Time-Out for Mommies

  I don’t know about you, but sometimes (okay, many times) I have to send my kids to a room or a chair to just chill out! It usually is met with protests, but as a general rule, works wonders to cool down tempers or make friends out of hostile siblings again. Lately, I’ve been

Reminding Ourselves to Remember God

  The sin that pops out over and over again to me as I journey slowly through the Bible with my kids is simple: We forget God. Adam and Even forgot about God when they ate the fruit from the tree. All the people from Noah’s time forgot God, except for Noah and his close

Confessions of a Reluctant Home Educator

  We were thrilled with our firstborn, but whenever people congratulated us, they usually added, “Enjoy your time with her. Soon she’ll be in school, and you’ll be writing again.” Sure, I’d silently retort, in about eighteen years. God had clearly blessed us with our daughter. He’d also made it clear we were to homeschool

Homeschool Moms Deserve Grace Too

Diabetes Detour

The reflection in the dirty, lead-stained mirror is a me I’m glad only strangers will see tonight. Leaning my forehead against the mirror, I let the steaming water wash over my hands. We’ve been here for hours. Tears roll down my face. Choking back a sob, I turn and look at my twelve-year-old son in

Teaching Children What Scripture Teaches About Money – Part Two

  How do we teach children to have a biblical and balanced view of money? Part One displayed how young George Muller went to Scripture to establish his personal finances; likewise, his pattern for ministry would be no exception.

Teaching Children What Scripture Teaches About Money – Part One

  How can we teach children to have a biblical and balanced view of money? More importantly, how do we teach them to open God’s Word for themselves, hiding those biblical precepts in their hearts? How does our God, Who knows our needs before we even ask Him (Matthew 6), view material resources that make

  When it comes to the education of our children, by what standards will we choose to live? 1 John 2:15-17 reads “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the

The Empty Playroom Floor is Their Canvas

  My kids can turn a clean space into a disastrous danger zone in about 15 minutes flat.  Thankfully, they have also learned, by frequent practice, how to turn that same space back into neatness, in about the same amount of time. I noticed a pattern, from when they were very small, that is still

Hey Mama Monday: Raising Up the Next Generation

  Hey Mama, May your children rise up and call you blessed. That’s in Proverbs 31, as you know. Sometimes you look at that and think, “Yeah, right.” It’s hard to see all the monkeys who constantly make bad decisions and whom you are always having to pull down off the walls. Popcorn. These kids
