Going Beyond – Hattiesburg
Sep 13, 2010This weekend was phenomenal. I so enjoyed spending the weekend with 1600 women in Hattiesburg. Our time together in God’s Word and in worship was stirring. Yet, equally impactful was our unified effort to bring solution to women and children in need in the area. I’m so glad Mississippi will be different as a result […]
Read MoreWhich Hat Are You Wearing?
Sep 12, 2010The Women’s Ministry at our church kicked off the Fall season with a coffee time at a local coffeehouse yesterday. Our theme was “Hats Off to You, Girl!,” and we encouraged women to wear or create a hat that repesents something from their lives. Women wear so many different hats: mom, sister, friend, worker, taxi […]

Sep 09, 2010You might have heard about a new Christian film, Standing Firm, which has just been released on DVD. I had a chance to sit down and talk with Jurgen Beck, who composed the beautiful music score to the movie. If you have ever been curious about what it takes to create a project like this, […]

Sep 08, 2010A couple nights ago, I got a chance to do something that I NEVER get on opportunity to do. I sat in on a group Bible study. Women were gathering in someone’s home for their last week of the One In A MIllion study. I just loved being a fly on the wall as […]

Sep 06, 2010“I came, I saw, I conquered,” were the famous words of Julius Caesar in 47 BC. He was describing his victory in the Battle of Zela in his speech to the Roman Senate. From what I understand, that terse sentence was the full text of the speech. Wow. You’ve gotta admire a man of few words. He gotter […]

Sep 02, 2010There was a tv show by that name. Do you remember it? Bill Cosby was the host of this hilarious program that showcased bright children answering questions on very adult topics. Their responses were often eye opening, but always brought on knee-slapping laughter from the audience in the studio – and the audience on their […]

Sep 01, 2010Rules for Self Discovery 1. What we want most; 2. What we think about most; 3. How we use our money; 4. What we do with our leisure time; 5. The company we enjoy; 6. Who and what we admire; 7. What we laugh at. ~A.W. Tozer
Read MoreNotes From My Quiet Time
Aug 31, 2010My personal quiet time as been filled with rich details about Solomon’s kingdom lately. I’m knee deep into 2 Chronicles, and I’m not studying it to teach it but just to be edified by it. There is certainly a difference. My “spiritual lenses” focus much more personally when I’m looking into the Scripture to hear […]
Read MoreHard to Believe
Aug 30, 2010I keep telling Priscilla that her boys are going to grow up fast. But I know that’s hard to believe – because I’ve been right where she’s at in motherhood. When the days stretch on and on……and you just can’t wait until they GET OUT OF WHATEVER STAGE THEY’RE IN! (I said that a lot.) […]
