Well, May 18th has come and gone, and the long-awaited appointment to find out the gender of the baby has finally been had. Before I proceed, I must give a little backstory: I recently attended a Remedy Drive concert in New Jersey where pastor / author Jarrod Jones happened to […]
“Divine Increase for You and Your Children” by J.M. Farro
You don’t have to spend much time in the Scriptures to realize that our God is a God of increase. Most of the time, though, divine increase is not automatic. We must pray for it with pure motives, believing that the Lord desires to bless those who love Him and […]
“This Is Why We Do It” by Satellites & Sirens
The thing I love about driving through the west is that the terrain is so varied. One minute you’re driving through rolling hills that just have grass and the next thing you know, those hills have turned into mountains with very little foliage, but, rather, they’re made up of large […]
“Grace” by Satellites & Sirens
Hey everyone:) I’m writing you from sunny Los Angeles. I have to admit, I’ve always wanted to go to L.A. and now that wish is fulfilled. Granted, we haven’t really spent much time in the city, but mostly in the suburbs. For all intents and purposes, I’ll take that as […]
“You Don’t Need Any Helpers” by J.M. Farro
Yesterday was one of those days when my relationship with my husband, Joe, was sorely tested. With houseguests soon to arrive at our house, I was really counting on him to help me with some major chores. Unfortunately, he chose to begin working on another project that had absolutely no […]

Mothers have an incredible opportunity to impact their children’s lives in amazing ways. Perhaps you’ve heard me talk about my own dear mother, Rebecca, and what a great example she was to me. Throughout scripture, we can easily see how mothers have influenced their children in profound ways—some for good […]
“The Nashville Flood” by Satellites & Sirens
Hey, hey, hey, Jesus Freak Hideout-land. Here we are, back out on the road again. We had a nice break after the Blood, Sweat, and Rock ‘n Roll Tour. It was barely a week, but it was nice to be in Nashville for a few days. We hit the road […]
“April Showers Bring May Ponderings” by John DiBiase
It’s been awhile since I last blogged. Since then, I’ve transitioned over into a new decade of age (yep, I turned 30 last week! ugh!), we had our first baby shower with friends of ours in Nashville while we were visiting, and Amy just keeps getting… bigger. I’m finding that […]
