take over everyone’s conversation?
New Growth Publishers and Marvin Olasky have put together a book of short writings that will help you know how to think with a Gospel-centered world view. And there is nothing new under the sun. So, while these essays will eventually not be headliners – the problems they talk about will just happen in a new way. With new people. In a new country or city.
Sin affects everything in our world. And the entire world is groaning for the return of its Maker. And Olasky helps us think rightly about the events happening in our world. This is definitely one to read and discuss – or at least keep a journal on. It is not a quick read – even though the articles are quite readable in length. But, if you care about the world and how sin and the gospel impact our world, then you will want to read and digest the articles in here.
Thanks to Litfuse for this book. All opinions are my own.

As a Mom one of the character traits I want to instill in my boys is generosity. That means: toys, TV time, food, special treats, clothes, etc. In their little world, sharing the Paw Patrol fruit snacks is hard. But, God calls us to a life of generosity.
So, today, being Giving Tuesday, I want to help you help me give. I handlettered a Names of Jesus Advent print. It has 20 names of Jesus taken from a new book, Unwrapping the Names of Jesus. It is in gold and black. It will help you focus on the true meaning of this holiday season.
And 50% of the proceeds of this print will go to a missionary family that serves with the International Mission Board of the Southern Baptist Convention.
Thank you for helping me give,

These dear people have been friends of mine for almost 20 years and across the entire country. I’m so excited this family is back in the South for a little bit. I got to meet their youngest daughter, laugh, off-road it, and explore their family’s land for this family session. Enjoy. And stop sometimes and take photos of the pretty things you come across on your journey. And keep friendships! They are important!

I’ve not been this excited about a preschooler/toddler Bible in…EVER.
My friend Jared Kennedy makes this book a winner – by beautifully written stories and everything pointing back to Christ – for young kids. Of course I love the Jesus Storybook Bible, but its more for older children, say 5-6yo. But, this Bible, the Beginner’s Gospel Story Bible, is perfect for preschoolers. And that’s just where my boys are.
This Bible isn’t about us. Its not about how to get our kids to behave better or obey a list of rules (even good rules). This Bible is about Jesus. And that’s what the God Story is all about anyway.
Jared hits it out of the park with this one. And after we finish our current family worship book, and Advent, we are going to use his.
Thanks to Litfuse for this book. All opinions are my own.
