Easter Dinner
Priscilla | Mar 30, 2010Leave it to me to always find a way to turn our blog discussions back towards my absolute favorite topic of all time. FOOD! There’s nothing more tantalizing and delectable to discuss. Wouldn’t you agree? Especially when it’s with you . . . my friends. My friends who seem to enjoy exchanging and swapping […]
Read MoreThe Most Successful People Read
Linnae | Mar 29, 2010Hello to my favorite Going Beyond friends! It’s been a while since you were introduced to me but I’m so excited to be here with you today. I wanted to tell you about a Dave Ramsey event I attended here in Dallas a few weeks ago called EntreLeadership. I’m so glad I was able […]
Read MoreiPhones and Bibles
Priscilla | Mar 28, 2010There used to be a time when I’d be teaching, look down from the platform into the audience and see rows and rows of open Bibles strewn across people’s laps. Audience members would bring their personal copies of the Scriptures and follow along as I read. Things have changed and technology has advanced. Now, most […]
Read MoreGod’s Presence – Never Far
Rachel Anne | Mar 25, 2010The first of the Texas bluebonnets began to bloom this week. I had to smile when I saw my first blossom, because I nearly missed it on my determined march to the mailbox the other day. I was lost in plans and was organizing projects in my head as I strode down the gravel road. […]
Read MoreSpring Storms
Priscilla and Rachel Anne | Mar 24, 2010The first Spring storm rumbled through last night, and I listened to the thunder from the safety of my home. I love the new radar technology that allows me to see exactly where the storms are. Every channel carries minute-by-minute 3D doppler views that reveal each lightning strike, where the heaviest rain is, the […]
Read MorePopping Over to Say Hi
Rachel Anne | Mar 23, 2010I’ve always wanted to have friends that would just “pop over” to say hello. Doesn’t that sound delightful? God answered my prayers when Priscilla moved close to me and I LOVE that we can simply stop in, give a hug, chat for a few minutes and then continue on with our days. It’s like […]
Read MoreMeet Bobbie Houston
Priscilla |I’ve arrived safely and happily back in Dallas after some exciting and anointed days in Australia with my friends at Hillsong church. It’s been a delightful reunion with my sweet boys. I’ve spent the evening sharing with them wondrous stories of what God has done in the past couple weeks. They were intrigued and […]
Read MorePriscilla’s Back Home
Rachel Anne | Mar 22, 2010After an incredible time in Sydney, Australia, Priscilla is back in Texas. I’m pretty sure those Shirer boys (all four of them!) are glad to have her home . . . and I know she didn’t waste any time jumping right back into the rambunctious scene with them. Girl, get some rest! I know […]
Read MoreFollow the Leader
Priscilla | Mar 21, 2010I’ve been thinking a lot about leadership; what it really means and what it really requires. Honestly, any leadership role, whether it’s in your home, in a small committee, or over an entire company or organization, can be fairly daunting. What, with all those eyes peeled in your direction, waiting to see what you […]
Read MoreSisterhood Blessing
Priscilla and Rachel Anne | Mar 18, 2010My sister, Katherine, took one of her precious days off from work to help me yesterday. And it meant the world to me. It was a simple a project, really, but it had me stymied. I needed help figuring out how to landscape my front flowerbed, and I could not seem to make a […]
