Change CAN Be Glorious
I say that almost as a declaration, because it truly can be glorious, if you trust the One bringing the change. In the past 10 months there has been a lot of change in our lives. The great part is that the Lord had been preparing our hearts for this change in many ways. So when it was time, by His grace, we were ready to take the leap. Our first leap was leaving Bloomington or more specifically, Bethany’s campus, which we LOVE because of so many, who have become family to us. It came as a shock to me because I thought we’d be at Bethany for a very long time. That alone jolted me. I hadn’t even thought past Bethany.But the Lord spoke several times in undeniable ways that we were to leave Bethany and live in community with the Miller family (Tim,...

Words, words, how do I put into words my deep love and affection for you? I know holidays have come to mean very little to us. You’ve challenged me to let go of the pressure and expectation around holidays and just love and honor each other all the day’s we have breath in our lungs. But…today, as I look at these pictures of you with our kids. I can’t help myself. I truly am thankful for you. The love of the Father is in you and that love amazes me. I love how you love. Our anniversary of 10 years is just around the corner, but it feels as those we have just begun. There is so much more of you to take in and there’s no end to this beautiful journey of knowing you. Sure there are bumps, hills and even the mountains...

We had fun last night singing, reading the Word and talking about Arden’s day and the choices he made throughout the day. We talked about why it’s important to continue to repent for our sin and believe that Jesus really is coming back to judge the earth. In short, I wanted to just share a thought I had last night as we were putting Arden to bed. This particular night he wasn’t very excited about sleeping in his room because he didn’t like the fact that he was the only one on his floor of the house. (We live in community with the Millers and they are out of town this week.) We had just finished praying over each other as a family, so I decided to distract him with reading books, leaving the door open, playing music, then I simply...

Eliana Joy Most of you know that Eliana Joy is my little (almost) 8 month old. I like to call her “Little E”, “Chunky-monkey” and of course “Sugar-lumps.” One thing I love about my Eliana Joy is that she reminds me to smile, especially in the hard times. There are those moments when she’s the one bringing the “hard time,” but when that little girl smiles I can’t help but smile right back. And I’m reminded that it’s really not that bad. As my grumpy face is overtaken with joy, my heart usually follows. Love you Little...
