A few years ago, my son attended a revival group in a neighboring city through our Church. It was the first time he’d experienced something like that since our local community doesn’t have revivals. He had a great time and loved the high energy level that everyone had. Ministering to a group is a wonderful […]

As the weather gets cooler, I start to read more often and this weekend was no exception. With the cold damp weather, I was definitely in the mood for something dark and Rose Marie by Gary I. Coleman was the perfect choice for a weekend read. Thank you to the author for sponsoring this post […]

Bearing Witness was a fascinating look into the lives of a number of different martyrs in the Christian religion. The book is part of the Bearing Witness Stories Project, a collaboration of Anabaptists from a wide range of traditions.  […]

I’ve been working toward simplifying my life for about a year. Week by week, I declutter a bit more. I pare down my schedule. I turn off more notifications on my phone. It hasn’t been an easy journey. I’m used to being very busy all of the time, but it’s a journey that I needed […]
