So, I will be the first to admit that I love television. I’m a sucker for an hour long episode (well, 42 minutes). I like to just relax in front of our t.v. and slip away to another world for a while. The beauty of a television show – especially those “hour long” epi’s is…
My life according to Incubus
so, I wrote that last post – and it just flowed and I wasn’t even intending to blog about it, but obviously I needed to. My initial intention (and a much less productive one) was to do this: Pick Your Artist: Incubus Are you a male or female: Southern Girl Describe Yourself: Just a Phase…
dipping the toes in
I can’t believe how fast the last month has gone. Our mission trip was AMAZING (see my sermon blog for video/pictures). I’ve had some really good sabbath time.

First Mission Trip

email forwards
This one came across my inbox this morning from my mom. I don’t know that I had read it before… but it absolutely exemplifies what being a Christian means for me. ‘A woman’s heart should be so hidden in ChristThat a man should have to seek Him first to find her.’ When I say… ‘I…
