No One is Born an Asshole
Posted onLet’s say that one more time, not for shock value, but for the sake of truth and hopefully conveying my heart: No one is born an asshole.” This can be said a plethora of ways: jerk, cheater, meanie, bully, etc. But the reality is, we are all born little, sweet, and tender. Having had 3 babies, […]
What If…God’s not a Hater?
Posted onIn junior high I took part in a peaceful protest walk against abortion. As we walked quietly through the streets of downtown Phoenix, we prayed, strangers gathered with similar passion. Some people held signs with pictures of aborted babies, others with words or messages. I was young, and my eyes were affected by the sting […]
What If…God said, “Bang!”?
Posted onWe’ve read the account of Creation to our kids many times. Our oldest is in 6th grade and has gone to private, public, and home school during this time and has also learned about evolution. And this does not freak me out one bit. Because we talk about things at home, in the car, at […]
What If…God isn’t Santa Claus?

An Open Letter…to Everyone: My High School Do-Over
Posted on(*This isn’t a passive-aggressive “open letter”, rant-style, where I go off on your sucky behavior as a human, as it affects me or my people, but rather my own confession.) This past weekend I was curious. After several years on Facebook reconnecting with old friends and making new ones, I thought it would be fun […]
Lose Weight FAST!
Posted onThroughout history people have tried to be like God. Some have falsely abused power, wielding it over others, as if they knew the first thing about God and how He works…instilling fear to gain followers or a false sense of admiration or respect. Others have set up behavioral patterns, as well as religious observances, many […]
Thanks
Posted onOne of the perspective changes I had while Noah was in the hospital, and then since he passed away, is one of thankfulness. Growing up as a Catholic kid, it was regular practice to give thanks to God for each meal, pray every night for family, friends, neighbors and strangers, and say the words of […]
