What Skinny Jeans Taught Me About Confessing Our Sins

What Skinny Jeans Taught Me About Confessing Our Sins

December 8, 2017

My husband and I lead a marriage small group at our church. The topic of marriage, the importance of it to the Kingdom of God, and all the challenges that come with it, are close to our heart. I’ve written numerous times about our imperfect marriage. Our marriage is imperfect because we are imperfect. In fact, a statement of our imperfection might be an understatement. Let’s just say we’re daily ... View Post

How to Survive Pregnancy Loss as a Couple

How to Survive Pregnancy Loss as a Couple

September 1, 2017

How can you and your spouse survive the grief and loss of a pregnancy as a couple? Here is what I learned.  I lost my first baby only hours after I’d first heard the thump-thump of his heart during an ultrasound. Just six weeks along, our baby was all heart and yolk sac. When my body expelled that blip of baby I was alone. I remember the confusion of the pain, the cramping I thought was a ... View Post

Pinning the Imperfect Marriage

Pinning the Imperfect Marriage

June 12, 2017

I don’t Pinterest. At least I didn’t used to. I looked up healthy kids recipes once. That was a mistake. Apparently it’s not good enough to feed your children veggies; the carrots, cucumber and olives should be arranged into adorable, friendly penguins. Seriously. Who has time for that? I’m lucky if I feed my kids with sufficient speed to save me from the jaws of their fury. I’ve been known to ... View Post

In Who’s Targeting Your Marriage? I brought up the idea that our marriages have a target on their back because they’re important to God’s kingdom. As this series continues, I’m addressing the five ways Satan gets a foothold in our marriage, and how he saunters into our bedroom – sometimes with our inadvertent permission. So far we’ve covered Selfish Ambition, Temptation, Comparison, and Unity. ... View Post

Whose Standard Are You Measuring Against?

Whose Standard Are You Measuring Against?

February 15, 2017

Sometimes I wish my husband would close drawers. Like really. Take a step back, babe, and close a drawer. I have friends who love to share that their husbands do all the cooking. And one who’s gaining weight because her husband is such a good cook. Ya’ll, I didn’t even know that was a thing. Seriously. There are men who cook something more than chicken and eggs? Or who do more than watch the grill ... View Post

Who’s Targeting Your Marriage?

Who’s Targeting Your Marriage?

February 9, 2017

Is your marriage perfect? If you’re nodding, you’re lying. If you’re not lying, then we can’t be friends. I don’t have room for that kind of perfection in my life. Here’s why. My husband and I got into a disagreement this week. For the life of us we couldn’t see eye to eye. This was probably our 400th squabble this year. Not that I’m counting, and not that I'm prone to exaggeration. And even ... View Post

Holy Land Highlights: Where Was Jesus?

Holy Land Highlights: Where Was Jesus?

Three weeks ago, in a hot parking lot outside a Virginia Chuck E. Cheese, my husband and I stood in a circle, prayed over our two boys, said our goodbyes, and prepared our hearts for the trip of a lifetime. I cried the whole way to the airport, took a break as we went through…

Bring Your Light to the Fight

Bring Your Light to the Fight

My seven-year-old is a natural athlete. Whatever he attempts, he does well. And Avry wanted to learn to surf like the kids on YouTube. My husband is a radical cheerleader when it comes to his children, and so he bought a thick, short surfboard. Avry carried the board down to the surf, full of excitement,…

If you want the church to change, go and be the church

When was the last time you were involved in a heated discussion about the church? Maybe it was about your home church and something that drives you crazy. Or maybe some “crazy Christian” made a comment that offended you and a discussion ensued about how “the church” is a hot mess. I’ve witnessed and been…
