Why is Easter weekend such a big deal? I've mentioned before that reading through the Bible each year makes Christmas more and more special.

Women Who Hope in God’s Word

How To Put the Phone Down So You Can Rest
I have a new discipline that I'm working on. This is a little embarrassing - but I don't know how to relax without holding my phone or watching TV (usually at the same time).

It absolutely applies to the things we face today - uncertainty, cancellations, rules and restrictions, sickness, fear and unrest. This week I've been thinking about three pillars from the book Experiencing God (a study that deeply impacted me as a… Continue reading This Has Not Been Cancelled
